Contribution of cold seep barite to the barium geochemical budget of a marginal basin

Creator:

McQuay, Erica L.

Abstract:

Large barite (BaSO4) structures mark cold seeps in the southern San Clemente Basin. Barium flux to San Clemente sediments is two to three times greater than fluxes measured in surrounding California Borderland basins. Analyses of sediment trap material, water column samples, sediments and pore water indicate that expected bariumbearing mineral...
