Olivine Group Minerals. Olivine is the group name for the minerals with the generic formula X 2 SiO 4. Olivine structure can accomodate various divalent cations: minerals of the olivine group include a common (ternary) solid-solution series, forsterite (Mg 2 SiO 4) – fayalite (Fe 2 SiO 4) – tephroite (Mn 2 SiO 4). Much more rare are ...

Highlights of re- sults for specific minerals are summarized below. Olivine The olivine partition coefficients for the REEs define steeper pattern slopes than have been observed in previous mineral/matrix studies. However, the magnitudes of the partition coefficients are larger than theoretical models based on experimental data predicted.

Direct carbonation of olivine particles (Step 2) is to be performed after separation of chromite and nickel. This steps consists of two reactions, namely olivine dissolution then formation and precipitation of carbonation …
Olivine is a silicate mineral composed of magnesium iron silicate and is a primary component of the Earth's mantle. Known for its olive-green color, olivine is not just significant in geological processes but is also valued as a gemstone, most commonly referred to as peridot when of gem quality.. Olivine is a magnesium iron silicate mineral with the chemical formula (Mg, Fe)₂SiO₄.
Mineral carbonation (MC) is one of the most important methods to sequester CO 2 due to the advantages of permanently storage and abundant mineral resources. This work was designed to investigate the MC chemistry and kinetics in order to further develop carbonation technology. The comprehensive effects of all factors on MC of olivine were ...
Separation of Fe–Ti oxides during magmatic differentiation plays an important role in controlling Fe isotopic evolution of residual magmas. Titanomagnetite (Tmag) is a common Fe–Ti oxide phenocryst phase in evolved basaltic lavas, but the effect of its separation on Fe isotopic evolution of residual melts remains poorly understood. Here we explore this issue with …

The adsorption configuration differed from previous reports, showing a co-adsorption of multiple forms on the ... minerals for effective separation [7,8]. Fatty acid collectors have been extensively used in titanium-bearing mineral flotation
Olivine is a crucial rock-forming mineral in mafic and ultramafic igneous rocks. Olivine is also a common component of the Earth's mantle, and is considered to be the most abundant mineral on Earth, though not very common on the …
For example, considering ultramafic deposits containing serpentine and olivine in the Eastern United States and in Puerto Rico, it was found that they have RCO2 values between 1.97 and 2.51, depending on purity and type (the RCO2 is the ratio of the mass of mineral needed to the mass of CO2 fixed when assuming complete conversion of the mineral ...
Carbonation of the widely occurring mineral olivine (e.g., forsterite, Mg{sub 2}SiO{sub 4}) is a leading process candidate, which converts CO{sub 2} into the mineral …

CO 2 mineralization is a significant method for effective CO 2 emission control because of formation of stable carbonate products and the availability of abundant mineral resources. The economic concern of the direct aqueous CO 2 mineralization prevents the application to global warming mitigation. This work discovers that the CO 2 mineralization of …
The mechanism of the mechanically assisted mineral carbonation of commercial olivine under the flow of a carbon dioxide (CO2)/nitrogen (N2) mixture has been elucidated by ex situ powder X-ray diffraction and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The overall CO2 conversion depends on the rotational frequency of the mill's engine, and it reaches 85% within …
