Hydromagnesite :: Hydromagnesite (n.) A hydrous carbonate of magnesia occurring in white, early, amorphous masses..

Glucinum :: Glucinum (n.) A rare metallic element, of a silver white color, and low specific gravity (2.1), resembling magnesium. It never occurs naturally in the free state, but is always combined, usually with silica or alumina, or both; as in the minerals phenacite, chrysoberyl, beryl or emerald, euclase, and danalite. It was named from its oxide glucina, which was known long before the element was isolated. Symbol Gl. Atomic weight 9.1. Called also beryllium..

Brucite :: Brucite (n.) A white, pearly mineral, occurring thin and foliated, like talc, and also fibrous; a native magnesium hydrate..

Bitter Spar :: Bitter spar () A common name of dolomite; -- so called because it contains magnesia, the soluble salts of which are bitter. See Dolomite..

Zinc :: Zinc (n.) An abundant element of the magnesium-cadmium group, extracted principally from the minerals zinc blende, smithsonite, calamine, and franklinite, as an easily fusible bluish white metal, which is malleable, especially when heated. It is not easily oxidized in moist air, and hence is used for sheeting, coating galvanized iron, etc. It is used in making brass, britannia, and other alloys, and is also largely consumed in electric batteries. Symbol Zn. Atomic weight 64.9..

Conite :: Conite (n.) A magnesian variety of dolomite.

Pyroxene :: Pyroxene (n.) A common mineral occurring in monoclinic crystals, with a prismatic angle of nearly 90¡, and also in massive forms which are often laminated. It varies in color from white to dark green and black, and includes many varieties differing in color and composition, as diopside, malacolite, salite, coccolite, augite, etc. They are all silicates of lime and magnesia with sometimes alumina and iron. Pyroxene is an essential constituent of many rocks, especially basic igneous rocks, as basa

Magnes :: Magnes (n.) Magnet.

Magnesian :: Magnesian (a.) Pertaining to, characterized by, or containing, magnesia or magnesium..

Cerolite :: Cerolite (n.) A hydrous silicate of magnesium, allied to serpentine, occurring in waxlike masses of a yellow or greenish color..

Epsomite :: Epsomite (n.) Native sulphate of magnesia or Epsom salt.

Wagnerite :: Wagnerite (n.) A fluophosphate of magnesia, occurring in yellowish crystals, and also in massive forms..

Nitromagnesite :: Nitromagnesite (n.) Nitrate of magnesium, a saline efflorescence closely resembling nitrate of calcium..

Carnallite :: Carnallite (n.) A hydrous chloride of potassium and magnesium, sometimes found associated with deposits of rock salt..

Chlorite :: Chlorite (n.) The name of a group of minerals, usually of a green color and micaceous to granular in structure. They are hydrous silicates of alumina, iron, and magnesia..

Polyhalite :: Polyhalite (n.) A mineral usually occurring in fibrous masses, of a brick-red color, being tinged with iron, and consisting chiefly of the sulphates of lime, magnesia, and soda..

Saline :: Saline (n.) A metallic salt; esp., a salt of potassium, sodium, lithium, or magnesium, used in medicine..

Clay :: Clay (n.) A soft earth, which is plastic, or may be molded with the hands, consisting of hydrous silicate of aluminium. It is the result of the wearing down and decomposition, in part, of rocks containing aluminous minerals, as granite. Lime, magnesia, oxide of iron, and other ingredients, are often present as impurities..

Sodium :: Sodium (n.) A common metallic element of the alkali group, in nature always occuring combined, as in common salt, in albite, etc. It is isolated as a soft, waxy, white, unstable metal, so readily oxidized that it combines violently with water, and to be preserved must be kept under petroleum or some similar liquid. Sodium is used combined in many salts, in the free state as a reducer, and as a means of obtaining other metals (as magnesium and aluminium) is an important commercial product. Symbol

Strychnia :: Struvite (n.) A crystalline mineral found in guano. It is a hydrous phosphate of magnesia and ammonia.
