title: [Localization and individualization of abnormal carbonates in the valve of Mytilus galloprovincialis].
abstract: The cristallographic analysis of the valve of Mytilus galloprovincialis using the scansion microscopy method shows probable inclusions of Cd and Zn in the carbonate calcite layer and probable inclusions of Pb in carbonate aragonite layer. This confirms the supposition of a substitution of Ca ions from heavy metals investigated and the formation of the respective carbonates that precipitate together with calcium carbonate in the process of growth of the valve of the mollusc examined.
