The role of telogenetic injection of magmatically derived CO2in the formation of dawsonite from the Castillo Formation, Chubut Group, Patagonia, Argentina

We report the occurrence of dawsonite, NaAlCO3(OH)2, in volcaniclastic rocks of the Albian hydrocarbon reservoir Castillo Formation, Golfo San Jorge Basin, neighboring the Cañadón Asfalto Basin in Patagonia; this is the first known occurrence in Argentina. Dawsonite replaces crystals pseudomorphical...
