Zusammenfassung:Knowledge of a rock's composition allows for inferences regarding several properties, ranging from its physical characteristics to its solubility. This study aimed to evaluate the use of different extractants to solubilize the K present in rocks as a potential source of nutrients and the effects of extractant contact time and temperature on rock solubilization. Samples of two rocks and a mineral concentrated from a granitic rock were treated with ammonium dihydrogen phosphate (N[H.sub.4]([H.sub.2]P[O.sub.4])), calcium dihydrogen phosphate (Ca[([H.sub.2]P[O.sub.4]).sub.2]), sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and water (control). Sample-extractant treatments were performed using a water bath shaker at temperatures of 25 and 50°C for periods of 3, 7, 10, 20, and 30 days. The amounts of K extracted from rocks using the extractants were in the following order: N[H.sub.4][H.sub.2]P[O.sub.4]>Ca[(HP[O.sub.4]).sub.2]>NaOH>water. The sequence of K release (ppm) based on the rocks studied was as follows: nepheline syenite>green banded argillite> concentrated biotite. Increasing the extractant contact time and temperature enhanced the solubilized K content. Keywords: minerals, soluble K, fertilizers, powdered rock. O conhecimento da mineralogia de rochas permite conclusoes sobre propriedades que vao desde suas caracteristicas fisicas ate a facilidade de solubilizacao. O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar o uso de diferentes extratores na solubilizacao do potassio (K) presente em rochas potenciais fontes de nutrientes e os efeitos do tempo de contato dos extratores e temperatura na solubilizacao das rochas. Amostras de rochas e mineral concentrado de rocha granitica foram tratadas com di-hidrogenofosfato de amonio (N[H.sub.4]([H.sub.2]P[O.sub.4])), di-hidrogenofosfato de calcio (Ca[([H.sub.2]P[O.sub.4]).sub.2]), hidroxido de sodio (NaOH) e agua (controle). Os tratamentos rochas-extratores foram submetidos ao banho de agitacao em agua a temperaturas de 25 e 50°C durante periodos de 3, 7, 10, 20, e 30 dias. As quantidades de K extraidos de rochas usando os extratores foram na seguinte ordem: N[H.sub.4][H.sub.2]P[O.sub.4]> Ca[([H.sub.2]P[O.sub.4]).sub.2]> NaOH> agua. A sequencia de solubilizacao de potassio (ppm) baseado nas rochas estudadas foi a seguinte: nefelina sienito> argilito verde bandado > concentrado de biotita. O tempo de contato dos extratores e temperatura aumentaram o conteudo de K solubilizado. Palavras-chave: minerais, K soluvel, fertilizantes, po de rocha.
