Experimental mineralogical replacement to investigate the role of texture on interface morphology, reaction kinetics and pore-scale transport during metasomatism

Dolomitization is a key diagenetic process that reorganizes porosity and permeability in carbonate rocks, yet the coupling between interface kinetics and transport heterogeneity remains poorly constrained. We performed time-resolved hydrothermal dolomitization (metasomatism) expe...
