Brazil manganese

Most manganese today is obtained from ores found in Russia, Brazil, Australia, Republic of S. Africa, Gabon, and India. Pyrolusite and rhodochrosite are among the most common manganese minerals. The metal is obtained by reduction of the oxide with sodium, magnesium, aluminum, or by elctrolysis. 

Amethyst is a variety of quartz (Si02) that is violet to purple in color, probably because of iron and manganese impurities. It measures 7 on the Mohs hardness scale and is obtained from many places, but mainly from India and Brazil. It should not be confused with oriental amethyst, which is a purple native variety of alumina (Al203).

A nickel laterite from Piaui, Brazil was used in this study. The top size of the ore was limited to 12.5 mm. The nickel laterite was composed mainly of quartz, silico-femiginous plasma, and clay minerals. The nickel content is 0.9%. The main nickel-bearing minerals are chlorite, smectite, vermiculite, manganese oxide and silico-ferruginous plasma [6]. Since moisture content, acid concentration, retention time and drum rotation speed are operating factors in drum agglomeration, they were investigated in this study.

MANGANESE DIOXIDE. MnO. Mol. wt. 87 sp. gr. 5. It is converted into MujOj at 535°C. Is insoluble in water and HNO3 and soluble in HCl. It occurs in nature as the blue-black mineral pyrolusite, which is mined in the former USSR, Gabon, Ghana, Morocco, South Africa, India, Brazil, Mexico, and in small quantities in several U.S. states, including Tennessee, Montana and New Mexico.
