Raman and/or VNIR spectroscopy is effective for other minerals associated with serpentinization, including brucite, dolomite, magnesite, magnetite, talc, and quartz. Our study provides a framework for detecting serpentinization minerals on Mars with spectrometers and can be used for data interpretation by the Mars 2020 mission.
Green and efficient reagents have gained considerable attention in flotation research, where poly-L-aspartic acid (PASP) is an effective reagent to realize the flotation separation of brucite and dolomite. The effect of PASP on the flotation of brucite and dolomite and its mechanism were studied using flotation tests and modern detection methods.
The Gabbs magnesite-brucite deposit is unique in size and is one of two magnesite deposits being exploited in the United States. It is near the town of Gabbs, which is one hundred miles southeast of Reno, in west-central Nevada. The brucite was discovered in 1927; the magnesite was found while exploring the brucite. During World War II, more …

SUMMARY AND GUIDELINES FOR MINERAL EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT. 25 Brucite currently has a relatively small market (Simandl et al. 2006), largely due to the rarity of high-grade deposits in comparison to other more common magnesium-bearing minerals, such as dolomite and magnesite. Large, high-grade brucite deposits could be a …

After studying the microstructural and compositional changes of alkali–dolomite and magnesite reactions both in KOH solution and in cement paste under 150°C autoclaving condition, the authors proposed that the formation and growth of reaction products in a confined space generated the expansion force, which was responsible for alkali ...
This review paper will focus on the importance of brucite (M g x Fe (1 − x) 2 + (OH) 2) as a metastable secondary mineral, and will present the hypothesis that brucite formation …
Many common rock-forming minerals contain magnesium; however, brucite, carnallite, dolomite and magnesite are the main ore minerals (Coope 2004). Hydrated chlorites other than carnallite (such as bischofite), brines and seawater also represent important Mg resources. In addition, serpentine (including asbestos tailings) and olivine are possible ...
Thus there are at least three mineral phases present (magnesium calcite, dolomite and magnesite) rather than one or two (magnesium calcite and brucite) as previously thought. Our results are consistent with dolomite occurrences in coralline algae rich environments in fossil reefs of the last 60 million years. We reveal that the standard method ...

Both types of brucite ores have serpentine, calcite, dolomite, magnesite, talc, and other gangue minerals [5], [6]. Calcite is a representative gangue mineral found in brucite ore [7]. However, it is a calcium carbonate mineral, which is one of the most common natural calcium carbonate, and contains Mg, Fe, and other similar substitutes ...

ABSTRACT Brucite is a type of mineral resource containing structural water and high contents of Mg, and is popular in refractory and flame-retardant materials. Dolomite is a common mineral associated with brucite, and its presence reduces the purity of brucite and utilization efficiency of resources. Therefore, in the flotation system of sodium …
The natural hydrophobicity of the minerals decreased in the order of calcite > brucite > dolomite > magnesite > quartz > serpentine. As indicated in Fig. 3 (b), brucite and quartz exhibited the highest and lowest zero-charge points, respectively (pH = 10.0 and 2.3, respectively). This trend is primarily influenced by the crystal structures of ...
