Abstract

Abstract ––Carbonaceous (shungite) rocks have high contents of trace elements, which can get to the environment through natural weathering. Shungite rocks are a group of Precambrian carbonaceous rocks of volcanic and sedimentary genesis in Karelia. In this work we present results of studying the mineral and geochemical compositions of shungite rocks at their outcrops on the shoreline of Lake Onega. The interaction of the Onega waters with shungite rocks led to: (1) the removal of most elements, except for K, Mn, Ba, and Mg, whose contents in the rocks increased; (2) the formation of an assemblage of secondary minerals, such as hematite, jarosite, goethite, chalcocite, anglesite, brookite, and Mn hydroxides. Based on the results obtained, we propose a model of the transformation of high-carbon (shungite) rocks by the Onega waters.
