  • This study analyzed the effect on weight and average daily gain, carcass grade, and blood characteristics and immunity in case of dietary addition of pegmatite to Hanwoo steers. Relative to Hanwoo steers, initial body weight was $257.3{\pm}11.74kg$ (8-months old after birth). Forty-eight Hanwoo steers were fed for 24 months using random arrangement (4 treatment plots${\times}$4 heads${\times}$3 repeat). The treatment plot (498.75~500.82 kg) had higher weight during the early fattening stage compared with that of the control plot (474.37 kg) (p<0.05). Regarding total cholesterol of the blood, the value was similar to one during initiation of testing, but the value increased gradually based on the progress of fattening. In addition, the triglyceride was considerably low in T2~T3 plots with high addition of pegmatite during the late fattening stage compared with other treatment plots (p<0.05). This study revealed a tendency in the IgG content that represented immunity as the addition of pegmatite became higher (p>0.05). This study found that the treatment plot (441.55~452.10 kg) had higher carcass weight compared with the control plot (436.30 kg). However, this study revealed that the treatment plot (2.30~2.55 points) had higher carcass quantity grade compared with the control plot (2.11 points). This study found that the control plot (3.55 points) had higher carcass quality grade compared with the treatment plot (2.67~3.09 points) (p>0.05). With studies combined, it was determined that dietary addition of pegmatite to the feed as clay minerals in fattening Hanwoo steers would improve feed intake, body weight gain and carcass quantity grade.

  • The Daeyou pegmatite is located at the central westerm part of the peninsula. Geology of the mine area consists mainy of pre-Combrian granite gneiss and leucoratic gneiss which are intruded by Mesozoic granites. The pegmatite deposits occur within granite gneiss. Most of pegmatites contain quartz, perthite, microcline-perthite, microcline, sodic plagioclase and tourmaline as dominant minerals with accessory minerals of mica (muscovite, biotite, sericite)and pyrite. Tourmaline occurs as four types: 1) unaltered single crystals, 2) patially sericitized grains bordered by sericite assemblage, 3) tourmaline intergrown with feldspar and qurtz grains, and 4) tourmaline introduced veinlet/ On the basic of optical, X-ray diffraction and chemical analysis, the composition of tourmaline mostly falls on the schorl-elbaite join, in the composition of tourmaline mostly falls on the schorl-elbraite join, in the composition of schorl end member from 0 to about 50%. In spite of the different occurrences, chemical composition of tourmaline shows the limited ranges as follows: $SiO_{2}$ (34.53~35.01 wt.%), $Al_{2}O_{3}$ (33.58~34.26wt.%), FeO (13.73~14.17wt.%), $Na_{2}O$ (1.60~1.72wt.%), MgO (0.56~0.72wt.%), MnO (0.12~0.18wt.%), CaO (0.02~0.06wt.%), $K_{2}O$(0.02~0.03wt.%) $TiO_{2}$ (0.02~0.05wt.%) and $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ (0.02~0.03wt.%). K-Ar ages of the muscovite and sericite fall between 1010$\pm$15 and 1074$\pm$16Ma and between 161.56$\pm$3.09 and 161.67$\pm$Ma, respectivrly. This means that hydrothrmal alteration occurred during middle Jurassic, whereas the pegmatite was initally formed during the late proterozoic age.

  • This study has been carried out on the Pegmatites, Naedeogri Granites, Nonggeori Granites and Metasedimentary rocks in the middle area of Taebaeksan region to investigate the geochemical properties and possibility of productivity. Pegmatites are characterized by metamorphosed anatectic pegmatite and differentiated magmatic pegmatite, and are mixed type of rare-element pegmatite and mica-bearing pegmatite by the classification of Ginsburg(1979). The petrological type of the igneous rocks is thought to be calcalkali, subalkaline and peralumious. According to chemical variations against D. I., differentiation trends from Naedeogri and Nonggeori Granites through non-mineralized pegmatites to mineralized pegmatites are supposed. From the relationship between oxided and $SiO_2$, pegmatites and Nonggeori Granite have shown similar tendencies and bulk composition of pegmatites and similar to metasedimentary rocks near the intrusives. By judging the correlations of trace elements, it is elucidated that pegmatites adjacent to Naedeogri and Nonggeori Granites have been originated in magma differentiation from these granites and the others have been differentiated by remelting or partial melting from metasedimentary rocks. $Sp_5$, $Sp_8$, and $Sp_9$ pegmatites are considered as productive rocks, and $Sp_4$, $Sp_6$, $Sp_7$, $Sp_{10}$, $Sp_{11}$, and $Sp_{12}$ pegmatites and granites are supposed to have a weak productivity, in terms of element ratios related with Sn mineralizations. Tourmalines in productive pegmatites are formed under the circumstance of Li-poor granitoids and associated with pegmatites, and the others are seemed to be originated in metapelites and metapsammites which are not coexisting with an Al-saturating phase. Three types of chemical zoning are noticed in tourmalines: (1) apparently homogeneous compositional patterns, (2) a continuous core-to-rim zoning and, (3) a discontinuous core-to-rim zoning. From results of EPMA of tourmalines, Al, Mg and Ca increase closer to rim, while Fe decreases.

