Experimental results show that the magnetic separation method can effectively reduce the biotite content in concrete from 10 % to 2 %, thus improving the mechanical properties of concrete. Through microscopic characterization, we found that the surface layer of biotite had a strong bonding effect with the early hydration product.

The capture effect of the dry magnetic separator on biotite particles in fine aggregates is directly related to the change in biotite content. The former process is an intuitive reflection of the separation effect based on the image display, and the latter process is a lateral reflection of the separation effect based on data statistics.

It is concluded that between 500° and 725°C magnetite nucleates and grows within and parallel to the biotite cleavages yielding a magnetic fabric mimetic of the biotite fabric. At higher temperatures magnetite undergoes partial haematization, accounting for the decrease in remanence, susceptibility and anisotropy degree.

Here, biotite (Bt), a natural mineral, is considered an ideal magnetic material. Bt is a layered silicate mineral with chemical composition K(Mg, Fe 2+ ) 3 (Al, Fe 3+ )Si 3 O 10 (OH, F) 2, which has good physical and chemical properties such as large specific surface area, good structural stability and negative charged [33], [34], [35], [36].

Hydrothermal alteration is a geological process that occurs when hot, mineral-rich fluids interact with rocks and minerals, changing their physical and chemical properties. This interaction can lead to the formation of new minerals and the alteration of existing minerals, which can result in the formation of mineral deposits, including those ...

Minerals in the discontinuous series begin with olivine at the highest temperature, followed by pyroxene, amphibole, and biotite. Minerals in the continuous series form calcium-rich plagioclase ...

Felsic magmatic rocks of Askot and Chiplakot regions in the inner segment of the Kumaun Lesser Himalaya are represented by the Paleoproterozoic two-mica (biotite–muscovite) granite gneisses (ca. 1850 Ma), which are referred herein as Askot (AGGn) and Chiplakot (CGGn) granite gneisses, respectively. They are invariably …

Rubidium and Potassium Extraction from Granitic Rubidium Ore: Process Optimization and Mechanism Study. Peng Xing Chengya Wang Bao-zhong Ma Ling Wang Zhang Wenjuan Yong-qiang Chen. Materials Science, Chemistry. 2018. Thus far, little is known about the use of granitic rubidium ore for the extraction of rubidium.

Biotite is a general field term for dark micas. Biotite has the general formula (K(Mg,Fe) 3 (AlSi 3 O 10)(OH) 2) . The presence of iron and magnesium in biotite makes it darker in color than muscovite. With a higher crystallization temperature, biotite is viewed as occurring earlier in the Bowen reaction series. Sheetlike layer-silicates are ...

Biotite and uraninite related to IOCG mineralization are associated with redox sensitive minerals such as magnetite, ilmenite, and graphite. • Calculation of Fe 3+ in biotite using methods of Dymek, 1983, Guidotti and Dyar, 1991.

Ti-in biotite, Al-in hornblende and mineral assemblage biotite-K-feldspar-magnetite were used to determine temperature, pressure and oxygen fugacity during the crystallization of parent magmas.

Biotite (Biotite). Biotite belongs to the so-called "mica minerals" which can be easily split into thin, but enormously large, flexible sheets. The largest single crystal sheet of biotite measured 23 m squared, found in Norway. This silicate mineral can be found in magmatic and metamorphic rocks and it's commonly used as an isolating material, particularly in …

Typically, however, biotite's dark color prohibits such a mistake. Gneiss is a medium- to coarse-grained rock that can be found in a variety of locations, but its characteristic banding can perhaps best be seen in massive exposed samples, such as those at Stone Mountain, Georgia and Hickory Nut Gorge in North Carolina. ...

The presence of magnetic particles in a ceramic body or glaze, both in mineral form or as free iron, causes a wide range of issues during the firing process. In the past, such flaws were covered by ornate and colorful glazes and decoration. However, modern ceramics producers do not have the luxury of implementing such methods.

Additionally, free iron is often introduced into the process from the wear or failure of process plant. Understanding the minerals' magnetic properties and their reaction within a magnetic field defined the magnetic separator design process. The behaviour minerals exhibit in a magnetic field is classed under one of five headings: …
