  • Elimination of Ferric Ion Effect on Separation Between Kyanite and Quartz Using Citric Acid As Regulator

In this study, citric acid was used as a regulator to eliminate the effect of ferric ions on the separation of kyanite from quartz with sodium oleate (NaOL) as a collector. The microflotation test results indicated that the quartz was selectively activated by FeCl3 and maintained significant quartz recovery. However, the citric acid could selectively eliminate the effect of ferric ions on the quartz and minimally influenced the kyanite. Contact angle tests demonstrated that FeCl significantly increased the interaction between NaOL and quartz, resulting in the high 3 hydrophobicity of quartz, and the addition of citric acid made the quartz surface hydrophilic again but slightly influenced the kyanite. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy showed that FeCl Citation: Niu, Y.; Li, Y.; Sun, H.; Sun, 3 C.; Yin, W.; Xu, H. Elimination of facilitated NaOL adsorption onto the quartz surface, and the addition of citric acid eliminated the Ferric Ion Effect on Separation activation of FeCl3 on the quartz, resulting in the nonadsorption of NaOL onto the quartz surface.

  • The Wittelsbach-Graff and Hope Diamonds: Not Cut from the Same Rough
    THE WITTELSBACH-GRAFF AND HOPE DIAMONDS: NOT CUT FROM THE SAME ROUGH Eloïse Gaillou, Wuyi Wang, Jeffrey E. Post, John M. King, James E. Butler, Alan T. Collins, and Thomas M. Moses Two historic blue diamonds, the Hope and the Wittelsbach-Graff, appeared together for the first time at the Smithsonian Institution in 2010. Both diamonds were apparently purchased in India in the 17th century and later belonged to European royalty. In addition to the parallels in their histo- ries, their comparable color and bright, long-lasting orange-red phosphorescence have led to speculation that these two diamonds might have come from the same piece of rough. Although the diamonds are similar spectroscopically, their dislocation patterns observed with the DiamondView differ in scale and texture, and they do not show the same internal strain features. The results indicate that the two diamonds did not originate from the same crystal, though they likely experienced similar geologic histories. he earliest records of the famous Hope and Adornment (Toison d’Or de la Parure de Couleur) in Wittelsbach-Graff diamonds (figure 1) show 1749, but was stolen in 1792 during the French T them in the possession of prominent Revolution.

Shapiro Feb. 7, 2018 4:12 p.m. ET The fancy color diamond market is on the upswing, according to a report, with blue diamonds seeing the largest gains. Blue diamonds saw a 5.9% increase in value in the fourth quarter of 2017 in a year-over-year comparison, according to data published on Feb. 1 by the Fancy Color Research Foundation (FCRF). Pink and yellow diamond prices decreased slightly in the same period, at 0.8% and 1.8%, respectively. The market overall was up 0.1%. A fancy vivid blue diamond ring (est. $14-18 million) goes on view at Sotheby's on Oct. 13, 2017 in London. ILLUSTRATION: GETTY IMAGES FOR SOTHEBY'S In November 2017, Christie’s sold a 8.67-carat fancy intense blue diamond ring in Geneva, Switzerland for $13.2 million. The reason for this disparity has less to do with demand, than it does with the rarity of the stone, says FCRF Chairman Eden Rachminov. Demand for yellow and pink diamonds is actually higher, but the amount of blue diamonds being mined is decreasing. “Almost nothing is coming out of the ground,” he says. Pink diamonds have seen the highest gains in the last 13 years with an overall appreciation of 361.9%, according to FCRF’s index, which is compiled through survey data provided by manufacturers and brokers.

  • Dress with Pleat
    Lekala 2262 Dress With Pleat Dress With Pleat - Sewing Pattern #2262 Recommendations on fabric: natural/mixed fabric suitable for dresses. You will also need: dress zipper, fusible interfacing. Seam allowances: all seams 1 cm; seam allowance for hem of garment and hem of sleeve – 2.0 cm. Note on seam allowances: - If the pattern has double contour the seam allowances are included. They are 1 cm unless specified otherwise. - If the pattern has single contour, the seam allowances are NOT included and need to be added when laying out the pattern. Note on length of fabric: Attention! The amount of fabric needed for your pattern is not included. It will depend on the selected pattern size, the width, and design of the fabric you plan to use. First, print all the paper patterns and lay them out at the width of fabric you plan to use (usually from 90 to 150 cm). Measure how much fabric you will need. Don't forget to account for pieces that need to be cut multiple times and pieces that are cut on the fold. CUTTING: Note on cutting: On the pattern pieces, “beam” means straight of grain. Lay out your pieces accordingly. Some pieces will be cut on the fold. This is noted on the pattern piece. Mark all notches and other design features such as pleats etc. from the pattern onto your fabric. When sewing the garment, pay attention to notches, they must match up. Main fabric: 1. Back - cut 2 2. Front - cut 1 on fold 3. Sleeve - cut 2 4.

