摘要: Abstract The composition of pyrochlore from the calcite carbonatite and its associated laterite at Bingo, Zaire was determined compared with nearby geologically-similar Lueshe. Large compositional variations exist in Bingo which relate both to primary magmatic zonation and, more commonly, a secondary alteration process. Altered is rich Ba Si. At Lueshe an identical trend observed, but subordinate. Pyrochlore bariopyrochlore, whereas predominant variety kalipyrochlore.
