Oxygen Isotope Fractionation between Carbonate Minerals and Carbonic Acid Systems and Constraints for Environmental Science and Geological Processes [PDF]
MoleculesThe equilibrium oxygen isotope fractionation factor is widely used in geological thermometry. However, under most natural conditions, the oxygen isotope exchange is rare to reach equilibrium. Especially for the complex water–rock interaction process, the

Smithsonite flotation with lauryl phosphate
Minerals Engineering, 2020 Abstract Smithsonite, the most abundant nonsulfide zinc mineral, has attracted growing attention due to the demand for zinc and the exhaustion of traditional sulfide zinc resources. Traditional flotation techniques are not efficient and do not easily separate smithsonite from other carbonate minerals, such as calcite. In this regard, lauryl phosphate

Bonds, bands and elasticity of smithsonite rock
Solid State Communications, 2013 Abstract The objective here is to spread out in detail the various fundamental state properties of smithsonite rock (ZnCO 3 ) for which the most intrinsic quantities remain still unknown. First-principles electronic structure calculations based on the density functional theory with the pseudopotential method were performed using diverse functionals ...
