The recent MUSIC model makes it possible to estimate the PZC of individual samples from well-established physical quantities when the structure and contribution of different faces to the total surface area are known. For example, Hiemstra et al. [4] found a PZC at pH 7.5 for the (100) face of goethite, and at pH 10.7 for the (001) and (010 ...
Gem-quality rubies and sapphires are often commercially heat treated at about 800 °C or higher to enhance their color and clarity, and hence quality. For this study, selected corundum samples containing diaspore and goethite inclusions were heated step-by-step to a maximum of 1000 °C with the aim of monitoring the dehydration and phase …
Fig. 4 shows the adsorption of humic acid onto goethite-coated sand over the pH range, 2.5–7.5.

Gravity separation is used in mineral processing to separate minerals based on differences in their specific gravity . REEs are good candidates for the gravity separation method as they have relatively large specific gravities (4–7) and are typically associated with gangue minerals (primarily silicates) that is significantly less dense [1,12].
The separation of the three minerals was performed by wet magnetic separation method by applying varying magnetic field intensities (0.11, 0.29, 0.56, 0.82 and 1.08 T). The data obtained for the wet
The aim of this study was to precipitate goethite from high-iron(II)-bearing atmospheric and heap leach solutions of lateritic nickel ore generated either by reductive leaching of the ore or by reducing Fe(III) of the leach solution to Fe(II) using a suitable reducing agent and to understand the Ni and Co losses during the iron precipitation. …

2.3 Paragenesis. Typical weathering product, particularly in secondary supergene concentrations of sulphides (oxidation zone, gossan), laterites and limonites but also as a primary mineral in hydrothermal and sedimentary formations. Goethite is a mineral that continues to form on the earth's surface on a daily basis, due to the poor …

The obtained goethite particles were annealed at different temperature for 2 h (100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800 °C) and retained for further characterization. The goethite labeled as G25 and the heated goethite labeled as G100, where G denotes goethite and the number denotes the thermal treatment temperature. …
In redox-affected soil environments, electron transfer between aqueous Fe(II) and solid-phase Fe(III) catalyzes mineral transformation and recrystallization processes. While these processes have been studied …
A reduction roast is already used on weakly magnetic (hematite, siderite or limonite) iron ores to improve the magnetic susceptibility of the iron-bearing minerals by converting these into magnetite.
FT-IR spectra of the synthesized goethite mineral (Fig. 2) show very broad IR band at 3174.1 cm −1, which can be attributed to the stretching vibration of surface H 2 O molecules.The characteristic sharp bands at 798.0 cm −1 and 892.4 cm −1 can be assigned to the Fe–O–OH bending vibration in α-FeOOH. The 656.7 cm −1 band is …
Wet Gravity Separation (WGS) was performed after crushing the samples to a particle size less than 125 μm. The samples were beneficiated through the concentration of high specific gravity minerals such as REEs bearing minerals and the elimination of a significant portion of the low specific gravity minerals such as Quartz.

Details of the common iron ore and associated gangue minerals found in many iron ore deposits and iron ore products are given in Table 2.1.The three most common iron ore minerals are magnetite, hematite (the spelling "hematite" is preferred here over "haematite"), and goethite, which together account for an estimated >99% of the …
Generally, goethite formed by natural differentiation has poor crystallization and is rich in defects and impurities, which make the good surface activity of goethite. Most goethite crystals are needle-like or columnar, formed by FeO 3 (OH) 3 octahedrons connected into octahedral pairs with common edges, and grow as double chains along …

1 Introduction. Goethite is an antiferromagnetic iron-oxy-hydroxide (α-FeOOH) that crystallizes in the orthorhombic system. Goethite crystals are made out of smaller crystallites of which magnetic properties are coupled by the interaction between crystallites (Mørup 1990; Coey et al. 1995).Over the last century, goethite has been …
