Description

Preliminary study on lime mortars used for stone masonry of the Great Wall built by Ming Dynasty in China. Photomicrograph of a thin section in cross and plane polarised light: the brighter mineral grains in the picture are dolomite, and the darker grains are calcite. The specimens that appear in the magnesite quarry exploited in Eugui, Esteribar, Navarra (Spain) are considered among the best in the world. The brine is also dense, so it sinks into the pore space of any underlying limestone ( seepage refluxion), flushing out the existing pore fluid and causing dolomitization. New experiments and the optimisation of lime mortars might be necessary to avoid new damage to historic structures.

Likewise, geologists have not been successful at precipitating dolomite from seawater at normal temperatures and pressures in laboratory experiments.

Megan Hughes has a passion for plants that drives her to stay on top of the latest garden advancements and time-tested ways of growing great plants. The predominantly submicroscopic hydraulic phases present in the natural binders due to the comparatively low firing temperatures are typical for historic mortars (Gödicke-Dettmering 1996; Hughes et al. As a result, attempts to precipitate dolomite from seawater precipitate high-magnesium calcite instead.

Dolomitic lime is a type of limestone that contains calcium carbonate, and is used to help reduce the hardness of water. The texture of dolomite often shows that it is secondary, formed by replacement of calcium by magnesium in limestone.The results of bulk densities and capillary water absorption from selected mortars are reported in Table 1. Following the new principles and guidelines, repointing, grouting and partial rebuilding to the Wall head shall be applied to preserve the historic construction in situ. The magnesium ion is a relatively small ion, and it acquires a tightly bound hydration shell when dissolved in water.

As the light microscope can visualise voids with a size of > 10 − 6 m, only a few capillary pores (10 − 5 m – 10 − 8 m) are visible.

These values also correspond exactly to the unpublished results of the previously examined larger series of mortars of calcium-rich lime binders of the Great Wall.

Almost all dolomites are believed to be produced by recrystallization of preexisting limestones, although the exact details of this dolomitization process continue to be debated. Also good at breaking up clay, especially reactive clays and can improve the structure of most soils.

Little dolomite is found in Cenozoic beds (beds less than 65 million years old), which has been a time of generally low sea levels. In 1791, it was described as a rock by the French naturalist and geologist Déodat Gratet de Dolomieu (1750–1801), first in buildings of the old city of Rome, and later as samples collected in the Tyrolean Alps. All thin section micrographs of the dolomitic lime mortar of JMY show spherulitic carbonate structures (Fig.The most obvious characteristics of the Ming Great Wall are external masonry walls made of natural stones, bricks and lime mortars. The presence of magnesium sulfates on masonry surfaces correlates with dolomitic lime mortars, as observed in Europe (Siedel and Laue 2003).
