Guys...the play ain't gold...it's PGMs. LINK to ORXX JV guys:homepages.go.com Semi-Opals Exist in Arizona- I found some. the Salt Basin therory helps to explain Flux PROBLEMS, refer to Bob Barefoot- July 1993 OPALS:ozemail.com.au Silica-calcined kaolin clay products are used as functional extenders in paints, coatings and rubber- Kaolin Clayu-s-silica.com u-s-silica.com SECTION 2 - COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Hazardous Ingredient: Crystalline silica (quartz), typically 99.2% to 99.9% Chemical Formula: SiO2 CAS#: 14808-60-7 OSHA PEL: Exposure to airborne crystalline silica shall not exceed an 8-hour time-weighted average limit as stated in 29 CFR §1910.1000 Table Z-1-A, Air Contaminants, specifically: 10 mg/m3 SiO2+2 ACGIH TLV: Crystalline Silica (quartz) TLV-TWA = 0.1 mg/m3 Respirable Crystalline Silica (quartz) See Threshold Limit Value and Biological Exposure Indices for American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (latest edition). Other Recommended Limits: National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). Recommended standard maximum permissible concentration=0.05 mg/m3 (respirable free silica) as determined by a full-shift sample up to 10-hour working day, 40-hour work week. See NIOSH Criteria for a Recommended Standard Occupational Exposure to Crystalline Silica. CAUTION: Crystalline silica exists in several forms, the most common of which is quartz. If crystalline silica (quartz) is heated to more than 870°C it can change to a form of crystalline silica known as trydimite, and if crystalline silica (quartz) is heated to more than 1470°C, it can change to a form of crystalline silica known as cristobalite. Crystalline silica as trydimite and cristobalite are more fibrogenic than crystalline silica as quartz. The OSHA PEL for crystalline silica as trydimite and cristobalite is one-half the PEL for crystalline silica (quartz); the ACGIH TLV for crystalline silica as trydimite and cristobalite is one-half the TLV for crystalline silica as quartz.
