Caracterização química e mineralógica de birnessita natural da Mina do Azul (Província Mineral de Carajás, Brasil) e seu análogo sintético (K-OL-1) obtido pelo método sol-gel
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2016-06) FIGUEIRA, Bruno Apolo Miranda; ANGÉLICA, Rômulo Simões; COSTA, Marcondes Lima da; MERCURY, José Manuel Rivas; SANTOS, Manoel Roberval Pimentel dos; POELLMANN, Herbert
This paper presents a comparative chemical and mineralogical study of birnessite (BIR-AZ) collected from Azul mine (Carajás Province, Brazil) and its synthetic analogous synthesized by sol-gel method. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, FT-Raman spectroscopy, thermal analysis (TG-DTA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and ICP-MS techniques. The results obtained confirm the presence of well-defined layer structures having monoclinic system, C2/m space group and the unit cell parameters are: BIR-AZ, a = 5.148 Å; b=2.843 Å, c=7.175 Å, and β = 100.75º; K-OL-SG, a = 5.150 Å; b = 2.846 Å, c = 7.214 Å, and β= 101.29º. The birnessite from Azul mine ores shows thermal stability up to 600 ºC, whereas its synthetic analogous, above 900 ºC. FT-Raman bands at 635, 570 and 410 cm-1 were identified and attributed to the Mn-O and K-O bond deformations in the birnessite structure. SEM images reveals that the manganese oxide mineral consist of platy packed particles of about 1 to 5 µm. By contrast, the morphology of the synthetic compound displays randomly arranged globules (<1 µm).

Comportamento térmico e evolução das fases de óxidos de Mn com estrutura hollandita da região Amazônica
(2013-03) FIGUEIRA, Bruno Apolo Miranda; ANGÉLICA, Rômulo Simões; COSTA, Marcondes Lima da; POELLMANN, Herbert; MERCURY, José Manuel Rivas
The tunnel-structure manganese oxide minerals, hollandite (Apuí, Amazonas state, Brazil, area in prospection) and cryptomelane (Urucum, Mato do Sul Grosso state, Brazil) were isolated and characterized chemical, mineralogical, thermal and morphologically. The following techniques were employed: scanning electron microscopy-EDS, thermal analysis (DTA-TG), X-ray diffraction with continuous-heating. The empirical formula, were calculated on the basis 16 oxygen gave as (Ba0,18K0,12Ca0,02Pb0,04)0,76(Mn6,34Al0,61Si0,25Fe0,24Ti0,08) 7,54O160,4H2O for hollandite and (K0,9Na0,04Ca0,03Sr0,04) 1,04 (Mn7,38Fe0,28Al0,27Si0,08) 8O16 for cryptomelane. The SEM investigations allowed the differentiation of the morphologies for hollandite and cryptomelane. The minerals were thermally treated among 100-900 ºC and X-ray diffraction patterns in situ were collected. The analysis of X-ray diffractions experiments showed that a hollandite-crytomelane mineral has a thermal stability up to 900 ºC.

O Refinamento de Rietveld como um método para o controle de qualidade de minérios de ferro
(2002-04) KONIG, Uwe; POELLMANN, Herbert; ANGÉLICA, Rômulo Simões
The Rietveld method is an innovative technique for quality control and processing. A Quantification of iron ores with 2 and more phases is possible in a fraction of the time needed till now. This paper shows the most essential bases to the conditioning, preparation and quantification of simple mixtures of hematite, magnetite, goethite and quartz as principle ingredients of iron ores. Special preparation methods are necessary due to the anisotropic hematite crystals. Different sample preparations parameters must be evaluated prior to Rietveld quantification, for instance, "side loading" or "back loading" are recommended. The duration of grinding depends on the respective ore and hematite variety, usually between 4 and 12 minutes. A quantification of a 3 phases mixture turned out well with a maximum relative standard deviation of 3%.

The Belterra Clay On The Bauxite Deposits Of Rondon Do Pará, Eastern Amazon
(Sociedade Brasileira de Geologia, 2018-09) NEGRÃO, Leonardo Boiadeiro Ayres; COSTA, Marcondes Lima da; POELLMANN, Herbert
Bauxite deposits in the Amazon region are commonly covered by yellowish clays which can reach up to 25m thick, known as Belterra Clay (BTC). In Rondon do Pará, Eastern Amazon, BTC is 13m thick and covers world-class bauxite reserves. Three pilot bauxite mines were investigated in Rondon do Pará for an initial characterization of the local BTC. In discordant contact with the lateritic profile, the BTC has reddish brown colors at its base to ocher tones towards the top. It has a massive structure with silt-clayey texture and nodular bauxitic fragments at its base. Rietveld mineral quantification of the material attests that it is dominated by kaolinite, with goethite, gibbsite, hematite, anatase and residual quartz. The thermal behavior of the material also confirms its mineralogical composition. Kaolinite is of low structural order, which was considered the main difficulty in the application of the Rietveld method. Goethite has up to 33 mol% of Al. As observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the minerals represent pseudo-hexagonal crystals measuring from 150 to 700 nm. The BTC in the studied area is correlated to BTC on others bauxitic deposits of the Amazon region, suggesting this material experienced the same genesis and geological evolution, probably during the Pliocene.
