선모자연농원(대표 양승덕)은 지난 2006년 3월 10일 우리 시대에 맞는 친환경 생산물을 이용해 무항생제, 항산화제로 소비자에게 깨끗하고 신선한 계란을 공급하고자 3년간의 지속적인 연구 끝에 흑운모와 녹차를 함유한 유정란의 품질인증을 받았고, 현재 특허등록을 위해 출원한 상태이다.(출원번호 40-2006-0012500). 양승덕 사장은 흑운모가 황토와 맥반석보다 약 3배 이상 원적외선 방사율(94%)이 높으며 게르마늄 함유량이 36ppm에 이르는 생명의 돌로서 예전부터 흑운모석을 약돌이라 부른 것에 착안하여 산란계에도 흑운모 분말을 배합한 사료를 급여하였다. 본고는 웰빙시대에 걸 맞는 흑운모, 녹차의 기능과 이를 이용해 국내에서 어렵게 생산한 "흑운모 · 녹차유정란"의 특성을 살려 생산하는 현장을 취재하였다.

회장암에 함유된 흑운모의 풍화작용을 고령토에 함유된 캐올리나이트의 기원과 관련하여 연구하였다. 흑운모는 사장석이나 각섬석 등 다른 모암광물에 비하여 빠른속도로 풍화되어 고령토화 초기에 흑운모/버미큘라이트 혼합층광물, 버미큘라이트로 변질된다. 버미큘라이트는 계속하여 캐올리나이트로 변질되어 최종적으로 원 흑운모 입자에 비하여 크게 팽창된 캐올리나이트의 가상을 고령토 내에 형성한다. 변질 중인 흑운모에서 방출된 K와 Ti는 각각 일라이트와 아나타제로 침전되며 일라이트는 다시 캐올리나이트로 변질된다. 흑운모가 캐올리나이트의 유일한 모물질이라고 할 수 없으나 풍화과정에서 상당산 양의 캐올리나이트의 생성을 유도하여 고령토내 캐올리나이트 함량 증가에 크게 기여하는 것으로 보인다.

An experiment for uranium sorption onto fresh and weathered biotites was performed. After centrifugation, concentrations of uranium in the supernatants were analyzed using ICP-MS, and biotite samples were investigated using XRD and SEM. With powdered biotites (<3 mm in size), we have conducted uranium sorption experiments about fresh and weathered biotites to obtain uranium sorption amounts in various pH conditions. The uranium sorption was not high at a low pH (e.g., pH 3), but increased with increasing pH. There were lower uranium sorption by the weathered biotites than by the fresh ones, and the difference was much larger at higher pH (e.g., pH 11). The lower sorption values of uranium by the weathered biotites may be caused by a change of mineral surfaces and a chemical behavior of surrounding dissolved elements. It seems that the uranium-mineral interaction has been diminished, especially, in the weathered biotite by a destruction and dissolution of preferential sorption sites on the mineral surfaces and by the colloidal formation from dissolved elements.

Potassium (K) released from weathering of biotite in soils has been recognized as one of major K-sources for plant growth. Sand size biotite in a soil-saprolite-parent rock profile developed under temperate climate was studied in terms of morphological, mineralogical, and chemical changes according to depth employing petrographic and electron microscopes. X-ray diffraction, and electron microprobe. Biotite showed discoloring from black to goldish white and loss paleochroism with decreasing depth. Both edge and layer weatherings of biotite showed in this study. Hexagonal holes and cracks on (001) plane of weathered biotite grains were observed and their members increased with increasing weathering degree. Biotite was altered to kaolinite with or without intermidiate products such as hydrobiotite, degraded biotite, and illite. Average chemical composition of weathered biotite changed to that of katolinite with decreasing depth: increasing concentrations of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) and decreasing concentrations of potassium (K), iron (Fe), magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn), and taitanium (Ti).

