In this work, we investigated the M 3 (AsO 4) 2⋅ 8H 2 O end members annabergite (M is Ni),
erythrite (M is Co), and hörnesite (M is Mg) and their solid solutions. Acid-solution …

In the early mediaeval cemetery in Bodzia (Poland) a unique large collection of 85 small red
beads in a rich burial of an adult woman were found. Analysis of the chemical composition …

The adsorption of biosurfactants and polysaccharides changes the surface properties of
solid particles, which is important for controlling the release of arsenic compounds from the …

Abstract Stalactites containing 0.13–294 g kg− 1 As were collected from abandoned adits of
the former Mikulov and Plavno mines (NW Czech Republic), and were then characterized …

Synthetic samples of krautite, Mn [AsO3 (OH)]⋅ H2O, koritnigite, Zn [AsO3 (OH)]⋅ H2O and
cobaltkoritnigite, Co [AsO3 (OH)]⋅ H2O, were used for calorimetric experiments. For krautite …

A wide compositional range, covering about 90% of an expected erythrite-köttigite
substitutional solid solution with extreme compositions of (Co2. 84Mg0. 14Zn0. 02)(AsO4) 2 …

The vivianite group consists of minerals with the general chemical formula M3 (XO4) 2·
8H2O, where M is a divalent metal cation (M= Co, Fe, Mg, Ni, Zn) and XO4 is an arsenate or …
