amygdaloidal, cavity- and fracture-filling zeolites in eocene volcanic rocks from the kuh-e-aradeh of southern kahrizak, in the northernmost part of central iran have been studied in some detail by optical, chemical analysis, sem, and xrd techniques. the zeolites identified, in order of their relative time of formation from early to late, are tetranatrolite, analcime, natrolite, mesolite, stilb...

The capacity of natural zeolites to absorb anionic pollutants from water is limited. This limitation can be overcome by modifying the surface of the minerals with organic cations. In this research, natural zeolite, Analcime was used for removing the nitrate and nitrite impurities from aqueous solutions. The surface of the zeolite was modified by tetramethylammonium and tetraethylammonium ions t...

ABSTRACT Located in the southwest corner of Ratanakiri Volcanic Province, Wat Ocheng basalt is first known zeolite locality Cambodia. The a fine-grained, vesicular to amygdaloidal, subalkaline transitional alkaline intraplate tholeiite comprised 30% lath-like plagioclase (average: Ab51An45Or4), 35% interstitial augite Wo44En35Fs21), 25–30% zeolites after and volcanic glass, minor skeletal ulvös...

The solubilities of analcime and clinoptilolite were determined in dilute, weakly alkaline, aqueous solutions below 300 8C and at vapor-saturated pressures. Analcimes used in this study were from Mont St. Hilaire, Quebec (an1, Si/Al 5 2.02) and Wikieup, Arizona (an2, Si/Al 5 2.55); clinoptilolite samples were from Castle Creek, Idaho (Si/Al 5 4.50). The effects of alkali content (Na,K) on clino...

Small-scale assimilation of limestone during the intrusion of an olivine basalt feeder dyke into an Eocene argillaceous, siliceous biomicrite in the Tokatoka area has resulted in the incorporation of large amounts of calcium into the parent magma. Initial effects of assimilation have caused partial resorption of the earlyformed igneous mineralogy and the precipitation of calcic, iron-rich clino...
