WHAT DOES CHLORITIZATION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Chlorite group

The chlorites are a group of phyllosilicate minerals. Chlorites can be described by the following four endmembers based on their chemistry via substitution of the following four elements in the silicate lattice; Mg, Fe, Ni, and Mn. ▪ Clinochlore: O108 ▪ Chamosite: O108 ▪ Nimite: O108 ▪ Pennantite: 64O108 In addition, zinc, lithium, and calcium species are known. The great range in composition results in considerable variation in physical, optical, and X-ray properties. Similarly, the range of chemical composition allows chlorite group minerals to exist over a wide range of temperature and pressure conditions. For this reason chlorite minerals are ubiquitous minerals within low and medium temperature metamorphic rocks, some igneous rocks, hydrothermal rocks and deeply buried sediments. The name chlorite is from the Greek chloros, meaning "green", in reference to its color.

Definition of chloritization in the English dictionary
