Dolomites: A Volume in Honour of Dolomieu is a scholarly compilation of 23 peer-reviewed papers derived from the 1991 Dolomieu Conference on Carbonate Platforms and Dolomitization in Ortisei, Italy. The volume commemorates the bicentennial of Deodat de Dolomieu's seminal 1791 publication, which first detailed the mineral dolomite. Contributions from leading geoscientists explore recent advancements and persisting challenges in the study of dolomitization processes, carbonate sedimentology, and related geochemical phenomena. The collection serves as a critical resource for sedimentary geologists and petrologists, offering insights into both fundamental science and practical applications in fields such as petroleum geology and mineral exploration. Bruce H. Purser is a distinguished geologist specializing in carbonate sedimentology. He has contributed extensively to the understanding of sedimentary processes in marine environments and has held academic positions at several institutions, where he has mentored numerous students in the field of sedimentary geology. Maurice E. Tucker is a renowned British sedimentologist and Emeritus Professor at Durham University. His research focuses on carbonate sedimentology and diagenesis, and he is the author of several influential textbooks and scientific papers that have shaped modern understanding of sedimentary rocks. Donald H. Zenger was an American geologist recognized for his work on dolomitization and carbonate platforms. His research has provided significant insights into the geochemical and structural aspects of dolomite formation, contributing to the broader knowledge of sedimentary geology
