동남 스카른 광상은 백악기에 고생대 퇴적암류를 관입한 섬록암에 의해 형성되었다. 스카른의 모암은 섬록암과 묘봉 슬레이트인데 스카른 누대구조에서 모암의 종류에 따라 각각 특징적인 광물공생군의 체계적 변화를 관찰할 수 있다. 섬록암, 화강반암, 석영반암으로 구성된 화성암류들은 플룸보텍토닉 모델의 조산대에 비해 높은$^{207}Pb/^{204}Pb$ 비를 보이는데 이러한 현상은 하부지각 (또는 맨틀)에서 유래된 마그마가 상부지각물질에 의해 심히 혼화되어진 것으로 해석되며 이는 영남육괴와 옥천계에 분포하는 화강암류가 보여주는 특징과 유사하다. 현재의 납 동위원소 비와 우라늄, 토륨, 납 농도로부터 구한 광화작용 당시(76 Ma)의 황성암 및 풍촌석회암의 납 동위원소 비는 비교적 일정하지만 광화작용 후기로 갈수록 광석광물들의 납 동위원소 비가 높아진다. 초생 스카른 시기에 형성된 자철석과 방연석의 납 동위원소 비는 화성암류의 것과 거의 유사하지만 후기 열수변질시기에 형성된 휘수연석, 황철석, 그리고 열수변질된 석영반암의 납 동위원소 비는 풍촌석회암의 비에 접근하고 있다. 이는 서로 다른 기원을 가진 납들이 열수 변질시기에 따라 그 혼화의 정도가 달라지게되어 광석광물들의 납 동위원소 비에 차이가 있게 된 것으로 여겨진다. 광석광물의 납 동위원소 비의 변화특징에 의하여 섬록암과 화강반암을 형성한 마그마로부터 분화된 낮은 납 동위원소 비를 갖는 열수용액과 높은 납 동위원소 비를 갖는 주변모암(풍촌석회암)이 혼화의 기원물질로 판단된다.

Milyang pyrophyllite deposit which was formed by hydrothermal alteration occurs in Late Cretaceous andesitic tuff in the Milyang area, Gyeongsangnamdo. The wall rock alteration and genesis of the Milyang pyrophyllite deposit were studied. The ore minerals are composed dominantly of pyrophyllite accompanied by small amounts of quartz, kaolinite, pyrite, dumortierite and diaspore. The alteration halo of this deposit can be divided into three zones on the basis of mineral assemblage; pyrophyllite, sericite and chlorite zone. The common mineral assemblages of each alteration zone are as follows: (1) pyrophyllite zone; pyrophyllite-quartz-kaolinite-pyrite-dumortierite-diaspore, (2) sericite zone; sericite-quartz-pyrite-kaolinite, and (3) chlorite zone; chlorite-plagioclase-quartz. Major element chemistry shows that characteristic depletion in MgO, CaO, and $Na_2O$ and relative increase in FeO from less altered chlorite zone to extensively altered pyrophyllite zone corresponding to variation in mineral assemblages. The paragenesis of ore minerals, oxygen isotope data, chlorite and illite geothermometry suggest that ore deposit was formed at about $250{\sim}330^{\circ}C$. Both hydrogen and silica activities are high in pyrophyllite zone. Potassium activity increases in sericite zone while hydrogen activity becomes low in chlorite zone. The pyrophyllite zone was formed relatively higher temperature than those of sericite and chlorite zones. The ore fluid was considered to be magmatic water in origin derived from the residual granitic magma which interacted with meteoric water.

