- W4295015108 abstract "The fate of organic matter in deep-buried marine sediments determines the formation of hydrocarbon reservoirs, shapes the deep biosphere, and affects the global carbon cycle. Several geochemical processes such as silicate weathering, iron and manganese (hydr)oxide reduction, and sulfate reduction influence the remineralization of organic matter in buried sediments. However, little information on deep-seated organoclastic sulfate reduction is available and the involved geochemical processes are largely unknown. Here, authigenic carbonates recovered from Ship Shoal Block 296 (SS296) of the Gulf of Mexico, all dominated by low-magnesium calcite, were investigated to constrain organoclastic sulfate reduction in deep-buried sediments. The SS296 carbonates had been previously suggested to be of a deep origin and transported upward by salt diapirism. The presence of cone-in-cone textures in samples 3110R1 and 3110R2 as well as vitrinite reflectance values of 0.48% to 0.58% indicate carbonate formation at a relatively deep burial. Likewise, clumped isotope thermometry yielded formation temperatures from 45 °C to 53 °C for sample 3110R1, 60 °C for sample 3110R2, and 11 °C to 37 °C for sample 3110R3. In spite of formation at greater depth, the temperatures of samples 3110R1 and 3110R2 are still within the temperature range of microbial sulfate reduction, reflecting formation depths between 1 km and 2.7 km. The presence of framboidal pyrite and its relatively low δ34S values (−27.8‰ to +11.5‰) agree with the occurrence of microbial sulfate reduction during carbonate precipitation. The carbon isotopic composition of the carbonates (δ13C: −16.6‰ to −8.9‰) and enclosed organic matter (δ13Corg: −26.8‰ to −20.5‰) suggests that organic matter is the dominant carbon source of carbonate minerals. This study confirms that microbial sulfate reduction occurs in deep-buried sediments, driving the degradation of organic matter. Our findings suggest that organoclastic sulfate reduction might be common in deep-seated sedimentary environments, controlling the fate of organic matter in deep subsurface environments and affecting the global carbon cycle." @default.
