The article presents the results of study of the Ilmeno-Vishnevogorsky and Buldym carbonatite complexes in the Urals. It has been established that the carbonatites of the Ilmeno-Vishnevogorsky complex are represented by hightemperature calciocarbonatites (svites I and II) with pyrochlore ore mineralization. U-Ta-rich populations of uranium pyrochlores (I) and

29-08-2019Candoglia calcitic marble (80–85% CaCO 3 and the 15–20% other minerals) shows a characteristic pink to gray colour and a coarse-grained texture (3 mm): frequent centimetre-thick dark-greenish silicate layers (mainly represented by diopside and tremolite) characterize the texture of the marble.

When sulfurous, sulfuric, and nitric acids in polluted air and rain react with the calcite in marble and limestone, the calcite dissolves. In exposed areas of buildings and statues, we see roughened surfaces, removal of material, and loss of carved details. Stone surface material may be lost all over or only in spots that are more reactive.

Calcite is often the primary constituent of the shells of marine organisms, such as plankton (such as coccoliths and planktic foraminifera ), the hard parts of red algae, some sponges, brachiopods, echinoderms, some serpulids, most bryozoa, and parts of the shells of some bivalves (such as oysters and rudists ).

05-03-2022Over the course of millions of years they dissolve away the outer shell, sometimes replacing the molecules of exoskeleton with molecules of calcite or other minerals. In time the entire shell is replaced leaving rock in the exact shape of the trilobite. That is the fossilization process at work. How did trilobites adapt to their environment?

The major composition of coarse-grained marble K is calcite. Their average grain sizes are 1–2 mm and 2–4 mm ( Figure 1 a,b), respectively. The marble K is more heterogeneous because larger grains usually have lower boundary cohesion [ 20 ], which results in significant differences of strength between grains and contacts. Figure 1.
