Different terms are used to define dolomite crystal sizes such as dolomicrostone (<4 µm), dolomicrosparstone (4–10 µm) and dolosparstone (>10 µm) (Wright, 1992). Similarly, Lucia (1995) classification of dolomite crystal size includes fine to medium crystalline dolomite (<20 µm to 100µm) and coarse crystalline (>100 µm). Other textural terms based on crystal size includes cryptomere (very fine crystalline), dolomicrite / micrite dolomite / microlite (crystal size <1 µm), dolosparite, dololutite (clay or mud size, <1/16 mm), dolosiltite (silt size, 1/16-1/256 mm) , dolarenite (sand size, 1/16-2 mm), dolorudite (coarser than sand, >2 mm) and macrocrystalline dolomites (Calver and Baillie, 1990; Bojiang et al., 2012; Barlow et al., 2016; Yang et al., 2017).
