🌟 Exciting Research Alert! 🌟 📢 We’re thrilled to announce our latest publication in Minerals MDPI (Volume 14, Issue 12): 🖼 Cover Story: Transformation of Mackinawite to Interlayered Greigite-Pyrrhotite and Pyrite in the Gaoping Submarine Canyon Sediments off Southwestern Taiwan 📖 Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/d5ZxVzUQ ✍ Authors:Ko-Chun Huang & Wei-Teh Jiang 🏢 Affiliation: National Cheng Kung University 🔬 Research Highlights: ✨ Discovery of Metastable Greigite-Pyrrhotite Layers Interlayered greigite-pyrrhotite forms through epitactic segments of cubic and hexagonal close-packed sulfur atoms, transitioning to pyrite in sulfidization zones. 🪨 Mackinawite Preservation at Depth Deeper sediments contain largely preserved mackinawite within iron-monosulfide micronodules, showing partial replacement but minimal pyrite neoformation. ⚙️ Unique Topotactic Relationships The transformation aligns as ⟨110⟩Grg//⟨110⟩Po//⟨100⟩Mkw and {111}Grg//(001)Po//~{011}Mkw, driven by dissolution and epitactic reprecipitation. 🌱 Mechanism of Change A process involving interface-coupled dissolution and reprecipitation, with partial oxidation, creates intertwined greigite and pyrrhotite layers. These findings provide critical insights into mineralization and sulfidization processes in marine sediments. 🌊 📢 Stay tuned for more updates! #Geoscience #MarineSediments #Mineralogy #Sulfidization #ScientificResearch 👉 Follow Minerals MDPI for more groundbreaking studies in mineral science!