Rb-Sr isotopic ages of oxidized biotite in the weathering profile of granodiorite, Yecheon area, were measured by thermal ionization mass spectrometry, and compared with their K-Ar ages. A decrease of Rb-Sr isotopic age is well correlated with iron oxidation, and consistent with K-Ar age. Octahedral and interlayer cations including Rb and Sr were partly released from the oxidizing biotite by excess positive charge from iron oxidation. Divalent /sup 87/Sr decayed from monovalent /sup 87/Rb was more easily released from biotite, resulting in the reduction of Rb-Sr isotopic age. Weathered biotite is not suitable for the age dating of parent rocks, but behaviour of radiogenic isotopes provides useful information on the geochemical and structural changes of biotite during weathering.

The Precambrian Hongjesa granite is lithologically zoned from biotite granite in central part to biotite-muscovite granite towards the margin. The X_{Fe}$ (=Fe/(Fe+Mg)) value and the aluminum saturation index of biotite systematically vary as a function of mineral assemblage, and are positively related with those of bulk rock. This relationship as well as the lithological zoning are attributed to the fractional crystallization of the Hongjesa granitic magma. The trace element data corroborate that biotite-muscovite granite is more fractionated than biotite granite. The evolution of the Hongjesa granite is elucidated by using the AFM liquidus topology, where A=$Al_2O_3-CaO-Na_2O-K_2O$; F=FeO+MnO; and M=MgO. At an early magmatic stage where biotite is the only ferromagnesian mineral to crystallize, the X_{Fe}$ value and the alumina content of granitic magma continuously increase.. Muscovite subsequently crystallizes with biotite along the biotitemuscovite cotectic curve where biotite-muscovite granite forms. Local enrichments in Mn and B further crystallize garnet and tourmaline, respectively. The unique zonal pattern characterized by the occurrence of the evolved biotite-muscovite granite at the margin may be accounted for by the passive stoping during the emplacement of the Hongjesa granite. This emplacement may have occurred in continental collision environment, according to the tectonic discrimination diagram using major element chemistry.

Biotite and its weathering Products in the weathering Profile of Andong granite were examined using X-ray diffraction, chemical analysis, and electron microscopy. Major weathering product of biotite was oxidized biotite, which is decomposed into kaolinite in the upper part. Discrete vermiculite or hydrobiotite was not detected although minor vermiculite (5%) was randomly interstratified with oxidized biotite. Excess positive charge induced by iron oxidation was balanced by release of Fe (16%) and Mg (12%) from octahedral site and K (13%) from interlayer site. After slight chemical and structural modification induced by iron oxidation, oxidized biotite persists through the weathering profiles with partial decomposition in the upper part of the profile. Formation environments and dissolution experiments of oxidized biotite highly resistant to weathering are required to understand the elemental behavior in the surface environments on the biotite-bearing bedrocks.

X-ray diffaction and chemical analysis were used for mineralogical characteristics of weathering grade of granite and biotite gneiss. Granite is composed mainly of quartz, albite, and minor K-feldspar and biotite gneiss is biotite, quartz, albite. Illite and kaolinite increased in granite, and vermiculite and halloysite in biotite gneiss as increasing weathering process. The percentages of $Al{2}O_{3}$ increase but that of CaO, $Na_{2}O,\;K_{2}O$ decrease as the weathering process. $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ different from granite and biotite gneiss.

Weathering of biotite shows a biotite-vermiculite-kaolinite sequence at the early stage, but presents biotite-kaolinite sequence without a significant intermediate phase (vermiculite) at the late stage from the weathering profile of the granitic gneiss. Secondary 1:1 phyllosilicates are kaolinite and halloysite which show different weathering textures originated by a different formation mechanism. Kaolinitization began from the edges of biotite and propagated toward the interior of grain along a multilayered front. $10 \AA$ layers of biotite are interleaving with $7\AA$ layers of kaolinite and c-axis of two phases is consistent. Kaolinite pseudomorph of biotite is isovolumetric, compared to the biotite boundary and includes many band-like porosities parallel to the cleavage. Platy kaolinite formed by 1:1 layer fur layer replacement of biotite. Halloysitization proceeded outward from the grain edges which were foliated as fine flakes and bent at the right angle for cleavage Halloysites were extensively fanning out and greatly increased the volume of grain. This indicated that halloysite tubes were formed by epitaxial overgrowth on the surface of biotite with import of Si and Al from the external solution by dissolution of plagioclase. These halloysites have abnormally high Fe content ( ~11%).
