    MINERALS SORTED BY NAME Here is an alphabetical list of minerals discussed on this site. More information on and photographs of these minerals in Kentucky is available in the book “Rocks and Minerals of Kentucky” (Anderson, 1994). APATITE Crystal system: hexagonal. Fracture: conchoidal. Color: red, brown, white. Hardness: 5.0. Luster: opaque or semitransparent. Specific gravity: 3.1. Apatite, also called cellophane, occurs in peridotites in eastern and western Kentucky. A microcrystalline variety of collophane found in northern Woodford County is dark reddish brown, porous, and occurs in phosphatic beds, lenses, and nodules in the Tanglewood Member of the Lexington Limestone. Some fossils in the Tanglewood Member are coated with phosphate. Beds are generally very thin, but occasionally several feet thick. The Woodford County phosphate beds were mined during the early 1900s near Wallace, Ky. BARITE Crystal system: orthorhombic. Cleavage: often in groups of platy or tabular crystals. Color: usually white, but may be light shades of blue, brown, yellow, or red. Hardness: 3.0 to 3.5. Streak: white. Luster: vitreous to pearly. Specific gravity: 4.5. Tenacity: brittle. Uses: in heavy muds in oil-well drilling, to increase brilliance in the glass-making industry, as filler for paper, cosmetics, textiles, linoleum, rubber goods, paints. Barite generally occurs in a white massive variety (often appearing earthy when weathered), although some clear to bluish, bladed barite crystals have been observed in several vein deposits in central Kentucky, and commonly occurs as a solid solution series with celestite where barium and strontium can substitute for each other. Various nodular zones have been observed in Silurian–Devonian rocks in east-central Kentucky.

  • CREEDITE from NEVADA Wrrrrrlr F. Fosnac,L Uni.Ted. States Ivati.Onal
    CREEDITE FROM NEVADA WrrrrRlr F. Fosnac,l Uni.ted.States IVati.onal Muspum. The mineial creedite was first found by Esper S. Larsen in the fluorite mines of Wagon Wheel Gap, CreedeQuadrangle, Colorado, and describedby Larsen2and Wells as a new mineral speciesof the composition CaSOn.2CaF z. 2AI(F,OH)a. 2HzO. Later, better ma- terial was obtained and the mineral further investigated by the present writerr confirming the composition as found by Wells and determining the crystal symmetry and elements.The mineral was found to be monoclinic. Several crystal habits were found, all pris- matic but differing somewhat in the relative sizes of the terminaL faces. The mineral is associated with fluorite or embedded in a white halloysite clay. During geological field work for the U. S. Geological Survey in the Tonopah Quadrangle,Nevada, Mr. StanleyH. Cathcart visited the small gold camp of Granite (now abandoned), northwest of Tonopah in the northwestern corner of the Tonopah quadrangle and collected some specimensof the high grade ore found in the small veins of the district. These specimens showed scattered bunchesof a colorlessprismatic mineral which were determined by Dr. Clarence S. Ross, from their optical properties, to be creedite. The specimens were then turned over to the present writer for further study and are now in the collections of the U. S. National Museum (No.96489). The two specimens suggest that the gold bearing deposits of Granite are fluorite-quartz veins with free gold. The specimensare from the oxidized zone and are discolored by a clayey manganese wad. Visible flakes of gold are embedded both in the wad and in the fluorite.

  • Geochemical Modeling of Iron and Aluminum Precipitation During Mixing and Neutralization of Acid Mine Drainage
    minerals Article Geochemical Modeling of Iron and Aluminum Precipitation during Mixing and Neutralization of Acid Mine Drainage Darrell Kirk Nordstrom U.S. Geological Survey, Boulder, CO 80303, USA; [email protected] Received: 21 May 2020; Accepted: 14 June 2020; Published: 17 June 2020 Abstract: Geochemical modeling of precipitation reactions in the complex matrix of acid mine drainage is fundamental to understanding natural attenuation, lime treatment, and treatment procedures that separate constituents for potential reuse or recycling. The three main dissolved constituents in acid mine drainage are iron, aluminum, and sulfate. During the neutralization of acid mine drainage (AMD) by mixing with clean tributaries or by titration with a base such as sodium hydroxide or slaked lime, Ca(OH)2, iron precipitates at pH values of 2–3 if oxidized and aluminum precipitates at pH values of 4–5 and both processes buffer the pH during precipitation. Mixing processes were simulated using the ion-association model in the PHREEQC code. The results are sensitive to the solubility product constant (Ksp) used for the precipitating phases. A field example with data on discharge and water composition of AMD before and after mixing along with massive precipitation of an aluminum phase is simulated and shows that there is an optimal Ksp to give the best fit to the measured data. Best fit is defined when the predicted water composition after mixing and precipitation matches most closely the measured water chemistry. Slight adjustment to the proportion of stream discharges does not give a better fit. Keywords: geochemical modeling; acid mine drainage; iron and aluminum precipitation; schwertmannite; basaluminite 1.

