19 results about "Polyhalite" patented technology

Polyhalite is an evaporite mineral, a hydrated sulfate of potassium, calcium and magnesium with formula: K₂Ca₂Mg(SO₄)₄·2H₂O. Polyhalite crystallizes in the triclinic system, although crystals are very rare. The normal habit is massive to fibrous. It is typically colorless, white to gray, although it may be brick red due to iron oxide inclusions. It has a Mohs hardness of 3.5 and a specific gravity of 2.8.

A method for deploying exploration well positions for polyhalite

The present invention provides a method for deploying exploration well positions for polyhalite, which mainly includes the following steps: 1) Using physical cores to clarify the logging response characteristics of the main lithologies; 2) Based on the obvious response characteristics, using the radioactive difference to measure the potassium content, determining the correlation between the potassium content and the total radioactivity, and constructing a mathematical model; 3) Using the preferably selected logging curves sensitive to polyhalite to construct a polyhalite characterization curve, taking the curve as the inversion target curve, using the frequency division attribute inversion method, and simultaneously adding the wave impedance inversion result as a constraint to carry out polyhalite prediction to obtain the distribution range of polyhalite; 4) Selecting polyhalite drilling well positions within the distribution range of polyhalite in step 3) above. The present invention can effectively improve the well position selection efficiency, improve the drilling success rate, achieve high-economic exploration, and at the same time can effectively eliminate the interference of other potassium-containing minerals such as mudstone, greatly improving the accuracy of inversion prediction.
