Abstract Sending microwaves through bauxite ore allows almost continuous measurement of moisture content during offload by conveyor belt from a ship. Data and results microwave analyser were brought to European Study Group with Industry at the University Limerick, over-arching question whether are accurate enough. The equipment uses linear regression against phase shifts signal attenuation infe...

Quantum mechanical electronic structure calculations are playing an increasingly useful role in many areas of mineralogy and geochemistry. This review introduces the density functional method for such calculations, gives an overview of the density functionals developed at the University of Minnesota, and summarizes selected applications using these density functionals that are relevant to miner...

Bauxite formation is usually possible in humid and tropical weather conditions with the enrichment of minerals containing Al2O3 environment. These are found chemical compositions that rich major trace elements, REEs. Karst-type bauxites have different characteristics terms REE elements since they undergo alteration processes. Various correlations can be evaluated using geostatistical methods to...
