    environment. An evaluation of prewash methods was performed to determine the influence this may have on the dissolution of selected sediments. Initial rates were used to compare the differences as well as the use of a SEM for imaging and an EDX for chemical composition. It was determined that prewash methods do affect the overall concentration change, but do not significantly change the initial rates of dissolution. Using the EDX data we were able to determine that there was change occurring on the
