Phlogopite is a common mineral in marbles where it associates with calcite, dolomite, quartz, diopside, and tremolite; less commonly, it is found in highly magnesium-rich igneous rocks or in pegmatites. Related Minerals Phlogopite has several different polymorphs; they are difficult to tell apart without detailed X-ray studies.

Note that we refer in the title of this polemic to 'carbonatite-forming magmas' rather than the commonly used 'carbonatite magma' or 'carbonatite melt', as the actual composition of any calcite or dolomite carbonatite-forming magma is not known. Typically, many carbonatites appear to be rocks formed by crystal fractionation from a variety of …

What Are The Physical Characteristics of Dolomite? Dolomite typically has a Mohs hardness of 3.5 to 4, making it somewhat soft and easy to work with. It's also relatively lightweight, with a specific gravity of 2.8 to 2.9. Additionally, dolomite is chemically inert, meaning it won't react with other materials.

Dolostone is a rock that consist of >75 percent dolomite. Dolostones are alsocalled dolomites, especially in the literature prior to about 1990, but the term dolomites should be used only for different types of dolomite. Two types of dolomite formation are common, that is, dolomitization, which is the replacement of CaCO 3 by CaMg (CO 3) 2, …

The crystal structure of dolomite is similar to calcite with Mg ions substituting for Ca in every other layer. To accommodate this substitution, due to differences in bond lengths between Ca–CO 3 and Mg–CO 3 (238 pm versus 208 pm, respectively), CO 3 in the Mg layer is uniformly rotated about the threefold axis relative to calcite (Reeder and …

Rather, calcium- magnesium carbonate precipitates in a disordered manner, and then order emerges from a slow maturation process on a geological timescale (6, 7).The surface of the initial …

Dolomite shares a broadly similar chemistry with other carbonate minerals like calcite and aragonite, and consequently is used in much the same way. By volume, the most important uses of dolomite are in the production of concrete and as aggregate construction material. Significant amounts of dolomite are also used as dolostone and dolomitic ...
