Archetypal cements from their deposition to the time they are sampled preserve a record of subsurface fluid evolution that can cover many millions of years. Their morphological development after nucleating on fissure walls is simulated by graphical models showing maturation from isolated to competitive to parallel growth. Graphical models are not available for the cementation of pores that are more complex and diverse. The reconstruction of cement growth in pores is accomplished here using multiple cathodoluminescent (CL) growth zones.
