chlorite flakes, as a product of alteration of biotite, the dominant ferromagnesian mineral in the paleozoic granitic rocks of the canadian appalachians, have been analyzed by electron microprobe for major elements and by 57fe m?ssbauer spectroscopy for the coordination and oxidation state of fe. comparison of m?ssbauer fe3+/fe ratios obtained from chlorite and its host biotite indicates that c...

This study contributes to our understanding of the evolution Hal?lar Cu-Pb (±Zn) mineralization (NW Turkey) based on mineralogical and geochemical results sulfur isotope data. The area represents local with some Zn brecciated-stockwork vein type along NE–SW fault gouge zone at lower boundary Sakarkaya Düztarla granitoid rocks. Two main zones, consisting sericite–quartz–chlorite ± kaolinite pyri...

the study area is located at the sanandaj-sirjan zone in the west and north-west of azna and north-east of doroud, iran. the quartz-schists are divided into two main groups: amphibole-quartz schist and garnet-quartz schist. field and microstructural studies show several deformational phases. the d1 episode which is represented by s1, matches with m1 metamprphism and d2 deformation matches with ...

Chloroperoxidase catalyzes the dismutation of chlorite-forming chloride, chlorine dioxide, chlorate, and oxygen as products. The yields of chlorine dioxide are variable because chloroperoxidase also catalyzes the decomposition of this compound and, in addition, moderate concentrations of chlorine dioxide inactivate the enzyme. Chloride, chlorate, and oxygen are the products of the decomposition...

Greenschist facies metabasite (chlorite schist) and metasediments (banded iron formation (BIF)) in the Wutai Complex, North China Craton recorded extensive fluid activities during subduction-related metamorphism. The pervasive dolomitization chlorite schist significant dolomite enrichment at BIF–chlorite interface support existence of highly channelized updip transportation CO2-rich hydrotherma...

A compilation of Fe-bearing chlorite analyses is used: (1) to investigate the Alfree di-trioctahedral (AFDT) substitution 2Fe +□ = 3(Mg,Fe) in chlorite; and (2) to estimate the composition of a ferri-sudoite end-member (Si3Al)[(Fe ,Mg)2Fe 3+ 2 □Al]O10(OH)8 within the chlorite solid-solution domain. According to our observations, up to two Fe cations might be allocated in the M2-M3 chlorite site...

Loess may be integrated into slope deposits at different soil depths and influence related physical, chemical mineralogical properties. Therefore, tracking the border between deposited loess underlying materials estimating depth of penetration is a challenge. Five soils from Lower Silesia province in south-western Poland having types geologic substrate being covered by various thicknesses were ...

Chlorite dismutases are prokaryotic heme b oxidoreductases that convert chlorite to chloride and dioxygen. It has been postulated that during turnover hypochlorite is formed transiently, which might be responsible for the observed irreversible inactivation of these iron proteins. The only charged distal residue in the heme cavity is a conserved and mobile arginine, but its role in catalysis and...

Acidified sodium chlorite cleaves isodityrosine and solubilizes covalently bound hydroxyproline-rich material from cell walls. This has been taken as evidence that isodityrosine acts as a cross-link holding the hydroxyproline-rich glycoprotein extensin in the cell wall. However, acidified chlorite was found to cleave peptide bonds in salt-soluble extensin and in bovine serum albumin (BSA). This...

“Laoshan Jade” is located in the Yangkou area of Sulu UHP metamorphic belt. This first time a systematic research study performed on its conventional gemological characteristics, mineral compositions, geochemical and petrogenesis using polarized light microscope, an electron probe microanalyzer (EMPA), X-ray fluorescence spectrometer (XRF), Raman spectrometer. The characteristics are consistent...
