Here, the systematic variation of rates and the mechanism of cadmium uptake on the (104) surface of dolomite (CaMg(CO₃)₂) were investigated using in situ and ex situ atomic force microscopy (AFM), ex situ specular X-ray reflectivity (XR), and ex situ X-ray fluorescence (XRF). Selected experiments were performed on the calcite (CaCO₃) (104) surface for comparison. Aqueous solutions of CdCl₂, CaCl₂, and NaHCO₃, undersaturated with respect to calcite and supersaturated with respect to otavite (CdCO₃) and the (Cd_xCa_1-x)CO₃ solid solution, were reacted with dolomite surfaces for minutes to days. Calcite substrates were reacted with solutions containing 1-50 μM CdCl₂, and with no added Ca or CO₃. Thin carbonate films following the Stranski-Krastanov growth mode were observed on both substrates. Specular XR and XRF revealed the formation of nm-thick Cd-rich carbonate films that were structurally ordered with respect to the dolomite (104) plane. Epitaxial films adopted the calcite crystal structure with a d₁₀₄- spacing (3.00 Å) larger than those of pure dolomite (2.88 Å) and otavite (2.95 Å) indicating either a solid solution with x approximate to 0.5, or a strained Cd-rich carbonate with a composition near that of otavite. The growth rate r of this phase increases with the initial supersaturation of the solution with respect to the solid solution, beta max, and follows the empirical relationship, as determined from XRF measurements, given by: r = 10^{-4.88 ± 0.42} (β^{2.29 ± 0.24}_max - 1), (in units of atoms of Cd/Å²/h).The morphology of the overgrowth also varied with β_max, as exemplified by AFM observations. Growth at step edges occurred over the entire β_max range considered, and additional growth features including 3 Å high monolayer islands and ~ 25 Å high tall islands were observed when log β_max > 1. On calcite, in situ XR indicated that this phase is similar to the Cd-rich overgrowth formed on dolomite and images obtained from X-ray reflection interface microscopy (XRIM) reveal the existence of laterally variable Cd-rich domains.
