Manganese carbonate is a compound with the chemical formula Mn CO 3. Manganese carbonate occurs naturally as the mineral rhodochrosite but it is typically produced industrially. It is a pale pink, water-insoluble solid. Approximately 20,000 metric tonnes were produced in 2005. [3]
Rhodochrosite forms a complete solid solution series with iron carbonate . Calcium (as well as magnesium and zinc, to a limited extent) frequently substitutes for manganese in the structure, leading to lighter shades of red and pink, depending on the degree of substitution. This is the reason for the rose color of rhodochrosite.
Manganese is a chemical element; it has symbol Mn and atomic number 25. It is a hard, brittle, silvery metal, often found in minerals in combination with iron. Manganese was first isolated in the 1770s. It is a transition metal with a multifaceted array of industrial alloy uses, particularly in stainless steels. It improves strength ...
Kutnohorite is a rare calcium manganese carbonate mineral with magnesium and iron that is a member of the dolomite group. It forms a series with dolomite, and with ankerite.The end member formula is CaMn 2+ (CO 3) 2, [6] but Mg 2+ and Fe 2+ commonly substitute for Mn 2+, with the manganese content varying from 38% to 84%, [2] so the formula Ca(Mn 2+,Mg,Fe 2+)(CO 3) 2 better represents the species.
Manganocalcite. Manganoan calcite or manganocalcite is a variety of calcite rich in manganese, which gives the mineral a pink color. [1] Its chemical formula is (Ca,Mn)CO 3.It was first reported from the Banská Štiavnica Mining District, Slovak Republic, [1] but is widely distributed around the world, notably in the Cave of Swords at Naica, Chihuahua, Mexico as well as in Bulgaria.
Manganese(II) acetate are chemical compounds with the formula Mn(CH 3 CO 2) 2 ·(H 2 O)n where n = 0, 2, 4. These materials are white or pale pink solids. These materials are white or pale pink solids.
Ankerite, also known as brown spar [5]: 258 (German: braunspat) is a calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese carbonate mineral of the group of rhombohedral carbonates with the chemical formula Ca(Fe,Mg,Mn)(CO 3) 2.
Hausmannite is a complex oxide, or a mixed oxide, of manganese containing both di-and tri-valent manganese. Its chemical formula can be represented as Mn II Mn III 2 O 4, or more simply noted as MnO·Mn 2 O 3, or Mn 3 O 4, as commonly done for magnetite (Fe 3 O 4), the corresponding iron oxide. It belongs to the spinel group and forms ...
