The composition of Glauconite is K1-X (Al, Fe) 2 [Al1-XSi3+XO10] (OH) 2, Crystalline is the monoclinic system laminated structure of silicate minerals.
Its chemical composition is similar to mica but compared with Mica, the Al/Si value of glauconite is smaller, the K value is less, and the Na replacement value can be up to 0.5%.
The K ion contents and Fe ion contents in glauconite are not the same too according to the geological age and rock lithology.
Usually, the K2O contents of glauconite produced in the early paleozoic era are higher, and the Fe contents of glauconite which was produced in the deposit of modern oceans are higher.
The fresh Glauconite is green color, dark green color, and opacity.
It shows as blade shape to round granular or irregular worm shape, board shape, etc.
The hardness is 2~3 Moh's, crisp characteristic, and bulk density is 2.2~2.8g/cm3.
Glauconite is used for water treatment and soil improvement.
It absorbs the Ca and Mg Ion in water and releases the Na Ions in water treatment.
It removes the water-soluble iron salt and manganese.
It also can be used as a polishing agent for paint, glass, etc.
Glauconite is formed in the reduction of the state of the shallow sea environment and slow deposition, It is produced from the 10~250 meters depth variable temperature sea zoon. It is called the Depth Indicator or Indicator of Slow Sedimentation.
