	SIDERITE (Iron Carbonate)
		The word siderite is used in a number of rarer minerals and except in the fact that they all contain iron, they are otherwise unrelated to siderite.
		Siderite is roughly the equivalent of calcite but with iron replacing the calcium.
		Siderite is fairly easy to distinguish from calcite by its higher specific gravity and hardness and less vigorous reaction to acids.

	SIDERITE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Siderite is usually a pale yellowish-green when fresh, but the colour is often masked by darker minerals, or by orange-red alteration to hematite, particularly on a weathered rock surface.
		Siderite can also occur as a fine or coarse-grained cement within pore spaces; it is fairly soft (4-4.5 on Moh Scale); it may not react with hydrochloric acid, or may bubble very slowly as carbon dioxide is released.
		Siderite concretions from Carboniferous floodplain and lacustrine mudstones of northern England, and Jurassic marine ironstones of southern and eastern England were the most important iron ores in the British iron and steel industries from the eighteenth century until the 1970’s.

	Iconofile Store: Product: Siderite
		Siderite is iron carbonate, an important iron ore of a light yellowish brown color, but sometimes also gray, yellowish brown, greenish brown or reddish brown.
		Siderite occurs mostly in sedimentary and hydrothermal environments, although it is also found in some igneous pegmatites (a variety of granite occurring in veins).
		However, since siderite is closely associated with iron oxide pigments such as goethite (ochre), it may be safe to assume that it has been in use for as long as ochre pigments.

	EO News: Thick Marine Beds of Siderite Suggest Early High Carbon Dioxide in Atmosphere - May 26, 2004
		Carbon dioxide and oxygen, not methane, were prevalent in the Earth’s atmosphere more than 1.8 billion years ago as shown by the absence of siderite in ancient soils but the abundance of the mineral in ocean sediments from that time, according to a Penn State geochemist.
		At the same time that siderite is missing from soils, it is abundant in ocean sediments before 1.8 billion years ago and formed thick bands of mineable ores.
		The high abundance of siderite in marine sediments and their carbon isotope ratios can be explained only if the carbon dioxide pressure in the atmosphere was more than 100 times, perhaps as much as 1000 times, higher than today’s level.

				Siderite, along with calcite and dolomite, is a common carbonate mineral in the overburden associated with Appalachian coal beds (Cecil et al., 1985; Morrison et al., 1990b).
		In addition to greater dissolution of siderite, high strengths and volumes of added acid may react with non-carbonate minerals such as secondary silicate clay minerals, resulting in an NP value that is not solely dependent on the carbonate content of the sample (Lapakko, 1994).
		Siderite is a common carbonate in many areas, but it is not a neutralizer since it will produce both alkalinity from carbonates and acidity from iron oxidation.

	Siderite: Siderite mineral information and data.
		Most often found in bedded sedimentary deposits with a biological component, with shales, clays and coal beds - suggesting that the siderite is biogenically created under low-oxygen and low-Eh conditions.
		It is also found in metamorphosed sedimentary rocks as more massively crystalline material, as a gangue mineral in hydrothermal deposits, and in pegmatites, including nepheline syenite pegamtites.

		Siderite is created in hydrothermal environments, in sediments together with organic material or below the oxidising zone in mines.
		Reacts with warm hydrochloric acid under release of gas, not as violent as calcite.
		The density of siderite separates it from dolomite (2.8-2.9) and ankerite (3.2).

		Authigenic siderite is common throughout the formation, either concentrated in distinct layers or as isolated rhombs.
		Both the elemental and carbon isotopic compositions of the siderite result from modification of the original marine pore waters during successive stages of microbial decomposition of organic matter.
		The oxygen isotopic compositions of the siderite indicate that early pore waters were depleted in 18O, perhaps as a result of water/sediment interaction.

		Different mechanisms for the formation of siderite in this environment are proposed, based on the results of environmental monitoring in the area.

		The quantitative elemental compositions of quartz and siderite cements were determined on polished thin sections covered with a thin layer of carbon, using a CAMECA SX 51 electron microprobe at 15 kV, operating with a 20 nA beam current and 0.25-0.5 m beam diameter.
		In the Tirrawarra Sandstone, quartz overgrowths and quartz grains are embayed by siderite cement.
		The first and second siderite cement generations were each followed by at least one dissolution event related to the tectonic episodes in the study area (Rezaee et al., 1997).

		Early cementation of these strata is evident by coexisting calcite and siderite cements that occlude 38 to 40% minus-cement porosity.
		Calcite cements are pervasive in the sandstone interbeds, while siderite cements are prevalent in the mudstone interbeds.
		Carbon and oxygen isotope (C-O) plot of the siderite cements shows a positive covariant trend which is interpreted to record mixing between meteoric phreatic and marine phreatic pore fluids.

	lunarcarbonate
		Comparing with the Raman spectra of standard siderite and goethite, the major peak of siderite and goethite (~1084cm-1 and 395cm-1) in studied sample are weak relative to other minor peaks.
		A general trend observed is that the siderite grains at the outside of the rock chip have better crystallinity, the siderite identified from the "inner grains" and from the veins have much poor crystallinity, which could be the result of a fast solidification in a much confined space.
		The exact Raman peak positions of siderite vary among the spectra taken from the different locations in the same grain or from different grains, which indicates the cation substitutions in these siderites.

	RESULTS
		On the basis of both smear-slide observations and XRD results, siderite occurrence is sporadic between 100 and 120 mbsf.
		Below 120 mbsf, disseminated siderite occupies 2-4 wt% of the sediment, or is present as small (<0.5-cm diameter) microcrystalline nodules of siderite occupying up to ~30 wt% (Table 3; Fig.
		As with dolomite, petrographic and SEM observations indicate that both disseminated and nodular siderite contains euhedral, microcrystalline rhombs, and is thus authigenic in origin.

	Complex compositional zonation in concretionary siderite: Implications for geochemical studies (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Siderite concretions are generally thought to be concentrically zoned, with the earliest siderite precipitated at the center and the latest at the outer edge.
		Both types are present throughout the concretion body, but the proportions of the two types varies systematically from the center to the outer edge of the concretion.
		Such data could be misinterpreted as reflecting a wide variety of siderite compositions, when in fact only two chemically distinct types are present.
