Repetto Formation, Los Angeles Basin (13)

Comments on Geologic Parameters

13 Rock/Water Reaction:

Mineralogy data are presented in Conrey (1967), and water-chemistry data are listed in the California Department of Conservation (1991). Reactive phases such as feldspar and glauconite suggest that the potential for reaction of minerals with high CO₂ brine is moderate to high, depending on amount and composition of feldspar.
