Characterization of some nonmetallic resources in Bolivia: an overview of their potentiality and their application in specialized formulations
Bolivia has several nonmetallic occurrences widespread in the country. Unfortunately, they are poorly studied and slightly characterized. In the present work, several nonmetallic occurrences located in La Paz, Oruro, Potosí and Santa Cruz were studied. The results of the chemical and mineralogical characterization of the materials will be presented, in order to approach their applicability in specialized industrial formulations. A preliminary test of the final products besides an overview of their potentiality will be exposed and a current view of the commercialization as well.
Palaeomagnetic stratigraphy of Pliocene continental deposits of the Bolivian Altiplano
Abstract Fluvio-lacustrine post-Miocene deposits of the Bolivian Altiplano have been sampled in 400 m of section in the La Paz and Avo Avo basins in order to provide a magnetostratigraphic scheme for chronostratigraphic interpretations. Stable characteristics components were isolated after stepwise AF or thermal demagnetizations. The directions of cleaned magnetization were compared to the normal and reverse dipole field directions at the site. The plot of the mean directions calculated for each stratigraphic level define successive magnetozones which can be identified on the standard geomagnetic polarity scale with the help of the K/Ar ages obtained on tuff layers. The deposition of the middle and upper part of the La Paz Formation covers the Gauss epoch. The Gauss/Matuyama (2.48 Ma) and the Gilbert/Gauss (3.4 Ma) limits are located in the top and the middle of the formation. The occurrence of the first glacial/interglacial oscillation can be placed in the early Matuyama (ca 2.2 Ma) in agreement with the oxygen isotopic record from the equatorial ocean.
