We report the calcium isotope fractionation during the microbially-induced precipitation of calcium carbonate minerals in pure cultures of the marine sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio bizertensis. These data are used to explore how the calcium isotope fractionation factor during microbially-i...
