MINERALOGY AND CHEMISTRY OF ASBESTOS FROM HOLENARASIPUR SCHIST BELT : MANGALAPUR AREA

Asbestos from the Mangalapur area of Holenarasipur Schist belt has been identified as anthophyllite contrary to the earlier report as tremolite. The serpentines in this area are 6-layer orthoantigorites and the chlorites are 14 Å, IIb polytypes of variable Si/Al ratios. The anthophyllite is derived...

Zusammenfassung:Asbestos from the Mangalapur area of Holenarasipur Schist belt has been identified as anthophyllite contrary to the earlier report as tremolite. The serpentines in this area are 6-layer orthoantigorites and the chlorites are 14 Å, IIb polytypes of variable Si/Al ratios. The anthophyllite is derived from the alteration of antigorite, chlorite and talc by the hydrothermal metamorphism of the ultrabasic intrusives.
