Siderite aggregates are uniformly distributed in voids between ooids, peloids and quartz fragments. Siderite concretions may be ellipsoidal or spherical shapes. Diameter of spherical concretion varies from 15 to 25 μm. Pyrite framboids (Fig. 3 I), rarely galena, wurtzite, pyrrhotite (Fig. 3 F–G) occur as authigenic minerals along with siderite.

The replacement of siderite–pyrite (1) paragenesis with siderite–goethite one is caused, first of all, by the growth of redox potential in neutral or weakly acidic environment with SiO 2 saturation (see Fig. 7). The latter circumstance is indicated by joint crystallization of quartz with pyrite, siderite, and goethite. On the contrary, the ...
