Gomes et al. (2024) Early diagenetic evolution based on petrography and stable isotope analysis in the Barra Velha formation of the Brazilian Pre‐Salt, The Depositional Record

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: In their recent paper, Gomes et al. (2024) offer a detailed analysis of the mineralogical and diagenetic characteristics of the Aptian Pre-Salt in the Santos Basin.While their work enhances understanding of the Barra Velha formation (BVF), key aspects, especially the genesis and sequence of dolomite phases, require further discussion.This comment addresses their interpretations of dolomite formation, diagenetic timing and isotopic signatures, proposing alternative perspectives to improve comprehension of diagenetic processes.
