9780428048266 - Relation Between Specific Gravity and Iron Content of Rocks From the Red Mountain Formation, Alabama (Classic Reprint) de Sheldon, Richard Porter (1 resultados)

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the correlation between specific gravity and iron content in rocks from the Red Mountain Formation in Alabama, utilizing a novel balance to measure specific gravity accurately and rapidly. The author theoretically examines the relationship between mineralogy and specific gravity, focusing on the effects of iron minerals, gangue minerals, and porosity. Statistical analysis is applied to experimental data to validate the theoretical equations and assess their accuracy in estimating iron content. The book further explores the implications of these findings for quality-controlled selection of iron ores, demonstrating how specific gravity measurements can guide the selection of samples for chemical analysis, optimizing exploration programs. Ultimately, the insights gained from this research contribute to a deeper understanding of the relationship between specific gravity and iron content, providing valuable guidance for the evaluation and exploration of iron ore resources.
