👉 Fluids, particularly aqueous fluids rich in dissolved minerals, play a crucial role in various geological processes. These minerals, often originating from the breakdown of rocks and minerals through weathering, can dissolve into water and form fluid solutions. These fluids are essential in transporting dissolved ions and elements through the Earth's crust, contributing to the formation of hydrothermal vents, mineral deposits, and even influencing the chemical composition of groundwater. The presence of these minerals in fluids can significantly impact rock alteration, mineral precipitation, and the overall geochemical dynamics of the Earth's systems.
