A Model of Granular Materials Cemented by Bacterial Calcite
Nature aggregates granular materials such as sand, silt and clay into form beach rocks, and other forms of microbialites. A common bio-geo-chemical cementation occurs due to the mineralization of calcium through bacterial enzymatic action, often called Microbial Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitati...
