Sažetak
Sedimentological and geochemical characteristics of aragonite-rich sediments in semi-enclosed, karstic, marine lakes on the island of Mljet (Adriatic Sea), have been investigated. The lakes and their sediments are a unique sedimentological environment characterized by authigenic formation of aragonite mud in a restricted Mediterranean environment. The results have shown that distribution, diagenesis, and the historical record of the presence of trace metals are mostly dependent on sedimentological processes associated with the inorganic formation of aragonite, and prevailing physico-chemical conditions.
