Abstract

ABSTRACTThe Sr2+ content of Barbudan limestones is proportional to the aragonite content. The Sr2+ content of calcite which has replaced aragonite varies from 3000 p.p.m. in the youngest limestones to 50 p.p.m., average values are approximately 300 p.p.m.The (mSr2+/mCa2+)L ratios from well waters within the limestone fall within the predicted values assuming KSrC∼0·1. The high (mSr2+/mCa)2+L ratios expected by a lower value of KSrC do not occur.The build up of (mSr2+/mCa2+)L ratios seen in waters from Barbados is not seen in the well waters from Barbuda. The Sr2+ content of calcite is generally lower than is seen in Barbados, but similar to that seen in parts of the Miami Oolite. Diagenesis of aragonite in Barbudan limestones is probably occurring in a more open system than in Barbados.