  • Placket Construction Options
    Placket Construction Options 1 Type1: Two Separate Bound Edges on a rectangular stitching box The key to this structure is that the bindings are initially stitched only to the seam allowances on each side, and NOT stitched across the end, of the clipped box, which means that they, and the clipped triangle at the bottom, remain loose and can be arranged before the nal nishing to go on either side of the fabric, as well as either over or under the other, after joining them at the sides. The widths and lengths of the bindings and the space between the sides of the clipped box determine all the other options available in this most exible of all the placket types I know of. Variation 1: Both bindings t inside the stitching box If you cut the bindings so the nished, folded widths of both are equal to or smaller than the space between the initial stitching lines, as shown above, you can arrange both ends at the clipped corners to all go on one side of the fabric (right or wrong side), along with the clipped triangle on the garment. You’ll get the best results if the underlapping binding is slightly smaller than the overlapping one. This can be man- aged by taking slightly deeper seam allowances when you join this piece, so they can initially be cut from the same strip. Or, you can place one end on each side with the Both ends on RS One end on RS, Both ends on WS triangle sandwiched in between.

  • The Use of Raman Spectroscopy in the Characterization of Variscite Provenance: the Gavà Case
    Chapitre III : Apport des méthodes d’analyses à l’étude de la diffusion des productions The use of Raman spectroscopy in the characterization of variscite provenance: the Gavà case Joan Carlos Melgarejo, Laia Arqués, Cristina Villanova-de-Benavent, Tariq Jahwari, Lisard Torró, Josep Bosch Argilagós, Montgarri Castillo-Oliver, Marc Campeny, Sandra Amores, Aleu Andreazini, Saleh Lehbib, Antoni Camprubí Abstract. The Gavà phosphate deposit, mined during the Neolithic, was produced by weathering processes affecting primary apatite beds. It exhibits a neat vertical zoning, related to chemical gradients during weathering. Strengite, yellowish Al-rich strengite and ferroan variscite are found at the top, pale- green variscite at the intermediate levels, and green variscite in depth. Fe values are very low in the greenish samples, as well as Cr and V. Raman spectrums of the Gavà variscite show differences with samples from other occurrences worldwide. Moreover, some spectral differences can also be observed in the Raman spectra of variscite coming from different depths in the deposit. Raman spectroscopy can be an efficient tool to discriminate not only samples from different geographical localities, but also from its original position in a given deposit. Key-words: variscite, Raman, microprobe, veins, supergene. Résumé. Le gîte de phosphates de Gavà, exploité au Néolithique, s’est formé par des processus de météorisation qui auraient affecté des strates primaires d’apatite. Ce gîte a une zonation chimique verticale, qui aurait été produite par des gradations chimiques lors de la météorisation. La partie haute du gîte contient de la strengite, de l’Al-strengite et de la Fe-variscite jaunâtres ; les niveaux intermédiaires contiennent de la variscite verdâtre et les niveaux plus profonds, de la variscite verte.

    A Living History Museum Turquoise: The Cerrillos Mineral Gem The mines of Cerrillos, New Mexico produce a particularly beautiful blue/ green variety of turquoise, so stunning in fact that they have been mined for roughly the last 3,000 years! Chemically, it is a phosphate of aluminum carrying small quantities of copper and iron and a green mineral, variscite. These give the gemstone its color as well as its value and beauty. This is the only phosphate that is considered a precious stone. Ancestral Puebloans first started mining the Cerrillos hills circa 900 BCE, and it’s been mined ever since. This “gem” of a mineral has been found across the state, and archaeological evidence shows it’s been mined and fashioned into ornaments and jewelry for centuries, with remnants found at one of the most ancient sites in the state, Chetro Ketl at Chaco Canyon. Southwest indigenous groups call turquoise chalchihuitl, as did the ancient peoples of Mexico and Central America who used the same word to describe jade or green turquoise. One of the hills still being mined in Cerrillos still bears the name, Mount Chalchihuitl. Combined with shell and coral from the California coast acquired in trade, turquoise jewelry itself became a valued commodity. Spanish settlers didn’t have much interest in turquoise as they were looking for what they considered a more important prize, namely gold and silver. In fact, outside of local indigenous groups, other cultural groups weren’t much interested in it and it didn’t really gain popularity with the American cultural at large until the 1890s.
