If limestones expand on heating and thereby receive a permanent set, as this paper demonstrates, do we not have here a means of determining the maximum temperature to which a particular limestone was ever subjected and indirectly thereby its maximum depth of burial or other geothermal events in its history?</span></p> application/pdf 10.1029/TR034i006p00953 en American Geophysical Union Discussion of “expansion and increase in permeability of carbonate rocks on heating” article
