Dolomite, as a common mineral in nature, has a wide range of applications in the chemical industry, metallurgy and construction; however, its formation has puzzled researchers for centuries. It was first discovered by the French mineralogist and chemist Deodat Gratet de Dolomieu in the 18th century in the dolomite mountains of …
Accordingly, in order to better understand the dolomite problem, this paper reviews the research progress in kinetic and thermodynamic studies of dolomite genesis in recent decades. Firstly, this paper reviews the literature on the mineralogy of dolomite in order to distinguish other Ca-Mg carbonate minerals.
Physical Properties. Color: Dolomite usually ranges from white to grey, but it can also occur in shades of pink, green, brown, and even black when impurities are present. Hardness: On the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, Dolomite measures at a 3.5 to 4, signifying it's relatively soft. Luster: It has a vitreous (glass-like) to pearly luster ...
The separation of carbonate gangue minerals, such as dolomite and calcite, from phosphate ores, like apatite, is still a notorious problem in mineral processing (Wonyen et al., 2018;Yehia et al ...
The surface features of fluorapatite (FA, Ca5(PO4)3F) and dolomite (CaMg(CO3)2) conditioned with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) were examined through flotation experiments, contact angle tests, time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS), and FTIR experiments. The flotation and contact angle results suggested that …
