EMU Notes in Mineralogy 10

Published by the European Mineralogical Union and the Mineralogical Society of Great Britain & Ireland

On the surface of the earth, the intermingling of water and minerals gives rise to a diverse suite of reactions that determine the purity of water we drink, the fate of contaminants we emit, and the composition of minerals and biominerals that we use to interpret past environmental conditions from the sediment archive. Human societies have ubiquitous exposure to the outcome of these mineral–water reactions. Understanding in detail the ion partitioning in mineral–water interactions is of fundamental importance to geochemical studies and ultimately to society.
