Brazil plays an important role in global food production, but faces challenges due to its dependence on imported fertilizers. To reduce this vulnerability of the agricultural sector, use natural sources such as agrominerals, also known rock dust, is gaining ground. The objective study was characterize and evaluate a new source potassium, extracted from deposit located Brazilian Midwest, through...

sangan magnetite skarn mine is located 300 km southeast of mashhad, along the eastern part of khaf-drouneh volcanic-plutonic belt. granitoids from three areas within the sangan mine a, c-north and dardvay were studied. within the study area, three intrusive rocks including biotite-hornblende monzonite porphyry, biotite syenite and syenogranite were recognized. based on field cross cutting, abse...

Five main apatite deposits from the Moroccan Central High-Atlas —including Anemzi, Tirrhist-Inouzane, Tassent, Ait-Daoud-Toumliline and Tasraft— have been investigated through integrated field, petrographic, mineralogical, geochemical studies. The ore occurs as veins, few mm to several cm thick, spatially associated with syenite-quartz monzonite (dominant) monzodiorite-gabbrodiorite bodies empl...

Intrusion of the Kalaybar nepheline syenite into the Cretaceous pelitic and calcareous sediments has produced a thermal aureole up to 1km thick. Six mineralogical zones are developed in the pelitic rocks with minerals such as cordierite, K feldspar, sillimanite and corundum. Chemically suitable rocks are partially melted in response to the heat from the pluton. Five mineralogical zones are deve...

Structures associated with Ediacaran-Ordovician alkaline magmatism and the timing of rare earth element (REE) mineralization in Wet Mountains, CO, were analyzed using field, geophysical, U-Th-Pb isotope methods to interpret their tectonic setting context previously proposed rift models. The Mountains are known for thorium REE failed rift-related, intrusions veins. Structural field data indicate...

neyshabour turquoise mine is located in northwest of neyshabour, southern quchan volcanic belt. eocene andesite and dacite forming as lava and pyroclastic rocks cover most of the area. subvolcanic diorite to syenite porphyry (granitoids of magnetite series) intruded the volcanic rocks. both volcanic and subvolcanic rocks are highly altered. four types of alteration are recognized including: sil...
