Granite Hydrolysis to Form Deep Brines
Reaction path calculations suggest that water fixation by zeolite and chlorite formation can account for much of the high salinity of deep brines in contact with deep granites, as well as their Ca/Na ratios, which reflect the rock-dominated chemistry of such brines. Resultant brines, undiluted by th...
