Tremolite crystals from the Dongyang talc deposit were studied using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) to characterize the tremolite-to-talc reaction. [001] HRTEM images of tremolite show intergrowths of wide-chain pyriboles and talc; talc is the primary alteration product of tremolite, and triple-chain structures occur sparsely. The boundaries between tremolite and talc are commonly well defined by (010) and (100) interfaces. (001) talc layers are parallel to (100) of tremolite, and the interfaces between tremolite and talc appear to be coherent in HRTEM images, indicating that most talc laters formed directly from tremolite by a gydration reaction. However, some talc formed along (110) of tremolite, and talc layers are not extended from (010) of tremolite, suggesting that part of talc in the deposit was produced through a dissolution-precipitation mechanism. Carbonate minerals are also associated with tremolite and talc. Common replacement of dolomite by calcite indicates that the tremolite-to-talc reaction results in remnant Ca, which was eventually consumed to replace dolomite to form clacite. Some Mg Produced by dolomite during reaction to calcite was apparently utilized to form talc, because talc formation from tremolite requires extra Mg. Although talc could be formend directly from dolomite, extensive alteration of tremolite to talc suggests that part of talc of the deposit was produced from tremolite that was formed by dolomite reaction during an early stage metamorphism.

폴리프로필렌(polypropylene, PP)/talc 컴파운드를 talc의 조성을 20wt%로 하여 마스터뱃취(master-batch, MB)와 사출기를 이용한 직접 제조법으로 각각 제조하였다. MB는 talc 함량을 50wt%로 하여 소형 혼합기(mini compounder)로 $200^{\circ}C$에서 제조하였다. SEM-EDS를 이용하여 PP/talc 컴파운드의 talc 분산정도를 평가하였다. MB를 이용하여 제조한 컴파운드의 talc 분산성이 우수하게 나타났다. PP/talc 컴파운드의 유변학적 특성을 동적유변측정기를 이용하여 측정하였다. MB를 이용한 MB-PP 컴파운드가 직접 제조한 컴파운드보다 shear thinning과 탄성특성이 증가하였다. G'-G" plot의 기울기 변화로부터 talc 분산성 정도를 확인하였고, 탄성특성 증가를 확인하기 위해 Van Gurp-Palmen 분석을 이용하였다.

In Korea, talc that has been widely used for a lot of consumer products as well as industrial usage until recently was found to be contaminated with asbestos. It becomes a major social issue. Critical health risk about both talc and talc contaminated with asbestos was summarized through literature review. It has been confirmed that talc can pose ovarian cancer when talc powder is used in the genital area. International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) already concluded that the perineal use of cosmetic talc can cause possibly carcinogenic to humane(Group 2B), although there was study reporting the lack of a consistent an established correlation between perineal dusting frequency and ovarian tissue talc concentrations and the lack of a consistent dose-response relationship with ovarian cancer risk. The association between talc exposure and ovarian cancer is as strong as in recent studies. The epidemiological studies to date provided inadequate evidence for the carcinogenicity of either inhaled or ingested talc that does not contain asbestos or asbestosiform fibers. Future studies should focus on seeking evidence in talc-exposed populations, collecting reliable information on age at initial used of body powder, exposure assessments related to talc use and dose response relationship in order to identify possible risk of talc ingested or inhaled.

The Daehung and Pyeongan talc mines are located in the Yoogoo area, Chungcheongnam-Do. These deposits occur as the complex vein type in the ultramafic rocks which intruded Precambrian gneiss. The talc ore formed from sepentinitt: originated from ultramafic rocks but some of those from hornblende gneiss. The talcification processes were considered here on the basis of the mineral assemblages, paragenesis, and geochemistry. It appears that there are five processes in talcification ; serpentine$\rightarrow$talc, phlogopite$\rightarrow$chlorite$\rightarrow$talc, phlogopite$\rightarrow$talc, hornblende$\rightarrow$chlorite$\rightarrow$talc, and hornblende$\rightarrow$talc. Among them, the most dominant alteration path is serpentine to talc in these deposits. EPMA data suggest that there might be interstratified minerals were in between parent mineral and talc such as serpentine and talc, and phlogopite and talc. It can be found that tremolite exists in between the inner and outer most part of talcified serpentinite blocks coated with phlogopite. Some of tremolites has been altered to talc. The quartz veins and carbonate minerals were found in the talc ore zone. It indicates that the hydrothermal solution played an important role in talcification. The hydrothermal alteration occured after sepentinization. Ore zones can be divided into two zones; talc-serpentine zone preserving a pseudormorph of olivine (mesh texture) and talc-phlogopite zone showing talcification from phlogopite directly or through chlorite. It can be concluded that the formation of major talc ore body was due to talcification of serpentinite and phlogopite by hydrothermal solution. A nature of hydrothermal solution was relatively pure water at the beginning of serpentinization, and was getting richer in silica composition. There was a large amount influx of K and AI with hydrothermal solution in the later stage, and increased $P_{CO_{2}}$ also. It suggests that phlogopite formed in later stages as a secondary mineral. So, the major part of the talc ore body was formed from one parents rocks, serpentinite originated from ultramafic rocks, by hydrothermal solutions at several times.

