These microorganisms actually gain energy by breaking down minerals into their constituent elements.

These electronegative elements are strongly associated with metal-bearing minerals, where they have formed water-insoluble compounds with the metals in the ores.

These are all modern, and there was no noticeable exploitation of metals or minerals prior to the modern era.

These are less general, and apply to specific minerals.

These two groups of minerals are subgrouped by octahedral occupation ; specifically, kaolinite and pyrophyllite are dioctahedral whereas serpentine and talc trioctahedral.

These asbestos minerals form long, thin, flexible, and strong fibres, which are electrical insulators, chemically inert and heat-resistant ; as such, they have several applications, especially in construction materials.

These minerals tend to be soft, weak, brittle, and water-soluble.

These two minerals species are members of eponymous mineral groups: the calcite group includes carbonates with the general formula XCO < sub > 3 </ sub >, and the dolomite group constitutes minerals with general formula XY ( CO < sub > 3 </ sub >)< sub > 2 </ sub >.

These particles, or chondrules, are composed mostly of silicate minerals that appear to have been melted while they were free-floating objects in space.

These temperatures are experimentally determined in the lab by artificially resetting sample minerals using a high-temperature furnace.

These minerals are mostly found in China, the USA, Brazil, India, Sri Lanka and Australia ; China is by far the world leader in samarium mining and production.

These cementing materials may be either silicate minerals or non-silicate minerals, such as calcite.

These minerals make up the framework components of the sandstones.

These minerals are primarily carbonates, sulfides, or oxides of the metal, mixed with other components such as silica and alumina.

These are known as greenstone belts, because low-grade metamorphism of basalt produces chlorite, actinolite, epidote and other green minerals.

These released elements form authigenic quartz, chert, calcite, dolomite, ankerite, hematite and albite, all trace to minor ( except quartz ) minerals found in shales and other mudrocks.

These are the three most abundant components of sandstones ; all other minerals are considered accessories and not used in the naming of the rock, regardless of abundance.

These minerals, known as index minerals, include sillimanite, kyanite, staurolite, andalusite, and some garnet.

These minerals formed during the crystallization of igneous rocks.

These are both silica minerals, but they differ in that quartz has a trigonal crystal structure, while moganite is monoclinic.

These include iron, nickel, cobalt, some alloys of rare earth metals, and some naturally occurring minerals such as lodestone.

These minerals are usually essential plant nutrients and are referred to as agrominerals.

These positions carry such titles as:

These areas, by virtue of their abrupt density of pattern, stated the literal surface with such new and superior force that the resulting contrast drove the simulated printing into a depth from which it could be rescued -- and set to shuttling again -- only by conventional perspective ; ;

These are still in wide use today, particularly in semi-rigid formulations, for such applications as cores for sandwich-type structural panels, foamed-in-place insulation, automotive safety padding, arm rests, etc..

These opportunities are to be found in certain cities in such crafts as auto mechanics, carpentry, drafting, electrical work, tool-and-die work, and sheet-metal work.

These axioms are sufficient for many proofs in elementary mathematical analysis, and are consistent with some principles, such as the Lebesgue measurability of all sets of reals, that are disprovable from the full axiom of choice.

These Articles ( though no longer binding ) have had an influence on the ethos of the Communion, an ethos reinforced by their interpretation and expansion by such influential early theologians as Richard Hooker, Lancelot Andrewes, John Cosin, and others.

These provinces may take the form of national churches ( such as in Canada, Uganda, or Japan ) or a collection of nations ( such as the West Indies, Central Africa, or Southeast Asia ).

These Lambeth Conferences have been held roughly every 10 years since 1878 ( the second such conference ) and remain the most visible coming-together of the whole Communion.

These scripts formed the basis of the historical scripts of Central Asia, such as the Sogdian and Mongolian alphabets.

These defects are created during plastic deformation, such as hammering or bending, and are permanent unless the metal is recrystallized.

These frequencies can be used to study geological phenomena such as earthquakes.

These snails cling solidly with their broad muscular foot to rocky surfaces at sublittoral depths, although some species such as Haliotis cracherodii used to be common in the intertidal zone.

These ambers are formed from resins with a sesquiterpenoid base, such as cadinene.

These historians point towards the unstable oligarchies established by Lysander in the former Athenian Empire and the failures of Spartan leaders ( such as Pausanias and Kleombrotos ) for the eventually suppression of Spartan power.

: These sold at such prices in the markets of all the cities!

These displayed his prolific habits and literally encyclopedic knowledge of topics such as logic, theology, botany, geography, astronomy, astrology, mineralogy, chemistry, zoology, physiology, phrenology and others ; all of which were the result of logic and observation.

These operations are compounding ( or the addition of one idea onto another, such as a horn on a horse to create a unicorn ); transposing ( or the substitution of one part of a thing with the part from another, such as with the body of a man upon a horse to make a centaur ); augmenting ( as with the case of a giant, whose size has been augmented ); and diminishing ( as with Lilliputians, whose size has been diminished ).

These antigens should, under normal conditions, not be the target of the immune system, but, due to mainly genetic and environmental factors, the normal immunological tolerance for such an antigen has been lost in these patients.

These measures plus the improvement in Israel's relations with Egypt and Jordan, the renunciation of terrorism by the Palestine Liberation Organization, the on-going peace talks between the PLO and Israel, the collapse of the communist states in East Europe, which reduced the scope for sanctuaries for terrorists, and the more cautious attitude of countries such as Libya and Syria after the U. S. declared them State-sponsors of international terrorism, the collapse of ideological terrorist groups such as the Red Army Faction and the tightening of civil aviation security measures by all countries have arrested and reversed the steep upward movement of hijackings.

These were initially custom devices, but it was soon common to include such support in a LocalTalk-to-Ethernet bridge.

These drugs ( such as rofecoxib, celecoxib and etoricoxib ) are equally effective analgesics when compared with NSAIDs, but cause less gastrointestinal hemorrhage in particular.

These edicts often pertained to matters such as the regulation of the public markets, or what we might call " economic regulation ".
