AN INVESTIGATION OF THE INTERCEPT METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE PROPORTION OF DOLOMITE AND CALCITE IN MIXTURES OF THE TWO: II. Experimental rates of solution of dolomite and calcite in samples consisting of a number of crystals

Experimental results are presented which support conclusions derived from a theoretical analysis of the log V vs. t plot, representing the rate of solution of dolomite consisting of a number of crystals. Experimentally determined rates of solution of dolomite and calcite are presented. The intercept method for determining the proportion of dolomite and calcite in mixtures of the two is evaluated on the basis of the theoretical and experimental results.