  • A NYF-type (Nb-Y-Zr-F) Khaldzan-Buregtei pegmatite containing rare-earth metals occurs within alkali granitoid complex of the western Mongolia. The pegmatites are considered as differentiates of syenites and alkali feldpar granitic rocks, showing that their rare-earth element concentrations are enriched tens times higher than those from the adjacent alkali granitic rocks. It is suggested that econemic aspects of the pegmatites can be controlled by the magnitude of lateral and vertical extensions and local grade variation of REE-bearing pegmatites.

  • This study was conducted to detennine the effect of dietary supplements of mineral powder (pegmatite) on the physico-chemical properties of M longissimuss for 24 Hanwoo steers. Each eight Hanwoo steers were randomly allotted to three treatments ; Control $(0\%)$, T1 (supplemented with pegmatite $2.0\%$ and vitamin A $0.2\%)$, T2 (supplemented with pegmatite $2.0\%$). Cooking loss was highest in control, while water holding capacity (WHC) was the highest in T2 (56.38) than the others. However, effect of the diets on meat color was not significantly different (p>0.05) Panel test scores of juiciness, tenderness and flavor of M longissinus were the highest for T1 $(4.6\~5.0)$ between the treatment group (p<0.05). The content of total fatty acid in M longissimus was the highest in T2 $(50.80\%)$ among the treatment group. Palmitic acid and oleic acid were siginificantly higher in T1 and control than those for the others(p<0.05). Unsaturated fatty acid (UFA) was highest in T2 $(58.57\%)$ than the others$(55.09\~55.64\%)$ (p<0.05).

  • Sphene from the McDonald pegmatite near Bancroft, Ontario, Canada was analyzed using EPMA. It contains 4.3 to 6.3 weight percent of Nb2O5 with an average formula Ca1.02(Ti0.62Al0.22Nb0.07Fe0.06Ta0.01)Si0.99(O4.85F0.16). Three types of subtitutions are possible; 1)2Ti4+=(Nb, Ta)5+ + (Al, Fe3+), 2) Ti + O = (Al, Fe3+) + (F, OH), and 3) 2Ti + O = Fe2+ + (Nb, Ta)5+ + (F, OH). T재 different schemes of substitutions for balancing the analysis are considered when the iron is either all ferric or all ferrous. Assuming stoichiometry fo Ca and Si, a general formula derived from the two different schemes is Ca(Ti0.64Al0.22Fe3+0.06-X {{{{Fe_{x}^{2+} }} Nb0.01)Sio4.80-XF0.16(OH)0.04+x.

  • Gravity exploration was conducted to determine the distribution of igneous complex related to lithium pegmatite in the Boam deposit of Uljin, Gyeongsangbuk-do, and the spatial relationship with the regional geology and ore bodies were studied. The gravity exploration result shows that the Boam deposit area is characterized by relatively low gravity anomaly that surrounds the deposit. The Boam deposit is located near the southwest-northeast directional boundary of gravity anomalies where igneous complex (granite gneiss) contacts with the Yuli and Wonnam groups in the southeast, Janggun limestone layers in the east-west direction, and Dongsugok metasedimentary rocks. While the western boundary in the southwest-northeast direction is relatively clear, there may also be unknown igneous complex that are not exposed on the surface at the eastern and southern boundaries because a relatively low gravity anomaly surrounds the deposit. The distribution characteristics of these hidden igneous complex will be used as useful data for predicting the distribution of the lithium pegmatite in the future.

