Separation of apatite ores and discrimination of oxidation zones using nuclear logging in the Khibiny apatite fields

Description

The problem of the correlation relationship between the P2O5 content and the apatite-nepheline ores density is solved. With a P2O5 content being the same as in apatite nepheline ores, the sphene-apatite ores are characterized by an excessive density Δrho(>=)0.11 g/c3. Oxidized ores can be defined by the value of the ratio eta=Na2O/K2O. Accuracy of Na2O determination by point measurements of NAK=N24 and K2O through a continuous spectrometric GK equals approximately 8%, whence it appears that the determination accuracy of eta is approximately 11-12%