Regional geology of Chungil mine is composed of Cretaceous biotite granite. Chungil ore deposits are fissure filled quartz veins which developed in Cretaceous biotite granites. Mineralogic and fluid inclusion studies were undertaken to illuminate the origin of the ore deposits. Data gathered from occurrences of ore deposits and mineral paragenesis reveals that there were two major mineralization stage. The first stage is sulfides-quartz stage. The constituents of ore minerals are chalcopyrite, sphalerite, pyrrhotite with minor amount of galena, native Au, Ag, pyrite. The second stage is gangue mineral stage. Gangue minerals are quartz, fluorite and calcite. Homogenization temperature of fluid inclusions in quartz of the first and the second stage ranges from $212^{\circ}C$ to $336^{\circ}C$ and from $154^{\circ}C$ to $355^{\circ}C$ respectively. Homogenization temperature in fluorite and calcite of the second stage ranges from $127^{\circ}C$ to $252^{\circ}C$ and from $129^{\circ}C$ to $158^{\circ}C$ but these data require positive pressure corrections. Fluid inclusions in quartz of the Bongmyeong mine, Jangja the first mine and the second mine show range of homogenization temperature from $178^{\circ}C$ to $330^{\circ}C$, from $185^{\circ}C$ to $354^{\circ}C$ and from $206^{\circ}C$ to 336 respectively. The comparison of the fluid inclusion data, mineralogical component and vein attitude of the three mines with that of Chungil mine indicates that the origin of the deposits above mentioned is elucidated to be formed under similar environment. The compositions of the sphalerite in the first stage range from 16.05 mol.% FeS to 20.36 mol.% FeS.

The Au-Ag deposits of the Euiseong area occurred in quartz veins which filled fissures in Cretaceous sedimentary and volcanic rocks. These ore veins can be classified in two types of deposits based on metallic mineral assemblages as follow: a pyrite type gold-silver deposit (Hoedong mine), characterized by Cu sulfides with Au-Ag alloy, and a Sb-rich silver deposit (Keumdongdo mine), characterized by base metal with Ag-bearing sulfosalts. Mineralogic and fluid inclusion evidences suggest that the ore minerals of these deposits was deposited from initial high temperatures (near $350^{\circ}C$) to later lower temperatures ($200^{\circ}C$) with moderate salinity fluids ranging from 5.8 to 3.8 eq. wt. % NaCl. The gold-silver mineralization of the Hoedong mine occurred at temperatures between 300 and $200^{\circ}C$ from fluids with log $f_{s_2}$ of -10 ~ -16 atm. The antimony - silver mineralization of the Keumdongdo mine were deposited at the higher temperatures (350 to $250^{\circ}C$) and $f_{S_2}$ (-10 ~ -13 atm) than gold mineralization of the Hoedong mine. The calculated log f02 of fluids at $250^{\circ}C$ in two deposits are -32 to -34 atm and -36.5 to -38.5 atm, respectively. Boiling evidences indicate that the ore mineralization of the Hoedong mine occurred at more shallow depth (0.5km) than that (1km) of the Keumdongdo mine. The above differences of depositional environments between two deposits caused the compositional changes of ore minerals such as electrum and sphalerite.

The removal of arsenic(V) using four different natural minerals were evaluated. Parameters like contact time, pH, adsorbent dosages, and As(V) concentration were optimized. The kinetics of adsorption was observed to be fast and reached equilibrium within 2h. As(V) adsorption on studied minerals was dependent on pH and followed a pseudo-second-order reaction model. For kaolin, maximum adsorption was found at pH 5.0. Whereas, in case of other three minerals, a pH range of 6.0-7.0 was found to be the best for As(V) adsorption. The maximum adsorption capacity (Q) was calculated by fitting Langmuir equation to the adsorption isotherms obtained under a specified condition. From the slope of best fit, the Q values were calculated to be 2.07, 2.15, 1.95 and 0.86 mg As(V)/g of bauxite, wad, iron ore and kaolin, respectively. Desorption of As(V) from loaded materials was dependent on the type of leaching reagents used. Based on the results, it was found that among the studied natural minerals, wad was the best As(V) adsorbent.

