The Zijiang River (referred to as "ZR") is an important tributary of the Dongting Lake Basin in the midstream region of the Yangtze River. The ZR Basin is located in the ultra-large Sb ore belt, and various Sb ores have been confirmed in the basin, for example, the world's largest Sb mine, Xikuangshan, is in this region (Liu et al., 2023).Due to hundreds of years of …
The mineral composition of antimony ore waste rocks was observed and analyzed by XRD. The PTEs were determined by AFS (Hydride Generation-atomic Fluorescence) after digestion. The digestion process involved: Five samples of particle size 1 (0.100 g) were placed in PTFE digestion vessels along with one blank sample; acid was added (5 mL of HNO 3 ...
Types of Sb deposits and composition of ore-bearing solutions Antimony is one of the main ore-forming elements not only at Sb deposits, where it is present in ores as simple sulfides

The most common antimony ore mineral is stibnite (Sb2 S3 ), but more than 100 other minerals also contain antimony. The presence of antimony in surface waters and groundwaters results primarily from rock weathering, soil runoff, and anthropogenic sources.
Antimony, a metallic element belonging to the nitrogen group (Group 15 [Va] of the periodic table). Antimony exists in many allotropic forms. It is a lustrous silvery bluish white solid that is very brittle and has a flaky texture. It occurs chiefly as the gray sulfide mineral stibnite.
Antimony is chalcophile, occurring with sulfur and the heavy metals, lead, copper, and silver. Over a hundred minerals of antimony are found in nature. Stibnite (Sb2S3) is the predominant ore mineral of antimony. The most important use of antimony metal is as a hardener in lead for storage batteries. The metal also finds applications in solders ...
Orogenic antimony-gold deposits contribute significantly to the global antimony resource base. China's orogenic antimony-gold deposits are primarily in southern Tibet. Investigations indicate that antimony combines and …
Composition: Consists of a single antimony atom. Bond Type: Antimony typically forms covalent bonds, leveraging its five valence electrons for bonding. Molecular Structure: Appears as a lustrous gray metalloid in its solid state.
produced stibnite ore is low, the gangue minerals in the ore composition should be removed by an ore enrichment process to produce a concentrate with high antimony content. Such ores are usually up- ... Antimony ore used in this study was taken from a region called Turhal located in the central and inner regions of Northern Anatolia (Fig. 1 ...
Composition: Antimony, often with small amounts of arsenic, iron, silver, and sulfur: Variable Formula (Sb,As) ; (Sb,As,Fe,Ag,S) Color: Tin-white, with a very light blue tinge. Oxidizes gray to dark gray, and the blue tinge is indiscernible when oxidized. Streak: Black: Hardness: 3 - 4: Crystal System: Hexagonal: Crystal Forms and Aggregates
Stibnite is a mineral composed of antimony sulfide (Sb2S3). It has a distinctive silvery-gray to lead-gray color and is known for its unique crystal structure. Here are some of its chemical, physical, and optical properties: Chemical Properties: 1. Chemical Formula:Sb2S3 2. Chemical Composition: Stibnite is composed of two …
Antimony is chalcophile, occurring with sulfur and the heavy metals, lead, copper, and silver. Over a hundred minerals of antimony are found in nature. Stibnite (Sb 2 S 3 ) is the predominant ore mineral of antimony.
Based on data on the composition of ore-bearing hydrothermal solutions and parameters of ore-forming processes at various antimony and antimony-bearing deposits, which were obtained in studies of fluid inclusions in ore minerals, we investigated the behavior of Sb(III) in the system Sb-Cl-H 2 S-H 2 O describing the formation of these deposits.

Broadly, the ore deposits within the gold-antimony polymetallic metallogenic belt in southern Tibet are predominantly influenced by the near EW-trending shear zone and the near SN strike-slip structure, with the ore bodies primarily located at the junction of these two structures (Zhai et al., 2014, Sun et al., 2016).
Stibnite is a sulfide minerals with chemical composition is antimony sulfide (Sb2S3). The principal ore of antimony. Lead-gray to silvery gray in color, it often develops a black, iridescent tarnish on exposure to light. It normally occurs as elongated, prismatic crystals that may be bent or twisted.

the occurrence of antimony mineralization at Yangla. However, the formation mechanism and genetic type of the antimony mineralization and whether it has a genetic rela-tionship with the Cu–Pb–Zn mineralization is still unclear. The samples from these new Sb ore bodies allowed the conducting of a trace element composition study of stibnite,

Antimony's periodic symbol comes from Jons Jakob Berzelius, who uses the abbreviation stibium. Antimony is stable at normal temperatures, but reacts with oxygen when heated. There are four antimony allotropes known. One of allotropes, metallic antimony, is stable, but the other three are metastable.

Stibnite was and continues to be the primary ore of antimony. Stibnite forms some of the most outstanding natural crystals that exist, in way of sharpness, luster, and size. It can form in groups of huge metallic luster ed crystals that are elegantly crafted and exceptionally shiny.
Abstract The article discusses the features of the composition, age, and genesis of gold–antimony mineralization of the East Sayan based on the example of the largest Tumannoe ore occurrence. It is shown that objects of this type are rare in the considered region. In the course of studies, it was found that stibnite, pyrite, and arsenopyrite predominate in ores; Bi …
