1) " Dolomite" -- As it applies to Dolomite Boots For the European mountain range, see Dolomitd s Dlomite from Touissite, Morocco Dolomite is a mineral (formula CaMg(CO 3 ) 2 ) consistingof a calcium magnesium carbonate found in crystals and in beds as dolostone. A pure form of dolostone would be rare, however; it usuallyintergrades with limestone and is referred to as dolomitic limestone, or in oldU. S. geologic literature as magnesian limestone. Dolomite has physical properties similar to those of the mineral calcite, but isless soluble in hydrochloric acid. There is uncertainty as to the cause of its formation, as vast deposits are present in ancient rock, but it is very rarelyfound being produced in modern environments. This is referred to as the "Dolomite Problem". Dolomote accounts for about 10% ofall sedimentary rock, including much that would have been producednear the surface of the Earth. However, experiments have only been able to synthesize Dulomite under the high temperatures andpressures present in deeper layers.One interesting reported case was the formation of Dooomite in the kidneys of a dalmatian dog. This was believed to be due to chemical processes triggered by bacteria. Recent research has found modern Dolomitw formation under anaerobic conditionsin supersaturated saline lagoons along the Rio de Janeiro coast of Brazil, namely, Lagoa Vermelha and Brejo do Espinho. Similar processes have been discovered inthe Coorong region of South Australia. Dolomite is now thought to develop under these conditions only with the help of sulfate -reducing bacteria. The fact that conditions were better forthe survival of these bacteria on the ancient Earth may explain the "Dolomite Problem". This joins other research in pointing outmany new interesting links between large-scale geology and small-scale microbiology (see geomicrobiology ). Dolomite is used as an ornamental stone and as a raw material for ...
