tween steady and oscillatory states, and marked sensitivity to stirring rate. Thiocyanate shows none of these features. A mechanistic explanation of the chlorite-bromide oscillations seems within reach given the reactions's similarity to the chlorite-iodide reaction and the success of numerical simulations' ' , 1 2 of batch behavior in the chlorite-bromide system. In contrast, very little is kn...

-Chloritic veins in serpentinite and their weathering products were analyzed by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF). Chlorite formed during the Hercynianage orogenesis had apparently been partly transformed to high-charge vermiculite during subsequent metamorphism of the rocks. The idealized structural formulae for these minerals are (mlL9Fea+0.zFe2+o.4Mg9.2...

specific elements (cr, al, ca, and si) and loss on ignition (loi) were used for semi-quantitative determination of the normative mineralogical composition of naturally occurring chromium ores in ophiolite complexes. by far the occurring ore minerals are complex both from the mineralogical and chemical viewpoints. the secondary minerals serpentine and cr-containing chlorite (kaemmererite) form n...

hydrothermal alteration processes are extensively took place on volcanic and pyroclstics of takestan area. existence of abundant, deep fracturing and subvolcanic intrusions are enhanced extend hydrothermal alteration zones. the following alteration zones are determined: propylitic, argillic, advanced argillic and sillicic. there are outcropped and widespread in different size and limit. formati...

Home Plate is a plateau in the Columbia Hills of Gusev Crater [1]. It is a layered sequence of clastic rocks with alkali basaltic composition. Based on stratigraphy, structure, sedimentology, mineralogy, and bulk chemistry it is interpreted as pyroclastic deposit and thought to be extensively hydrothermally altered [1-5]. The hydrothermal alteration is presumed to be of high and low temperature...

The source of iron material and the mineralization process skarn deposits within eastern North China Craton are ambiguous. In this study, we present new mineral chemical data Jinling deposit, located in western Shandong Province, east China. Based on petrography study data, suggest that deposit is hydrothermal metallogenic enriched by leaching Fe-rich fluids derived from primitive magmatic melt...

Abstraet--A program of simultaneous linear equations has been developed to calculate component proportions and/or component property values for mineral mixtures in soil clays and sediments. The analysis is based on quantitatively measured chemical and physical properties of samples and involves (1) qualitative idemification of the mineral components in the mixture by any appropriate means; (2) ...
