Examples
Boron ores are mined to extract minerals such as colemanite, kernite, tincal, and ulexite.
These minerals are all in crystals, the sulphate of soda and tincal forming a solid mass, almost like stone in its hardness.
For 400 pounds of the tincal there must now be added one pound of quicklime diffused through two quarts of water.