지표에 노출된 폐광미의 산화작용으로 인해 용출된 비소와 중금속들이 광산주변 환경에 심각한 오염을 야기할 수 있다. 본 연구는 황화광물의 산화작용과 이차 광물의 생성 및 변질과 같은 다양한 작용들이 비소의 거동에 미치는 영향을 광물학적 방법을 이용하여 고찰하였다. 연구대상 광미는 강원도 정선군에 위치한 낙동광산에서 채취하였다. 전처리한 광미로부터 자성광물과 비자성 광물을 선별한 후, 현미경 관찰을 통해 광물의 색 및 금속광택에 따라 분류하였고, X-선 회절 분석기, 에너지 분산분광기, 그리고 전자탐침미세현미경 등과 같은 다양한 기기분석들을 이용하여 광물학적 특성을 조사하였다. 문헌조사에서는 다양한 광석광물이 산출되는 것으로 알려졌지만, 산화 등과 같은 풍화작용으로 인하여 본 연구에서는 일부 광석광물들과 더불어 새롭게 형성된 이차 내지 삼차 광물들을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 다량으로 존재했다고 알려진 자류철석은 동정되지 않았지만 특징적으로 콜로포옴 형태의 철 (산)수산화광물을 확인하였는데, 이는 자류철석의 큰 반응성으로 인하여 풍화가 급격하게 진행되어 자류철석이 모두 변질된 것을 입증한다. 뿐만 아니라 일차 광석광물인 유비철석의 균열부에 충진한 이차 광물인 스코로다이트를 확인할 수 있었는데 이러한 변질 과정을 통해 용출된 비소가 고정화되는 것으로 판단된다. 또한 이차 광물로 생성된 자로사이트가 다시 변질되어 삼차 광물인 철 (산)수산화광물이 형성되는 것도 관찰할 수 있었는데 이는 다양한 광석광물의 산화작용으로 인해 조성된 초기의 낮은 pH 환경으로부터 pH가 증가하는 환경으로의 전이를 지시한다. 이러한 환경의 변화는 이차 광물들과 주변 모암과의 작용 등에 기인하며 그 결과 이차 광물의 안정도가 떨어지게 되고 새로운 삼차 광물들이 형성된다. 이러한 과정에서 고정화된 비소가 재용출 되어 주변 환경에 확산되어질 수 있다.

Several mines in Jeonnam produce the ores of having high SK number of refractoriness. Among those for 5 mines, this paper deals with the relationahip between SK number and mineral composition of the ore, and with the genesis of the deposits. 1. Byok-Song and Chon-Un Mine: Mineral compositions of the ores are chiastolite, chloritoid(monoclinic), kaolinite, sericite, diaspore, corundum, and quartz. The ores having SK number of 36 or 37, consist chiefly of chiastolite and diaspore and a little amount of kaolinite, sericite, corundum, chloritoid, and quartz. The ores having SK number of 33 or 34 consist of chloritoid, sericite, kaolinite, chiastolite, and diaspore. With increasing the amount of chloritoid and sericite, and decreasing the amount of diaspore and chiastolite, the SK number of the ores decreases. The deposit, originally high alumina-bearing shale of Chon-Un San formation, seems to be formed by contact metamorphism(forming of chiastolite), regional metamorphism(forming of monoclinic chloritoid), and hydrothermal replacement(forming of large crystal of diaspore veinlets). 2. Song-Sauk Mine: Mineral compositions of the ores are chiefly pyrophyllite and quartz and a little amount of kaolinite, dickite, diaspore, and pyrite. Many spherical inclusions containing in pyrophyllite deposits, consist chiefly of diaspore and kaolinite, The inclusions have the high SK number of 38. Amount of spherical inclusions is about 5 % to the whole pyrophyllite ores. The SK number of other pyrophyllite ore is less than 32. Quartz and pyrite are chief minerals lowering the SK number of the ore. The deposits have been formed by hydrothermal processes by replacing the siliceous tuff of Mesozoic age. Spherical inclusions consisting of diaspore and kaolinite, show the selective replacement of hydrothermal solutions to the materials of feldspar in tuff. 3. Seung-San Mine: Mineral compositions of the ores are chiefly kaolinite, dickite, diaspore, and quartz. But some part of the mine consists of alunite deposits. The ores having SK number of 35 or higher consist chiefly of kaolinite and diaspore and a little amount of quartz. With increasing the amount of quartz and decresing the amount of diaspore, the SK number of the ore decreases. The deposits have been formed by hydrothermal processes by replacing the siliceous tuff and quartz porphyry. 4. Wan-Do Mine: Mineral compositions of the ores are chiefly pyrophyllite and quartz. But some ore contains a little amount of diaspore, kaolinite, pyrite, and chloritoid. The ores having high SK number of 36 consist chiefly of diaspore and pyrophyllite. Pyrophyllite ore has a SK number of 32 or lower. Amount of quartz and pyrite decreases the SK number of ores in this mine. Rhyolite was replaced by the action of hydrothermal solutions forming the pyrophyllite deposits.

