[Sédimentation] par précipitation de substances en solution dans l'eau (éventuellement biochimique, si des organismes catalysent la réaction). 2, record 1, French, - s%C3%A9dimentation%20chimique
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
La sédimentation biochimique, ou chimique pure dépose les éléments soustraits par l'altération aux masses continentales et entraînés par les eaux courantes. Exemple : sur les plates-formes épicontinentales stables, dépôt sédimentaire de grandes concentrations d'oxydes de fer (ex. Lorraine), de manganèse (Caucase, Ukraine). 3, record 1, French, - s%C3%A9dimentation%20chimique

Selon Heinrich Holland, de Harvard, ces formations de fer rubané [...] résultent d'une sédimentation chimique : de l'oxyde ferrique a précipité quand de l'eau de mer froide [...] est entrée en contact avec des eaux de surface très oxygénées. 4, record 1, French, - s%C3%A9dimentation%20chimique

Proceso que origina la formación de algunas rocas sedimentarias por precipitación y sobresaturación. 2, record 1, Spanish, - sedimentaci%C3%B3n%20qu%C3%ADmica
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Las rocas sedimentarias de génesis química tienen textura análoga a la de las rocas ígneas intrusivas y a la de algunas metamórficas, puesto que se originan por precipitación de substancias de una solución sobresaturada, seguida por lo general de reacciones, a menudo de carácter metasomático, del material sólido con las aguas intersticiales, recristalización y aumento progresivo del tamaño de los cristales durante la diagénesis. 3, record 1, Spanish, - sedimentaci%C3%B3n%20qu%C3%ADmica
