A characteristic feature in lava tubes from Hawaii, Azores and Canary Islands is the occurrence of black jelly-like speleothems. Here we describe the formation process of siliceous black speleothems found in a lava tube from La Palma, Canary Islands, Spain, based on mineralogy, microscopy, light stable isotopes, analytical pyrolysis, NMR spectroscopy and chemometric analyses. The data indicate that the black speleothems are composed of a hydrated gel matrix of amorphous aluminum silicate materials containing charred vegetation and thermally degraded resins from pines or triterpenoids from Erica arborea, characteristic of the overlying laurel forest. This is the first observation of a connection between fire and speleothem chemistry from volcanic caves. We conclude that wildfires and organic matter from the surface area overlying caves may play an important role in the formation of speleothems found in La Palma and demonstrate that siliceous speleothems are potential archives for past fires. | Descripción: | 11 páginas.- 7 figuras.- 1 tabla.- 73 referencias.- Supplementary data to this article can be found online a https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.134321 | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.134321 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/190829 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.134321 | ISSN: | 0048-9697 |
