An outstanding feature is its high flexibility which applies to both measuring range and sample feeding. The LA-960 offers the possibility to use different dispersing media: typically water or alcohol but also non- polar organic solvents. BENEFITS n Extremely wide measurement range from 10 nm to 5 mm n Wet and dry measurements possible n Analysis according to the Mie Scattering Theory (scattering and diffraction) n Analysis cycles: < 1 minute (from sample to sample) n Efficient circulation system incl. ultrasonic probe n Change of measuring cells in seconds www.retsch-technology.com Particle Characterization with Dynamic Image Analysis and Laser Scattering RETSCH TECHNOLOGY provides innovative optical measurement systems for particle characterization with Dynamic Image Analysis or Laser Diffraction. The instruments cover a measuring range from 0.3 nm to 30 mm and are suitable for the characterization of powders, granules, bulk materials, suspensions, emulsions and colloidal systems.

On behalf of the organizing team it is our pleasure to welcome you to the 7th Mid-European Clay Conference held in Dresden. This conference is the first one organized by the DTTG, the German Clay and Clay Minerals Group, who joined the MECC-organizing countries in 2008. With Dresden, near Meissen, we have chosen a venue with significant historic meaning for the usage of kaolinite- rich clays. Excursions to still operating, but ancient clay pits will augment our scientific programme, which encompasses eleven sessions dealing with a multitude of currently relevant aspects of clay science. Five plenary talks and six keynotes will structure each conference day, where more than 230 participants will learn about 90 posters and 130 talks. Our sincere thanks go to all our colleagues, who spent timeless hours with reviewing abstracts and organizing and chairing the sessions, to the team of Conventus, who took over the financial and administrative tasks and, last but not least, to our sponsors, ensuring the financial success of the conference. We wish you an enjoyable conference with plenty of interesting presentations, fruitful discussions, reunion with colleagues and meeting our scientific future, the young students. See you in Dresden.

  • Geochemistry of Fluorite and Related Features of the Kugitangtou Ridge Caves, Turkmenistan
    Vladimar Maltsev and Viktor Korshunov - Geochemistry of Fluorite and Related Features of the Kugitangtou Ridge Caves, Turkmenistan. Journal of Cave and Karst Studies 60(3): 151- 155. GEOCHEMISTRY OF FLUORITE AND RELATED FEATURES OF THE KUGITANGTOU RIDGE CAVES, TURKMENISTAN VLADIMIR MALTSEV GEOSYSTEM institute, Moscow, Leninsky prospekt, 61/1, Apt.57, RUSSIA VIKTOR KORSHUNOV Geology Department, Moscow State University, Tichvinsky pereulok, 9/12-4-86, RUSSIA This paper presents a model explaining the fluorine geochemistry in the Cupp-Coutunn Cave System, in the Kugitangtou Ridge, southeastern Turkmenistan. By the corrosive activity of biologically derived sul- furic acid, HF gas is released by weathering of fluorite in residual cave deposits and in speleothems formed during a period of thermal activity. Secondary fluorite is produced, and conditions are provided for silica and aluminum mobility in the caves. The latter process helps to explain the origin of the clay mineral sauconite, Zn3(Si4O10)(OH)2·nH2O, and fraipontite, (Zn,Al)3(SiAl)2O5(OH)4, a member of the kaolinite-serpentine group.

  • Interactions of Clay Minerals and Their Effects on Copper-Gold Flotation Nestor Cruz Beng, Msc in Chemical Engineering
    Interactions of Clay Minerals and their Effects on Copper-Gold Flotation Nestor Cruz BEng, MSc in Chemical Engineering A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2015 Sustainable Minerals Institute Julius Kruttschnitt Mineral Research Centre Abstract The continuous depletion of mineral resources has resulted in the increased processing of low grade complex ores that in some cases contain clay minerals. These gangue minerals are often associated with ores containing copper and gold and can cause problems in mineral flotation. Some of the observations from industry when high clay ores are processed include the high flotation pulp viscosity, over-stable froth or absent froth, and lower grade and recovery. Clay minerals are small flat particles that occur in colloidal size ranges with charges on their surfaces that may change with pH. These characteristics allow them to interact with water, reagents and other gangue minerals present in flotation pulp. Given these properties and interactions it is expected that clay minerals can cause high slurry viscosities and mechanical entrainment contributing to the decline of flotation kinetics and/or dilution of flotation concentrates. Some solutions to high viscosity and entrainment are the dilution of flotation pulp, desliming, and the blending of easy to process ores and problematic ores. However, the dilution of flotation pulp increases water consumption and reduces plant throughput, desliming removes fine valuable minerals as well, and blending ores is also impractical since at some point it is necessary to process the high clay content ores alone. The use of dispersants or depressants to reduce viscosity and entrainment could be an effective way to improve the flotation of this type of ores, but to make the best use of this alternative it is essential to understand at a fundamental level some of the interactions of clay minerals in flotation.

Triplett The Supervisory Committee certifies that this disquisition complies with North Dakota State University’s regulations and meets the accepted standards for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: Bernhardt Saini -Eidukat Chair Kenneth Lepper Achintya Bezbaruah Lisa Montplaisir Approved: March 7, 2012 Craig Stockwell Date Department Chair ABSTRACT The fibrous zeolite mineral erionite is a concern due to its potential for causing lung disease in humans. Studies have shown that exposure to altered volcanic bedrock containing erionite may be the explanation for a high lung disease rate throughout regions of the world (Metintas et al., 1999). Erionite was reported by Forsman (1986) as occurring in tuffaceous rock units of the Arikaree Formation in the Killdeer Mountains of western North Dakota. Rock and soil samples were collected where zeolite minerals are known or suspected to be present including North and South Killdeer Mountains in Dunn County and West and East Rainy Buttes and White Butte in Slope County. Analysis and identification was carried out using XRD, SEM, and EMPA. Zeolitic material was confirmed in units for both North and South Killdeer Mountains. The chemical compositions of the fibers resulted in a majority being classified as offretite rather than erionite.