  • In this study, we investigated the mineral geochemistry of the albite-spodumene pegmatite, associated exogreisen, and wall rock from the Boam Li deposit, Wangpiri, Uljin, Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea. The paragenesis of the Boam Li deposit consists of two stages; the magmatic and endogreisen stages. In the magmatic stage, pegmatite dikes mainly composed of spodumene, albite, quartz, and K-feldspar intruded into the Janggun limestone formation. In the following endogreisen stage, the secondary fine-grained albite along with muscovite, apatite, beryl, CGM(columbite group mineral), microlite, and cassiterite were precipitated and partly replaced the magmatic stage minerals. Exogreisen composed of tourmaline, quartz, and muscovite develops along the contact between the pegmatite dike and wall rock. The Cs contents of beryl and muscovite and Ta/(Nb+Ta) ratio of CGM are higher in the endogreisen stage than the magmatic stage, suggesting the involvement of the more evolved melts in the greisenization than in the magmatic stage. Florine-rich and Cl-poor apatite infer that the parental magma is likely derived from metasedimentary rock (S-type granite). P2O5 contents of albite in the endogreisen stage are below the detection limit of EDS while those of albite in the magmatic stage are 0.28 wt.% on average. The lower P2O5 contents of the former albite can be attributed to apatite and microlite precipitation during the endogreisen stage. Calcium introduced from the adjacent Janggun formation may have induced apatite crystallization. The interaction between the pegmatite and Janggun limestone is consistent with the gradual increase in Ca and other divalent cations and decrease in Al from the core to the rim of tourmaline in the exogreisen.

  • Tin mineralizations in South Korea have been found only in the Ulchin and the Sangdong areas. The Wangpiri and the Yuchang Sn pegmatites appear to be in close spatial and genetical relation to the Wangpiri granitoid in the Ulchin area, and the Soonkyeong Sn pegmatite be in close association with the Nonggeori granites in the Sangdong area from geochemical viewpoint. The electron-microprobe analysis of muscovite, biotite, tourmaline and cassiterite from the granitoids and pegmatites in the Ulchin and the Sangdong areas has revealed a distinct differences of geochemical compositions. The Wangpiri and the Yuchang Sn pegmatites show an enrichment of MnO and a depletion of $TiO_2$, FeO and MgO in comparison with the Soonkyeong Sn pegmatite. This result coincides with the geochemical compositions of granitoid rocks in these areas. Enrichment of MnO and depletion of $TiO_2$ FeO and MgO are characteristic in muscovite, biotite and tourmaline of pegmatites compared with those of granitoids. These geochemical differences of muscovite, biotite and tourmaline between granitoids and pegmatites in these areas implies that pegmatites are more fractionated than granitoids.

  • Partially sericitized tourmaline from a pegmatite, Black Hills, South Dakota, U.S.A., was investigated using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). Muscovite occurs as the only alteration product of tourmaline, and it is developed extensively as narrow veinlets along the {110} and {100} cleavage directions of tourmaline, indicating that a cleavage-controlled alteration mechanism was dominant. Muscovite was characterized mainly as two-layer polytypes with minor stacking disorder, but tourmaline is almost free of structural defects. HRTEM images of tourmaline-muscovite interfaces revealed that the interfaces between two minerals are composed of well-defined {110} and {100} boundaries of tourmaline. The (001) of muscovite is in general parallel to the c-axis of tourmaline, but tourmaline and replacing muscovite do not show specific crystallographic orientation relationship; muscovite consists of numerous 100-1000$\AA$ thick subparallel packets, and the angles between the (001) of muscovite and (110) of tourmaline is highly variable. Al/Si ratios of both minerals suggest that tourmaline to muscovite alteration by late magnetic fluids has been facilitated by their similar Al/Si ratio in the incipient alteration stage, in that the hydration reaction with preservation of Al and Si would require only addition of K+ and H2O. Aluminous minerals other than muscovite were not characterized as the alteration products of tourmaline, indicating that tourmaline reacted directly to muscovite; the tourmaline alteration apparently occurred by the presence of residual fluids in which K+ is available and silica was not undersaturated.