동양활석광상에서 산출되는 백운석기원 활석(활석 I)과 투각섬석기원 활석(활석 II)의 차이를 밝히기 위해 광물조성을 연구하였다. 활석 II의 철과 알루미늄 평균 함량이 각각 2.18 wt%와 0.31 wt%이고, 활석 각각 1.48 wt%와 0.08 wt%로서 전자의 경우가 높다. 활석 I보다 활석 II에서 Mg/(Mg+Fe+Mn)비가 일정한 값으로 꾸준히 낮고, 마찬가지로 Al 함량이 높은 것은 이들의 근원물질인 투각섬석과 백운석의 조성의 차이에서 기인된 것으로 보인다. 활석 II에서의 Al과 Fe가 투각섬석 경우보다 부화된 것은 변질작용 중에 이들 원소의 불유동성과 열수용액의 급격한 확산에 기인된 것으로 해석되며, 후자의 경우 활석 ll의 불완전성장과 함께 순간적인 성핵을 촉진시키게 된다. 광석 중에 투각섬석기원 활석의 양이 증가하면 투각섬석 자체의 함량과 Al과 Fe 등의 불순물 증가로 인해 광석의 품위는 저하된다.

Talc as a coating pigment has been developed in order to replace GCC and clay for matte grade and has received much attention due to various advantages including good gravure printability. In order to elucidate the effects of talc on gravure printability, model papers were produced with three kinds of coating talc whose particle size and brightness are different. Physical properties related to surface and structure and the gravure printability of the sample were tested. Coating color with talc showed lower viscosity than that with clay. For both matte and art grades, talc tended to give lower gloss than day. The smaller the particle size of talc, the better properties in the coating color viscosity and water retention. When the particle size of talc was small enough, the surface roughness of the coated paper produced with talc was similar to that with clay while larger talcs produced rougher surface than clay. On top of that, application of talc improved compressibility and gravure printability of coated paper.

Talc durg has been used at Oriental Medical Hospital of Kyung San University, and was analysed for mineralogical and geochemical studies. It consists mainly of talc with small amount of tremolite, dolomite and bursite, and its chemical compositions of MgO 31.65% and $SiO_2$ 61.0%, and cotain less inpurtities. Moreover, talc from the Dong Yang Talc mine is associated with calcite, gypsum and anhydrite, which belong to more soluble mineral drugs than talc, and contains Ca and Fe. These elements may give at least medical medical to talc durg as in the case of actinolite. Therfore, talc of high quality from the Dong Yang Tacl Mine may be used instead of imported expensive talc durg. Diagrams of log $a_{Mg^{2+}}$-pH and log $a_{Mg^{2+}}/a{\array{2\\H^+} $-log $a_{H_4SiO_4}$- may be used as basic data to predict and examine soluble contents of durg for medical experiments.

Poongjeon talc deposits is emplaced in dolomite and dolomitic limestone of the Cambro-Ordovician Samtaesan Formation. Ore in Poongjeon is low grade talc and the deposit has been known as the contact metasomatic or hydrothermal replacement type related to the intrusion of late Cretaceous granite in this area. X-ray diffraction, electron microprobe analysis, fluid inclusion and stable isotope analysis were utilized to examine the mineralogy of the ore and the origin of the ore fluid. The ore from Poongjeon mine mainly consists of talc and tremolite with minor amount of illite, vermiculite, smectite, and chlorite-vermiculite mixed layer. Occurrence of ore body indicates that the talc-tremolite ore was formed through the replacement by the $SiO_2$-rich hydrothermal fluid along the bedding and dike boundaries, or contact of amphibolite and basic dike with carbonate rocks. The temperature and pressure of the ore forming fluids at the time of the talc mineralization were estimated as $350^{\circ}C$ and 400 bar, respectively, based on the heating and freezing data of the fluid inclusions in quartz from talc-tremolite veins. During the talc-tremolite formation, fluids were divided into $CO_2$-enriched fluid and $CO_2$-poor fluid from $CO_2$ immiscibility (or effervescence). Oxygen isotope values (${\delta}^{18}O$) of the talc-tremolite fall within a range between 12.2 and 12.9‰. Hydrogen isotope values(${\delta}D$) of the ore range from -60 to -85‰ and $H_2O$ contents range from 2.0 to 3.4 wt.%. ${\delta}^{18}O$ and ${\delta}D$ values of talc ore indicate that the hydrothermal fluid involved in talc-tremolite formation was of igneous origin. Oxygen and hydrogen isotopic exchange between talc ore and the surface water was negligible after talc-tremolite ore formation.

The talc of the Daeheung, Pyeongan, and Cheongdang (Shinyang) talc deposits in the Yesan-Gongju-Cheongyang area is a hydrothermal alteration product of serpentinite originated from ultramafic rocks. The mineral assemblages in alteration zones are: serpentine, serpentine-talc, talc, talc-chlorite, talc-phlogopite-chlorite, and talc-tremolite-chlorite. Chemical distributions in both the Al2O3-FeO-MgO system and the immobile elements suggest that the serpentine-talc and talc rocks are the reaction product of ultramafic rocks and silicic hydrothermal solution without addition of other granitic components, whereas chlorite-, phlogopite-, and tremolite-bearing rocks are the metasomatic alteration product of serpentinite by hydrothermal solution affected by granitic gneiss. Discontinuities in the immobile element ratios of mineral assemblages are due to changes in their mineralogy. The relative contents of Al2O3, TiO2, Zr in the talc-phlogopite-chlorite and talc-tremolite-chlorite rocks increase irregularly with increasing phlogopite, tremolite, and/or chlorite contents in contrast to other ore types. But the relative contents of Cr, Ni, and Co are uniform in all the mineral assemblages. Chemistry of each mineral assemblage formed by steatitization of serpentinite suggests that Cr, Co, Ni, MgO, and Fe2O3 are relatively immobile during the alteration, whereas SiO2, Al2O3, CaO, and K2O are highly increased. The contents of chlorite, phlogopite, and tremolite in each mineral assemblage might be controlled by addition of Al2O3, K2O, and CaO, respectively. The high contents of other elements than immobile elements in the altered rocks as compared with unaltered rocks indicate that a large amount of elements were introduced from hydrothermal solution up to about 8∼41% in total mass showing maximum value in the talc-phlogopite-chlorite rock.
