Geological and geochemical evolution of forming of kalium-rich brine in Sichuan Basin.

The article presents a study which discusses geological and geochemical evolution of forming of kalium-rich brine in Sichuan Basin in China. Topics discussed include effects of numerous distinct tectonic events on salt brine reservoir in Sichuan Basin, varied ion concentration of sea water due to sea water evaporation, occurrence of small amount of evaporites, and occurrence of celestite precipitate.
