2020-9-5 Abstract Concretions cemented by iron oxide are abundant and diverse in the Jurassic Navajo Sandstone of southern Utah. Some of these structures are considered terrestrial analogs for concretions imaged on Mars. The Navajo concretions can be spheroidal, pipelike, or tabular with multicompartmented boxworks. These iron oxide concretions typically display a rinded structure: dense sandstone ...

MoreThe Kanab Wonderstone is sandstone (Shinarump Member, Chinle Formation) that is cemented and stained with iron oxide. The iron-oxide cementation and staining in these rocks have been considered examples of the Liesegang phenomenon, but we will show
More2009-12-1 Spheroidal concretions composed of an iron oxide-rich cemented outer rind and a weakly-cemented core of bleached (iron depleted) sandstone are abundant in the Jurassic Navajo Sandstone of the Colorado Plateau. The formation of the spheroidal concretions has been previously described as a result of advective mixing between Fe(II)-rich reducing fluids with oxidizing fluids resulting in the ...
MoreConcretions with thick, iron oxide–cemented rinds and lightly cemented, iron-poor sandstone cores are abundant within the Navajo Sandstone near the southeast flank of the Escalante anticline (Utah, United States). Previous workers suggested the spheroidal concretions as analogs for Martian “blueberries” (hematite concretions), and linked ...
More2015-4-26 rinds of iron-oxide–cemented sandstone. The internal structure and distribution of these features reveal their origins as iron-carbonate concretions that formed within a large-scale fl ow system that was altered dra-matically during Neogene uplift of the Colo-rado Plateau. With rise of the Plateau, the iron-carbonate concretions passed upward
More2016-6-3 Jurassic Navajo Sandstone that have external rinds cemented by iron-oxide and iron-poor cores have been recently identified as products of changing redox conditions during late diagenesis (Loope et al. 2010, 2011; Loope and Kettler, 2015; Kettler et al. 2012; Weber et al. 2012).

More2012-8-17 Apparent aspect ratios in both iron oxide-cemented and non-cemented laminae fall mostly between one and two. Mean aspect ratios for non-cemented and iron oxide-cemented grains are 1.77 ± 0.6 (1σ) and 1.81 ± 0.70 (1σ). The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test confirmed a small, but significant difference between the aspect ratios of sand grains in ...
