Over 250 Received in revised form 23 June 2017 boron-bearing minerals have been identified, the most common being sodium, Accepted 29 June 2017 calcium, or magnesium salts. Boron is a rare element in the nature (average Available online 25 September 2017 content in the Earth’s crust is 10 ppm), but extraordinary concentrations can be Research Article found in certain places. The formation of borate deposits can be summarized as follows; (1) a skarn group associated with intrusive and consisting of silicates and Keywords: iron oxides; (2) a magnesium oxide group hosted by marine evaporitic sediments; Borate basins, (3) a sodium– and calcium–borate hydrates group associated with lacustrine Borate deposits, (playa lake) sediments and explosive volcanic activity. Borate formation, Overview of deposits, Borate is defined as any compound that contains or supplies boric oxide (B2O3). A Future forecast large number of minerals contain boric oxide, but the four that are most important from a worldwide commercial standpoint which are borax, kernite, ulexite, and colemanite. These are produced in a limited number of countries, and Turkey has largest borax, ulexite and colemanite reserves in the world. All the countries are dependent upon colemanite and ulexite reserves of Turkey. Borate exploration consists of detailed prospecting of favorable areas followed by drilling, and uses all the tools available to the exploration geologist. Most of the world’s commercial borate deposits are mined by open pit methods. Brines from Searles Lake, and presumably the Chinese sources, are recovered by either controlled evaporation or carbonation. Boric acid is one of the final products produced from most of the processes. Detail mineralogical and advanced chemical data on the individual borate minerals and associated minerals (such as clay and lithium minerals) will increase the knowledge of borate end-products and their incomes as well as creating new gateways to the high technology and research on the borate minerals. These types studies will be extremely important for borate and related mineral industry. Very few modern industries can get by without borates, and very few people can get by without their products. When you consider the role boron plays in plant life, and by extension, all life, it’s hard to imagine our world without it. Therefore, borates and their products could be one of the main topics for sustainable development in whole world. 1.

Correlations between 25Mg NMR parameters and the local structure at the magnesium site(s) are highlighted and discussed. First-principles density functional theory calculations of 25Mg NMR parameters carried out with the WIEN2k software package support our experimental 25Mg NMR 25 data. Experimental Mg CQ values range from 0.7 ± 0.1 MHz in hungchaoite to 18.0 ± 0.5 MHz in 25 boracite-type Mg3B7O13Br.

Thirty-one minerals, with nineteen distinct structure-types,contain isolated borate polyhedra. Twenty-seven minerals, with twenty-five distinct struc- ture-types, contain finite clusters of borate polyhedra. Ten minerals, with ten distinct structue-types, contain chains of borate polyhedra. Fifteen minerals, with thirteen distinct structue-types, contain sheets of borate polyhedra. Fifteen minerals, with thirteen distinct sEucture-types,contain frameworks of borate polyhedra.

  • Potash, Soda Ash, and Borates 3
    Energy and Environmental Profile of the U.S. Mining Industry Potash, Soda Ash, and Borates 3 Potash, soda ash and borates are industrial minerals. They are used primary as feedstock for other industries. They are used to make fertilizers, glass, chemicals and other materials used throughout manufacturing industries. For example, the agricultural industry relies heavily on potash and borates as fertilizers. It is the dependence of these manufacturing industries that make industrial minerals so important. Forms of Potash Potash is used primarily as an agricultural fertilizer because it is a source for soluble potassium. Potash denotes a variety of mined and manufactured salts, all containing the element potassium in water-soluble form. Potash can be potassium chloride [KCL, or muriate of potash (MOP)], potassium sulfate [K2SO4, or sulfate of potash (SOP), a . manufactured product], potassium/magnesium sulfate [K2SO4 MgSO4, or sulfate of potash magnesia (SOPM)], potassium nitrate (KNO3 or saltpeter, a manufactured product), or mixed sodium/potassium nitrate (NaNO3+KNO3, or Chilean saltpeter). The term potash was originally applied to potassium carbonate/potassium hydroxide crystals that were recovered in iron “pots” from leaching wood “ashes” with water.1 Forms of Soda Ash Soda ash is the trade name for sodium carbonate (NA2CO3), a chemical refined from the mineral trona or from sodium carbonate-bearing brines (both referred to as natural soda ash) and manufactured from one of several chemical processes (referred to as synthetic soda ash). It is an essential raw material in glass, chemicals, detergents, and other 2 important industrial products. 1 Department of Interior, U.S. Geological Survey, Mineral Industry Survey, Potash, p.1, 1997 2 Department of Interior, U.S.

  • A-Type Granite Plutons and Tin Skarns in Southeast Yukon: Mindy Prospect and Surrounding Granites of 105C/9
    A-type granite plutons and tin skarns in southeast Yukon: Mindy prospect and surrounding granites of 105C/9 Tim Liverton Watson Lake, Yukon Liverton, T., 2016. A-type granite plutons and tin skarns in southeast Yukon: Mindy prospect and surrounding granite of 105C/9. In: Yukon Exploration and Geology 2015, K.E. MacFarlane and M.G. Nordling (eds.), Yukon Geological Survey, p. 151-164. ABSTRACT In the southeast Yukon, immediately southwest of the mid-Cretaceous Cassiar suite plutons,is a northwest-trending suite of anorogenic one-mica granites called the Seagull suite. This suite is comprised of the Seagull and Hake batholiths, Ork and Thirtymile stocks and an un-named intrusion to the northwest. These B and F enriched granites are associated with various forms of tin mineralization, including skarns. The Mindy prospect in the Thirtymile Range contains a variety of metasomatic silicate and borate and fluoride minerals. Tin (Sn) mineralization is found as cassiterite and borate mineral phases. Mapping has shown that faulting active during metamorphism- metsomatism controlled the distribution of the skarn mineralization. Both mineral chemistry and structural control of mineralization have a significant effect on the economic potential of the Mindy prospect.

In most metamorphic and igneous environments, boron is incorporated into minerals of the tourmaline supergroup. In high-grade metamorphic terranes like that of the Adirondack region of northern New York State, uncommon rock compositions combined with unusual and variable geologic conditions resulted in the formation of many additional boron-bearing minerals. This paper reviews the occurrences and geological settings of twelve relatively uncommon boron-bearing minerals in the southern Grenville Province of upstate New York and provides new chemical and Raman spectral data for seven of these minerals. The boron minerals range from relatively simple metal borates (e.g., vonsenite), to chemically complex borosilicates (e.g., prismatine), to a relatively rare borosilicate-carbonate (e.g., harkerite).
