	abstract = {<div>Beachrocks represents a coastal deposition in the intertidal area, and studying their\&nbsp;properties may lead to create a model which identifies the conditions of their\&nbsp;formation (paleo-environment). This paper focuses most intently on the cement\&nbsp;material which is able to recover the paleo-environment conditions during diagenesis\&nbsp;of such coastal sediment. We used optical microscopy, secondary electron microscopy</div>
<div>and Raman Spectroscopy to characterize the cement texture, mineralogy and\&nbsp;chemistry in the beachrocks. The existence of pure calcite primarily controlled by the\&nbsp;meteorite water, while Mg-calcite appears between the lower meteoric and the upper\&nbsp;marine phreatic zone. Finally, the presence of aragonite associated with the marine\&nbsp;phreatic to lower marine vadose environment.</div>},
