Isotopic composition of salt efflorescence from the sandstone castellated rocks of the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin (Czech Republic) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The origin of sulphates in sulphate-rich efflorescences on quartz sandstones with a clay matrix, exposed in rural areas of
the Czech Republic is interpreted, based upon an isotopic study of S and O. Sulphates such as gypsum and/or alums exhibit
δ34S ranging from +1.3 to +6.1‰ and δ18O from +5.3 to +8.8‰. The low variability of S and O isotopes indicates a common source of the sulphur and a similar mode
of sulphate formation. Atmospheric sulphates with a similar isotopic signature occur in the area, due to the combustion of
sulphurous coal in power plants, located a few tens of kilometres from the sampling points. The sulphates crystallize from
supersaturated pore waters that represent atmospheric precipitation, rich in sulphates, having percolated through the porous
sandstone system. The previously proposed model of efflorescence growth (that it is due to the oxidation of pyrite) can be
excluded, due to both the rare occurrence of pyrite and also to its different isotopic signature (δ34S about −22‰). Although gypsum prevails in the central and eastern part of the studied area, the north and north-west of the
Bohemian Cretaceous Basin (the most polluted region) exhibits a significant presence of alums (NH4
+ or K+−NH4
+-rich). Formation of alums can be explained by the partial dissolution of clay minerals or feldspars present in the sandstone
matrix. Release of alumina from these phases is facilitated by the low pH of the precipitation (pH 4–4.5) and also locally
by organic acids, traces of which were found in the studied efflorescences by the use of infrared spectroscopy. 相似文献
