  • Lower Applegate Area
    ... (26) ELDER MANGANESE LOWER APPLEGATE AREA Rhodonite ore with some rhodochrosite and hard manganese oxides in fracture planes occurs in a black, siliceous, metamorphosed sediment. The rock may be cobbed to show fairly large pieces of deep pink rhodonite. From the standpoint of metallurgical manganese ore, the prospect shows little promise. Authority: FWL (?) Department report Owner: J. R. Elder(?) Location: Sec. 6, T. 39 S., R. 5 W., south of Mungers Creek. Geology: "The rocks of the locality are old, highly metamorphosed sediments." n'l'he only opening -~he deposit is an opencut about 10 ft. long with a face about 8 ft. high, all in a black, siliceous, metamorphosed sediment, into which eydrothermal solutions have penetrated, depositing quartz, rhodonite and a small amount of rhodochrosite in irregular small seams and lenses. A thin\. coating of hard manganese oxides covers some fracture planes, and a little soft black oxide occurs in joint cracks near the surface." "The rock may be cobbed to show fairly large pieces of deep pink rhodonite, and several hundred pounds has been sold to collectors and lapidaries. The work done on the deposit has been to obtain rhodonite for this purpose". "The surface indicttes a considerable area of similar country rock, and probably trenching would show a greuter extent of the rhodonite oc­ currence. From the standpoint of producing a metallurgical manganese ore, however, the prospect shows little promise."

  • Dissolution and Solubility of Calcite-Rhodochrosite Solid Solutions
    Zhu et al. Geochem Trans (2021) 22:1 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12932-021-00075-1 Geochemical Transactions RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Dissolution and solubility of calcite-rhodochrosite solid solutions [(Ca1-xMnx)CO3] at 25 °C Yinian Zhu1* , Peijie Nong1, Nan Mo1, Zongqiang Zhu2,3*, Huan Deng1, Shen Tang2, Hongqu Yang1, Lihao Zhang2 and Xingxing Wang1 Abstract A complete series of calcite-rhodochrosite solid solutions [(Ca1-xMnx)CO3] are prepared, and their dissolution pro- cesses in various water samples are experimentally investigated. The crystal morphologies of the solid solutions vary from blocky spherical crystal aggregates to smaller spheres with an increasing incorporation of Mn in the solids. Regarding dissolution in N2-degassed water, air-saturated water and CO2-saturated water at 25 °C, the aqueous Ca and Mn concentrations reach their highest values after 1240–2400 h, 6–12 h and < 1 h, respectively, and then decrease gradually to a steady state; additionally, the ion activity products (log_IAP) at the fnal steady state ( solubil- ity products in log_K ) are estimated to be 8.46 0.06, 8.44 0.10 and 8.59 0.10 for calcite [CaCO ], ≈respec- sp − ± − ± − ± 3 tively, and 10.25 0.08, 10.26 0.10 and 10.28 0.03, for rhodochrosite [MnCO3], respectively. As XMn increases, the log_IAP− values ±decrease− from ± 8.44 ~ 8.59− for calcite± to 10.25 ~ 10.28 for rhodochrosite. The aqueous Mn − − − − concentrations increase with an increasing Mn/(Ca Mn) molar ratio (XMn) of the (Ca1-xMnx)CO3 solid solutions, while the aqueous Ca concentrations show the highest values+ at X 0.53–0.63.

LAMENS’, F. GEUKENS’ & W. VIAENE2 Instituut voor Aardwetenschappen, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Redingenstraat 16, B-3000 Leuven, Belgium ’Afdeling Fysico-Chemische Geologie, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Celestijnenlaan 200C, B-3030 Heverlee, Belgium Abstract: The LowerOrdovician in the CaledonianStavelot Massif (Belgium) containsa coticule member, probablyArenig in age, composed of redhematite-rich shales alternating with thin yellowish coticulebeds. These coticules are fine-grained highly manganiferousmetamorphic rocks mainly composed of spessartine garnet, mica and quartz. Similar rocks of about the same age occur in several localities along the Appalachian and Caledonian fold belts. The Belgian coticules are thought to haveoriginated from marly sediments which had beendeposited rapidly, probably by density currents, and in which CaCO, had been diagenetically replaced by MnCO,. During metamorphism, spessartine garnets- were formed from this MnCO, and mica. Manganese and iron are thought to have originated from volcanic-exhalative processes. The Stavelot Massif is one of the five Caledonian Massifs in could be used as a key lithology for correlation along the Belgium. It consists of MiddleCambrian to Lower Appalachian and Caledonian fold belts. Similar rocks have Ordovician strata (Fig. 1, Table 1). The southeastern partof also been described from older (Precambrian) and younger the Stavelot Massifis at a low metamorphicgrade. The strata(Roy & Purkait 1968; Vearncombe 1983; Minnigh LowerOrdovician of the Stavelot Massifis called 1979). Most of these spessartine-rich rocks, however, have “Salmian”.It has been subdivided into Salmian 1 (Sml), morequartz and less mica than the Belgian coticules.

STABLE ISOTOPES OF HYDROTHERMAL CARBONATE MINERALS IN THE BUTTE PORPHYRY-LODE DEPOSITS, MONTANA by Ryan Stevenson A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Geosciences Montana Tech 2015 ii Abstract The stable isotopic compositions of over 90 hydrothermal carbonate minerals in the Butte porphyry-lode system were analyzed. These samples came from the underground workings as well as the active Continental Pit area. Most material came from polymetallic “Main Stage” veins which post-date the porphyry Cu-Mo mineralization of Butte. Some samples from late calcite-stellerite veins were also included in the study. Rhodochrosite 13C and 18O values range from -8.3 to -2.9‰ (average of -6.7±1.0‰) and -1.8 to 12.8‰ (average of 3.6 ±3.4‰) respectively, while calcite 13C and 18O values range from -9.0 to -2.6‰ (average of -5.4 ± 1.5‰) and -4.4 to 12.3‰ (average of 6.2±2.8‰) respectively.
