Optimization of the acetic acid method for microfossil extraction from lithified carbonate rocks: Examples from the Jurassic and Miocene limestones of Saudi Arabia

An optimization experiment with different acid concentrations was carried out to assess the use of acid to minimum sustainable limits for the extraction of microfossils from indurated limestones. Two different limestone formations of Jurassic and Miocene ages were tested. Different concentrations of...
