Mineralogy of the clay fraction of Alfisols in two slope curvatures: III - spatial variability
A good knowledge of the spatial distribution of clay minerals in the landscape facilitates the understanding of the influence of relief on the content and crystallographic attributes of soil minerals such as goethite, hematite, kaolinite and gibbsite ...

ABSTRACT Understanding the processes that drive soil formation is crucial for developing sustainable land‐use strategies, as changing land‐use practices and climate change exacerbate soil erosion. The formation of substantial arable soils on carbonate bedrock requires substantial dust accretion as the underlying bedrock lacks siliciclastic material. In

Goethite is a naturally anisotropic, antiferromagnetic iron oxide. Following its atomic structure, crystals grow into a fine needle shape that has interesting properties in a magnetic field.

Abstract Chronological studies of glacial sediments from the Shishapangma and Yarlung Tsangpo River valley indicate that Quaternary glaciation on the southern Tibetan Plateau commenced at ∼0.75–0.83 Ma. However, the oldest glacial deposits in the northern plateau are dated to only ∼0.46 Ma, markedly later than the Middle Pleistocene glacial ...

Phosphate sorption by goethite and kaolinite‐goethite (k‐g) system as described by isotherms
Abstract Goethite and kaolinite are active sorbents in soils and sediments. Unfortunately measuring their phosphate sorption capacity is difficult, because of the relatively low proportion of these clay minerals in many natural mixtures and the difficulties involved in concentrating and separating them from accompanying minerals.

Abstract The collisional evolution of the micro‐blocks in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau is relatively well constrained. However, the reason why a fragment of the North China Block, the Olongbuluke Block, became separated from North China by the Central Qilian Block (a fragment of the South China Block) remains unclear.

Phyllosilicate-based adsorbents decorated with iron oxyhydroxides: Application for lead, chromates and selenites removal [PDF]
Expanded vermiculite (EVer) was acid activated and silanized in order to obtain suitable substrate’s surface for decoration with iron oxyhydroxides (IO).

Ochre is a natural pigment of yellow or red color, mainly consisting of iron minerals. Along with determining the origin of mineral dyes, one of the main problems of studying natural pigments in archaeology is identifying the origin of the so-called “red”

The Carajás Province, located in the southeastern Amazon, hosts some of the world’s largest high-grade iron deposits. Despite their economic importance, the processes linking lateritic weathering and iron enrichment remain incompletely understood.
