The simulated C02 fugacity matches the initial reservoir C02 content and indicates that the pH is buffered by C02-calcite equilibrium. Further modelling was carried out using the Geochemists Workbench React and Tact modules with the thermodynamic database modified to reflect the elevated P conditions and kinetic rate parameters consistent with the Waarre C mineralogy. The Waarre C shows low reactivity and short-term predictive modelling of the system under elevated C02 content changes little with time (Fig. 1). 

Since the biogeochemical model PROFILE includes such important characteristics as mineral abundance, another model UPPSALA has been created that allows the researcher to calculate the soil mineralogical composition on the basis of total element content. The combination of these models (PROFILE and UPPSALA) gives the possibility to use existing soil and ecosystem databases for calculating critical loads of acidity in broad-scale regions. 

A database of chemical, mineralogical, and physical characteristics of North American fly ashes was assembled from the analysis of more than 178 samples of North American fly ash (McCarthy et al 1989). These fly ashes were derived from the combustion of five principal...

Some insight into this issue may be obtained by combining the experimentally determined phase equilibria with internally consistent thermodynamic databases, which allow interpolation and extrapolation of the extant data. In a series of papers, Kerrick and Connolly (1998, 2001a,b) calculated phase equihbria and modal mineralogies... 

In this chapter the mineral-melt phase equilibria that control the compositions of partial melts are examined on the basis of experimental and thermodynamic databases, and this information is used to predict the effects of partial melt extraction from fertile upper mantle on residual mineralogy and major-element chemistry. 

Because sedimentary carbonates are important rock types in terms of providing mineralogical, chemical, biological, and isotopic data useful in interpretation of the history of Earth s surface environment, the following sections discuss these rock types in some detail. The discussion is mainly limited to the Phanerozoic because of the more complete database for this Eon than for the Precambrian. 

Mindat.org http //www.mindat.org/ (accessed July 12, 2010), The site states that it is the largest mineral database and mineralogical reference Web site on the Internet. The site contains worldwide data on mineral properties, localities, and other mineralogical information worldwide. Visitors are invited to search minerals by properties, by chanistry to browse alphabetical and chemical indexes of minerals, or to link to mineral dealers. The site has 38,322 mineral names (including synonyms, varieties, etc.) and 210,495 different localities (from Web page). 

The difficulties and uncertainties associated with the assessment of occupational or environmental dust exposures from occupational histories, job exposure matrixes or calculations from specific exposure databases have led clinicians, pathologists and epidemiologists to investigate the capacities associated with the mineralogical analysis of lung samples.