  • Brushite and Taranakite from Pig Hole Cave, Giles County, Virginia
    BRUSHITE AND TARANAKITE FROM PIG HOLE CAVE, GILES COUNTY, VIRGINIA Jonw W. MunnAv, Department oJ Chemistry, and Rrcnano V. Drrrnrcu, Departmenl.of Geo- logical S ciences,V ir ginia P olytechnicI nstitute, Blacksburg, Virginia. Ansrnacr Brushite occurs as nodular massesof platy crystals in the lower part of a bat guano and hair deposit in Pig Hole Cave, Giles County, Virginia. Taranakite occurs as flour-like masses near contacts between the guano and hair deposit and clay and along fractures within brecciated clay within the same cave. Chemical, physical, optical, r-ray, and thermal data for each of these minerals are presented. Some of the thermal data for brushite ano many of the data for taranakite are reported here for the first time. It is suggested that the taranakite formed as the result of reactions between the bat guano and bat hair and clay. Iwrnorucuow The presenceof the minerals later identified as brushite and taranakite in a bat guano and hair deposit in Pig Hole Cave, Giles County, Virginia, was discoveredin January, 1954. So far as has been ascertainedby a search of the literature, this is the first reported natural occurrence of either brushite or taranakite in the United States of America. After posi- tive identification of the minerals, further investigations of them were undertaken mainly becauseof their relative abundance within the cave. Locar,try AND OccURRENCES Pig Hole Cave is located beneath the property of A. B. Porterfield on Johns Creek Mountain in southeastern Giles County, southwestern Virginia. The cave was so named becauseof the former presencewithin it of the odoriferous remains of a pig lodged in a crawlway beneath the natural opening to the cave.

  • Mineralogical Reconnaissance of Caves from Mallorca Island
    ENDINS, núm. 27. 2005. Mallorca MINERALOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE OF CAVES FROM MALLORCA ISLAND by Bogdan P. ONAC 1, Joan J. FORNÓS 2, Àngel GINÉS 3 and Joaquín GINÉS 2 Resum S’han fet prospeccions des d’un punt de vista mineralògic a divuit cavitats de l’illa de Mallorca. Han estat identificats, mitjançant anàlisis de difracció de raigs-X, infraroigs, tèrmics i microscopia electrònica (SEM), 16 minerals que s’engloben dins de quatre grups químics diferents. La calcita ha estat l’únic mineral present a totes les cavitats prospeccionades. En espeleotemes de quatre coves diferents s’ha iden- tificat aragonita, guix i hidroxilapatita. Endemés, també han estat identificats alguns altres minerals dels grups dels carbonats, fosfats i silicats, presents en forma de crostes, cristalls diminuts o masses terroses. Els mecanismes responsables de la deposició mineral en les coves de Mallorca són: (i) precipitació a partir de l’aigua de percolació, (ii) precipitació en la zona de mescla (aigua dolça – aigua marina), (iii) reacció entre la roca encaixant i diversos espeleotemes, i les solucions enriquides en fosfats procedents del guano de les rates pinyades, i (iv) transició de fases mi- nerals. Des del punt de vista de la mineralogia, la Cova de sa Guitarreta i la Cova de ses Rates Pinyades s’han confirmat com a dues de les coves més destacables; cada una d’elles presenta vuit autèntics minerals de cova. L’associació de fosfats que contenen és diversa i interessant. Abstract Eighteen caves on the Mallorca Island were investigated with respect to their mineralogy. Sixteen minerals, divided into four chemical groups, were identified and described using X-ray diffraction, infrared, thermal, and scanning electron microsco- pe analyses.

  • Prehistoric Exploitation of Limnosilicites in Northern Hungary: Problems and Perspectives Zsolt Mester and Norbert Faragó
    Archaeologia Polona, vol. 54: 2016, 1 – 5 PL ISSN 0066 - 5924 Editorial The first scientific investigations of the sources of flint in Poland were undertaken by archaeologist Stefan Krukowski and geologist Jan Samsonowicz in the early 20th century. Krukowski used archaeological materials to identify the macroscopic char- acteristics of ‘chocolate’ flints, described their differences, and showed the potential location of the deposits (Krukowski 1920: 189–195; Budziszewski 2008: 33). In the search for deposits of flint, their outcrops, and prehistoric mines, Krukowski was accompanied by young geologist Jan Samsonowicz. The result of their cooperation was the discovery in 1921 of in situ deposits and surface accumulations of limestones containing fragments of flint and, in 1922, the identification of a prehistoric mine at Krzemionki Opatowskie (Krukowski 1923; Samsonowicz 1923; Bąbel 2014). This long tradition of studying siliceous rocks has continued at the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology, Polish Academy of Science. In 1965 Zygmunt Krzak published the first characterization of gray white-spotted (świeciechów) flint (Krzak 1965) and five years later he described Turonian flint from Ożarów (Krzak 1970). In 1971 Romuald Schild devised a classification of ‘chocolate’ flint from the north-east margin of the Holy Cross (Świątokrzyskie) Mountains (Schild 1971, 1976) and Bogdan Balcer investigated a flint mine in Świeciechów, Kraśnik district, and the use of gray white-spotted (świeciechów) flint during the Neolithic (Balcer 1975, 1976). In 1980 Jacek Lech discussed the geology of Jurassic-Cracow flint and showed its relevance to archaeology (Lech 1980). Since that time Polish archeologists have carried out many investigations on different types of flint (e.g., Budziszewski and Michniak 1983/1989; Pawlikowski 1989; Budziszewski and Michinak eds 1995; Schild and Sulgostowska eds 1997; Matraszek and Sałaciński eds 2002; Gutowski 2004; Borkowski et al., 2008; Migaszewski et al., 2006, Krajcarz et al., 2014).
