What properties of iron bearing minerals on the seafloor support the theory of seafloor spreading?
iron bearing minerals can record Earth's magnetic field direction. when Earth's magnetic field reverses, newly formed iron bearing minerals will record the magnetic reversal. magnetic reversals show new rock being formed at mid-ocean ridges. This helped explain how the crust could move

How the ages of the rocks on the ocean floor support the theory of seafloor spreading?

What happen to iron bearing minerals that are heated at curie point?
Iron-bearing minerals lose their magnetic properties when heated to the Curie point, which is around 770°C for iron. At this temperature, the atomic magnetic moments become disordered and the material becomes non-magnetic. Once cooled back down below the Curie point, the mineral may regain its magnetic properties.
What is produced when iron-bearing silicate minerals in the desert landscape oxidize?
Iron-bearing silicate minerals in the desert landscape oxidize when exposed to air and moisture, producing iron oxide minerals such as hematite and limonite. These minerals give the soil a red or orange color commonly seen in desert regions.
What type of weathering is oxidation?
Oxidation is a type of chemical weathering where minerals in rocks react with oxygen to form new minerals. It typically leads to the rusting of iron-bearing minerals in rocks.
What is a synonym for a metal bearing mineral?
The word for unrefined rock or raw minerals is "ore." There is no single-word synonym.

What are bearing alloys?

What are the top three copper bearing minerals?
bronze
Where do you get minerals from?
From their ore's, ie from their individual mineral bearing rocks.
What is the meaning of tale-bearing?
Tale-bearing means spreading gossip or secrets that might cause harm or trouble. It is considered a sin of the tongue and is a serious sin in Judaism.
How is Coltan concentrated?
Coltan is typically concentrated through a process called gravity separation, where the ore is crushed and then subjected to gravity-based methods to separate the heavier coltan minerals from the lighter gangue minerals. Another common method is magnetic separation, where coltan-bearing minerals are separated based on their magnetic properties. These processes help to increase the concentration of coltan in the ore for further processing.

What does red soil have in it?
Iron bearing minerals which oxidise to red/brown Iron Oxides (rusts).

Oxidation is a type of chemical weathering where minerals in rocks react with oxygen to form new minerals. It typically leads to the rusting of iron-bearing minerals in rocks.
What is a water-bearing layer of rock sand and gravel?
I have never heard a specific noun for it but but the adjectives hydrated, saturated, or water-bearing could apply. Many minerals will adsorb water directly into their molecular crystalline structure, they are called "hydrated" minerals. If the water is simply soaked into pores in the rock like wet sand then we say it is saturated or water bearing.
