No references found | Baddeleyite is useful because it incorporates large amounts of uranium into its crystal-structure, and because uranium naturally decays to lead. The U-Pb analyses of primary baddeleyite from the Nipissing diabase and vein-related secondary rutile have yielded ages of 2217. It was also announced at the same time that the Zirconium Sulphate Tetrahydrate (ZST) plant would cease operations in its current form on 31 May 2001 as the expected reduction in zirconia available to the baddeleyite plants is occurring earlier than anticipated and has rendered the ZST plant uneconomic. |
