Dolomite clumped isotope compositions are indispensable for determining the temperatures and fluid sources of dolomitizing environments, but can be misleading if they have modified since formation. Carbonate Δ_(47) values are susceptible to resetting by recrystallization during diagenesis, and, even in the absence of dissolution and reprecipitation reactions, alteration by solid-state reordering during prolonged residences at elevated temperatures. In order to understand the potential of dolomite Δ_(47) values to preserve the conditions of dolomitizationin ancient sections, the kinetic parameters of solid-state reordering in this phase must be determined. We heated mm-sized crystals of near-stoichiometric dolomite in a René-type cold seal apparatus at temperatures between 409 and 717 °C for 0.1–450 h. In order to prevent the decarbonation of dolomite to calcite, periclase, and CO_2 at these conditions, the system was pressurized with CO_2 to 0.45–0.8 kbar. Over the course of 31 temperature-time points and 128 individual Δ_(47) measurements of powdered dolomite crystals from these points, we observed the evolution of dolomite Δ_(47) values from the initial (unheated) composition of the crystals (0.452 ± 0.004‰, corresponding to a formation temperature of ∼145 °C) towards high-temperature equilibrium distributions. Complete re-equilibration occurred in the 563–717 °C experiments. As with previous heating experiments using calcite and apatite, dolomite Δ_(47) exhibited complex reordering behavior inadequately described by first-order Arrhenian-style models. Instead, we fit the data using two published models for clumped isotope reordering: the transient defect/equilibrium defect model of Henkes et al. (2014), and the exchange-diffusion model of Stolper and Eiler (2015). For both models, we found optimal reordering parameters by using global least-squares minimization algorithms and estimated uncertainties on these fits with a Monte Carlo scheme that resampled individual Δ_(47) measurements and re-fit the dataset of these new mean values. Because the exact Δ_(47)–T relationship between 250 and 800 °C is uncertain, we repeated these fitting exercises using three published high-temperature Δ_(47)–T calibrations. Regardless of calibration choice, dolomite Δ_(47) rate constants determined using both models are resolvably slower than those of calcite and apatite, and predict that high-grade dolomite crystals should preserve apparent equilibrium blocking temperatures of between ∼210 and 300 °C during cooling on geologic timescales. Best agreement between model predictions and natural dolomite marbles was found when using the exchange-diffusion model and the ab initio Δ_(63)–T calibration of Schauble et al. (2006), projected into the Δ_(47) reference frame by Bonifacie et al. (2017). Therefore, we recommend modeling dolomite Δ_(47) reordering using the exchange-diffusion model and this parameter set. In simple heating scenarios, the two models disagree. The transient defect/equilibrium defect model suggests that dolomite fabrics resist detectable reordering at ambient temperatures as high as 180 °C for tens of millions of years, while the exchange-diffusion model predicts incipient partial reordering perhaps as low as 150 °C. In either case, barring later recrystallization, dolomite Δ_(47) values should be faithful recorders of the conditions of dolomitization in sedimentary sections buried no hotter than ∼150 °C for tens of millions of years
