Related Services

Related services, in the world of minerals and metallurgy are categorized into two more subcategories such as mineral and metals agents and mining and metallurgy projects. All industrial operations in metallurgy industries and production units are comprised of various manufacturing and production processes that include casting, forging, flow forming, rolling, extrusion, sintering, metalworking, machining, and fabrication. There are several types of minerals which are classified as industrial and non-industrial minerals because of their wide usages during manufacturing and industrial operations. A complete list of industrial minerals includes zeolites, wollastonite, vermiculite, talc, sulfur, staurolite, sodium sulfate, sodium bicarbonate, soda ash, slate, silica sand/tripoli, salt, quartz, pumice, potash, phosphate, perlite, olivine, mica, marble, limestone/dolomite, kyanite/sillimanite/andalusite, kaolin, kaolin, gypsum, graphite, granite, gem minerals, garnet, fuller's earth, fluorspar, feldspar and nepheline, dimension stone, diatomite, diamond, corundum, clays, carbonatites, brines, borates, bentonite, barite, ball clays, asphalt, natural, asbestos, and alunite and aggregates. Mineralogy, in the modern world, is further divided into subsections and categories that include physical mineralogy (including crystal structure, crystal habit, twinning, cleavage, luster, color, streak, hardness and specific gravity), chemical mineralogy, biomineralogy, optical mineralogy, crystal structure, formation environments, descriptive mineralogy (including native elements, sulfides, oxides and hydroxides, halides, carbonates, nitrates and borates, sulfates, chromates, molybdates and tungstates, phosphates, arsenates and vanadates, silicates and organic minerals), and determinative mineralogy.
