  • Metamorphism of Sedimentary Manganese Deposits
    Acta Mineralogica-Petrographica, Szeged, XX/2, 325—336, 1972. METAMORPHISM OF SEDIMENTARY MANGANESE DEPOSITS SUPRIYA ROY ABSTRACT: Metamorphosed sedimentary deposits of manganese occur extensively in India, Brazil, U. S. A., Australia, New Zealand, U. S. S. R., West and South West Africa, Madagascar and Japan. Different mineral-assemblages have been recorded from these deposits which may be classi- fied into oxide, carbonate, silicate and silicate-carbonate formations. The oxide formations are represented by lower oxides (braunite, bixbyite, hollandite, hausmannite, jacobsite, vredenburgite •etc.), the carbonate formations by rhodochrosite, kutnahorite, manganoan calcite etc., the silicate formations by spessartite, rhodonite, manganiferous amphiboles and pyroxenes, manganophyllite, piedmontite etc. and the silicate-carbonate formations by rhodochrosite, rhodonite, tephroite, spessartite etc. Pétrographie and phase-equilibia data indicate that the original bulk composition in the sediments, the reactions during metamorphism (contact and regional and the variations and effect of 02, C02, etc. with rise of temperature, control the mineralogy of the metamorphosed manga- nese formations. The general trend of formation and transformation of mineral phases in oxide, carbonate, silicate and silicate-carbonate formations during regional and contact metamorphism has, thus, been established. Sedimentary manganese formations, later modified by regional or contact metamorphism, have been reported from different parts of the world. The most important among such deposits occur in India, Brazil, U.S.A., U.S.S.R., Ghana, South and South West Africa, Madagascar, Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, Japan etc. An attempt will be made to summarize the pertinent data on these metamorphosed sedimentary formations so as to establish the role of original bulk composition of the sediments, transformation and reaction of phases at ele- vated temperature and varying oxygen and carbon dioxide fugacities in determin- ing the mineral assemblages in these deposits.

Few studies are available concerning the distribution and mineralization of Ag, restricting further resource exploration. In this study, detailed mineralogy, chronology, and geochemistry are examined with the aim of revealing Ag occurrence and its associated primary base-metal and supergene mineralization. Results show that manganite and romanèchite are the major Ag-bearing minerals. Cassiterite from the Mn–Ag ores yielded a U–Pb age of 436 17 Ma, consistent with ± the Caledonian age of the Nanwenhe granitic pluton.

  • 3.3 Wombeyan Caves
    CHAPTER 3. CASE STUDIES 132 3.3 Wombeyan Caves Introduction Wombeyan Caves are located about 130 km to the south-west of Sydney (Figures 1.3 and 3.76). They are accessible by road from Mittagong or Goulburn and Taralga in the Southern Highlands (CMA Map 1976). Wombeyan Caves have been known to settlers since 1828 and developed for tourism since at least 1879 (Dyson et al. 1982). Wombeyan Caves Reserve is managed by the Jenolan Caves Reserve Trust (the same body which manages Jenolan Caves) and is a popular area for camping, walking and tourism. The surrounding area is agricultural but much of it is steep and left in a natural state. For most of the karst area, the vegetation is eucalypt woodland and grassland. Vegetation along creeks is dominated by Casuarina sp. Within the Caves Reserve are a number of marble quarries (ML2, ML3, ML4). The creamy white marble was quarried by Melocco Bros. for building stone. A quarry run by Steetly Industries crushes marble for industrial products. Geological Setting Regional Geology Wombeyan Caves is about 19 km west of the western edge of the Sydney Basin. About 5 km to the west of Wombeyan Caves is a narrow belt of folded Ordovician sediments of the Triangle Group, trending N-S (Figure 3.75). These sediments are unconformably overlain further to the west by sandstones of the Upper Devonian Lambie Group which have developed in a syncline, forming a wide N-S trending belt (Cookbundoon Synclinorium). Silurian sediments, including a small amount of limestone, crop out about 20 km to the SE of Wombeyan Caves, SSW of Bullio.

It occurs as dark gray, anhedral to subhe- dral grains up 0.5 mm across, closely associated with alabandite, Mn-rich calcite, Mn-rich sphalerite, proustite, pyrite, pyrrhotite, tennantite, argentotennantite, stannite, and other unnamed minerals of the system Pb-Ag-Sb-Mn-As-S. Manganoquadratite is opaque with a metallic luster and possesses 2 a reddish-brown streak. It is brittle, the Vickers microhardness (VHN10) is 81 kg/mm (range 75–96) (corresponding Mohs hardness of 2–2½). The calculated density is 4.680 g/cm3 (on the basis of the empirical formula). In plane-polarized reflected light, manganoquadratite is moderately bireflectant and very weakly pleochroic from dark gray to a blue gray. Internal reflections are absent. Between crossed polars, the mineral is anisotropic, without characteristic rotation tints. Reflectance percentages (Rmin and Rmax) for the four standard COM wavelengths are 29.5, 31.8 (471.1 nm), 28.1, 30.5 (548.3 nm), 27.3, 29.3 (586.6 nm), and 26.0, 28.2 (652.3 nm), respectively.

THE SCIENTIFIC VALUATION OF MINERALS Gaonen LnrcnwonrH ENGLTsH,Rochester, New Vork. The scienceof mineralogy would be distinctly benefited by the adoption of scientific methods in the valuation of minerals. It would aid in preventing the pricing of minerals higher than is justified by the advance in general commodity prices since 1914. Lower prices would become popular and these r /ould lead to a wider distribution of minerals and to the acquisition of more specimensby collectors and museums. While it is not likely that any scheme for the scientific valuation of minerals heretofore found would meet with general acceptance, the members of this Society could do much towards standardi2ing the methods of valuation of new finds which they make, and especially finds of new species. The desire to be reimbursed for large expenditures in collecting, frequently leads to the placing of abnormally high prices on the specimenssecured, while the finding of a new mineral engendersan enthusiasm which seemsto justify these prices, though it actually doesnot. If there is a considerable supply of specimens,high prices are not warranted, even though the cost to the finder is more than the total he can fairly ask for them.
