An Experimental Study of the Formation of Talc through CaMg(CO3)2–SiO2–H2O Interaction at 100–200°C and Vapor-Saturation Pressures

Figure 6

Raman spectrum of solid relicts after heating at 200°C for 60 days. The reference spectra of dolomite, calcite, and talc were also shown for comparison. The dolomite spectrum was acquired from the sample before heating. The calcite spectrum was acquired from crystalline calcite, and the reference spectrum of talc was cited from an open database hosted by the Department of Geosciences at the University of Arizona (RRUFF Project, http://rruff.info/index.php).
