This paper addresses the nature of incongruent dissolution of calcite in glacial settings using an experimental approach. Various CaCO 3 samples were comminuted using two contrasting techniques (dry machinemilling, and handgrinding of an icewater mixture) and dissolved to calcite saturation in both highpCO 2 (10 −2 atm) and lowpCO 2 (10 − = atmospheric) .
