Latest News and Developments:
Fluorspar, also known as fluorite, is a naturally occurring mineral composed primarily of calcium fluoride (CaF₂). It typically forms in a wide range of colors, including purple, green, and clear, depending on the presence of impurities. Fluorspar is known for its vitreous luster and perfect cleavage, making it relatively easy to split into cubic shapes. It has a Mohs hardness of 4, indicating moderate softness.
This mineral is widely used as a flux in the steelmaking process, aiding in the removal of impurities from molten metal. Additionally, it serves as a primary source of fluorine for the production of hydrofluoric acid, which is essential in the manufacture of various chemicals, refrigerants, and high-performance materials. The advantages of fluorspar include its versatility in industrial applications, cost-effectiveness, and role in enhancing the quality and efficiency of metallurgical processes.
