Manganese Extract

Manganese Extract

Seen manganese ore mainly in the form of secondary manganese oxides of the metal, which were recorded in many areas west of the kingdom, but did not register any occurrences of manganese deposits in sufficient quantities in reserves can be exploited yet. The following will be a brief narrative of the most famous sites of manganese deposits in the Kingdom, which lies mainly in the area of ​​Alkhniqih as well as along the eastern side of the base metal deposits as well as deposits of precious metals. Especially in those hosted carbonate rocks exist in the form of surface coatings on the rocks in some areas of mineralization, but the quantity is very negligible and has no economic importance. Was recorded amounts of manganese in the form of thin layers ranging in thickness from 1 mm to 2 cm in the depths of the Red Sea at the edges of the Atlantis II Deep.

Area Alkhniqih:

Concentrated iron and manganese oxides secondary in that region within the limestone lenses and which belongs to the pre-Cambrian periods, in the form of intertwined with the bodies of copper minerals - zinc sulphide the Alkhniqih area. Been identified metals manganese, which includes Alberozwait, and Almagenati, and Alheitrulat, and Alcalkuffinet, while reside metals manganese initial accompanying parts rich Balsvalerit in the bodies of mineralization but generally mineralized quantities not exceeding 1% or less of oxide manganese (MnO), and recorded the highest value in parts AlmtaxdhAlso extends ranges oxidation only to depths of 30 meters below the surface, or less so Vtkon amount of crude, which is characterized by a degree Sort high manganese few, this has not been extracted manganese commonly used materials of sulfides of copper, zinc during production processes and extraction of these materials as a by and also the objects manganese ores slim to be very mining work independently.

Alrgamh Formation:

The rocks Aldlomat located Bmtkon Alrgamh which exist along the shores of the Red Sea beguile of bearing rocks of manganese, which has been exploring crude which in many locations in North Trowel, which extends between longitudes 25 ° 00 'to 25 ° 32' North. And been replaced partially Aldlomat by manganese oxides. There are two locations of manganese have been selected and namely Mount Aldkhilan and Trowel North and two exploration Rasba lead and zinc. Most of the samples were collected from these two areas contain about 1% of manganese oxide and also the degree of sorting manganese oxide (MnO) where Aldlomat crumbly granules sharp angles, but the quantities of these materials rich Palmngenaz can ignore because I said it. Covering dolomite rocks content Bmtkon the directional more Alrgamh in the north and east of the Gulf of Aqaba between longitudes 28 ° 11 'and 28 ° 31' north, but the proportion of manganese oxide (MnO) in samples collected between 0.7 to 4.8%. Therefore, the low percentage of oxide manganese MnO in Dlomat Alrgamh were not encouraging for exploration but inseparability Activity associated geochemical world-famous between oxides manganese and those types of sedimentary rocks (rocks dolomite) encourage to do more prospective studies to achieve if there reservoirs of raw manganese is not prior disclosure or not.

Alhilla:

Represents the bottom of the limestone algal (rich algae) and above the rocks Precambrian in composed cotton relationship does not compromise interconnected with iron stretch between (41 ° 45'-21 ° 44 ') east, which include thin layers and fill oxides manganese cracks and cracks also filled with Alruddocroset metal. The manganese layers thicker than 3 m. And contains samples that have been collected on the ratios ranging from 2.64 - 22.28% of the oxide manganese (MnO) and concentrated material manganese more in the direction of the north Bmtkon Mount Cotton at the intersection of 41 ° 43 ') east of 21 ° 58' North) and also works hand with Valley Althwairia.

Manganese surface:

 Common metals oxides manganese secondary surface in rock Almtsahbh with deposits of metals value, and tends manganese because concentrated in areas Algosanat advanced in those sediments, as well as develop Algosanat present in many of the residues of lead zinc - copper in carbonate rocks in the region, which extends between deposit nest Shuaib at the intersection (9 ° 15 'North 43 ° 40' east (even Mount Alamueriqh ('22 ° 19 North '35 ° 43 East) and recorded the amount of manganese in those areas too small to prepare as promising areas for manganese ore deposits
