The apatite-bearing carbonate rocks at Eppawala, Sri Lanka occur as massive, discontinuous bodies in a Precambrian, high-grade metamorphic terrain, which weather to form economically important phosphate deposits. The ore bodies at Eppawala contain ≤42% P2O5, and citric acid solubility of different components varies from 4 to 6%. The parent rocks are …
The main source of this deposit may be weathered and eroded hard rocks, transported through Mahaweli River, which is the longest river (335 km) in Sri Lanka covering about one sixth of the island.
The current study examined potential heavy mineral placer deposits in Sri Lanka (Fig. 1). Heavy mineral placers are found to occur mainly …

High quality kaolin is mined at Meetiyagoda in southwestern Sri Lanka. The deposit occurs in a swampy area within the low-lying coastal region having a tropical wet climate. The kaolin clay beds form
Burton and O'Nions (1990) obtained U-Pb ilmenite-whole rock isochron ages of 1094 ± 8 and 1095 ± 4 Ma, respectively, on two ... Therefore, similar to the graphite deposits in Sri Lanka, the mantle is the most likely carbon source for graphite deposits in southern India. Unfortunately, no fluid inclusion data are available from these deposits.
The Red earth (RE) deposit that exists along the northwest coastal belt of Sri Lanka is a significant geological formation. Fine-grained sand coated with iron-aluminum oxides brings the ...
