Abstract

The article provides information on a study of the biomineralization processes as well as magnetic and thermal properties of iron concretion found in Bao Lok, South Vietnam. It states that biomineralization process has an important role in nature like in mineral formation from living organisms. It states that iron concretions' structure and composition depict the role of biochemical reactions in deposition. It also features the macro and micro-heterogenous structures that contain crystalline and biomorphic aggregates.