Many hydrothermal skarn-type iron ore deposits inchiding Mulgeum, Yangseong, Maeri and Kimhae mines are distributed in the south-eastern Gyeongnam Province, Korea. The deposits are magnetite veins which occurred in propylitized andesitic rock near the contact with late Cretaceous Masanite. Symmetrical zoned skarns are commonly developed around the magnetite veins. The order of the skarn zones from the vein is garnet-quartz skarn, epidote skarn, and epidote-orthoclase skarn. The garnets include isotropic or anisotropic andradite($Ad_{100{\sim}70}$), and the epidotes are composed of pistacite($Ps_{21-31}$). Fe contents of the epidotes generally increase toward the magnetite veins. Epidotes and garnets often show compositional variations from grain to grain, that is, their Fe and Al contents vary inversely. This suggests that the variations depend mainly upon $fo_2$ during the skarnization. Oxygen and carbon isotope analyses of minerals from andesitic rock, micrographic granite, major skarn zones and post-mineralization zones were conducted to provide the information on the formation temperature, the origin and the evolution of the hydrothermal solution forming the iron ore deposits. Becoming more distant from the ore vein, temperatures of skarn zones represent the decreasing tendency, but most ${\delta}O^{18}$ and ${\delta}O^{18}_{H_2O}$ values of skarn minerals represent no variation trend, and also the values are relatively low. Judging from all the isotopic data from the ore deposits, the major source of hydrothemal solution altering the skarn zones and precipitating the ore bodies was magmatic water derived from the more deeply seated micrographic granite. This high temperature hydrothermal solution rising through the fissures of propylitized andesitic rock was mixed with some meteoric water, and the extensive isotopic exchange occurred with the propylitized andesitic rock. During this process, the temperature and ${\delta}O^{18}_{H_2O}$ value of hydrothermal solution were lowered gradually. At the stage of iron ore precipitation, because after all the alteration was already finished, the oxygen isotopic exchange with the wall rock was nearly not taken. The relatively high ${\delta}O^{18}$ and ${\delta}O^{18}_{H_2O}$, and relatively low ${\delta}C^{13}$ values of calcites of post mineralization stage, are the results of leaching of the high ${\delta}O^{18}$ chert xenolith in the andesitic rock and low ${\delta}C^{13}$ andesitic rock.

Minerals of system Ag-Sb have been found in iead-zinc (-silver) ores from the Dongjeom and the Taebaeg ore deposits, which were formed at later stage of the Yeonhwa 1 mine mineralization. The Ag-Sb minerals are intergrown intimately with galena, pyrargyrite and alabandite. Their chemical compositions as determined by electron microprobe analyser show that they are chracterized by relatively high content of S, up to 5.89 atomic percent. Also the composition of the minerals may be separated into two: Ag3.89 Sb1.00-Ag7.19 Sb1.00 and Ag2.96 Sb1.00-Ag4.00 Sb1.00.
