Scientific paper

Strontium isotopic compositions of formation waters in sedimentary basins relate primarily to Sr from dissolution-replacement of alkali feldspar minerals, dissolution-recrystallization-precipitation of marine carbonate and sulfate minerals, and illitization. Formation waters in sedimentary basins are often depleted in K but enriched in Rb relative to evaporated seawater and have K / Rb ratios commonly between 200 and 2000. The K and Rb characteristics of formation waters suggest that deep burial conversion of smectite to illite has a major influence on the evolutionary history of these solutes.
