MGX Minerals Inc > Mg vs Mgo vs MgCO3

Mg vs Mgo vs MgCO3

Metal = Mg
Mgo = metal oxide
MgCO3 = Metal Oxide Carbonate

LOI = Life of Ignition

If MgCO3 is converted  to just - MgO
The carbon is lost.

Heating / Calining the MgCO3 forces the CO2 = OUT.
Hence the loss of = Ignition.
A loss of punch power and weight occurs.
Reducing the overall weight of the MgO.


So....
how should one look at the MgCO3 ?
Should one keep the CO2 with in ?

What if certain acids were used while keeping the CO2 with in the mgo 
could it actually created a vantage when reacting with other acids ?

Meaning - the co2 left in might create / force specific bonding whereas, attraction vs competition
results in, another usable product.

Example, mgco3 + oxalate = new product
new product + h20 = could be bold enough to mess with the hydrogen + oxygen with in water
to form different molecules - like some papers suggest - H3 - while others don't show this.
Some show a peroxide value or dueterium.
. I don't know what ot beleive now. ( ugh )

While on the flip side - taking the co2 out and leaving only. mgo, and then introdcuing an acid,
might only create common bonds.

MAGNESIUM OXALATE -  seems ot have 2 formulas online
 Chemical formula: MgC2O4; MgC2O4•2H2O
See what imean...
So many different interpretations.

Which makes it very confusing as ot which is what.
The added ( 2H2O ) = Deuterium

Here's a paper on
ethylene oxide + Magnesium Oxide ( balanced equation )
C2H4 + 4MgO  2CO2 + 4Mg + 2H2


2H2 = hydrogen peroxide

Yet.. .further down page - the equation renders 
= tritium.


Have a look - scan the page - look for - reactants + products
( tritium - shows itself )


https://en.intl.chemicalaid.com/tools/equationbalancer.php?equation=C2H4+%2B+MgO+%3D+CO2+%2B+Mg+%2B+H2

Seems ethylene oxide could be a good reactant.

While on the other hand - oxalate acids are too...
What are oxalate acids ?
Derived from carbons.

Captured carbon dioxide converts into oxalic acid to
process rare earth elements

What i do know is...
if this lil junioor doesn't kick it in gear.. there maybe yet another junior jumping into the Mg space.
I did some research on, RLG - found some decent Mg in thier ores that they overlooked.
Performed a drill core data search and it resulted in,

the majority of 1.5 m dril lintercepts were only used to compile thier gold resource.
All other intercept over 1.5m were excluded.
excluded intercepts still had golsd values 4gand under.
excluded dril lintercepts contained 5% - &% Mgo.

I concluded that - if the outside intercepts over 1.5 meters were evaluated for thier 4g and under gold and included the magnesium values - such could be an entirely secondary resource.
Open pit modle might support a positive economics.

If outside intercepts with 4g and under and magnesiumwere in an ( EQ ) value, and if an ore sorted
wer incorporated -  it might be a quick path to, a gold/Mg concentrate. Ifa good ore sorter worked,
not hard to concentrate the ores by a multiple of, 3x, 4,x 5,x  could hit that sweet mark of, 30% or beyond.

I'm no longer in that stock.
They took too long to do anything.

Fastforward... Seems, Frank Giustra has taken a grip of, RLG.
Hence - this lil junor better kick it in - high gear.
Another ( stealth ) mg junior could be in the works.


What irks me in the markets...?
I at one time told a lil junior to measure thier resources.
Pointed out - they had all the data in the 43 101 to provide an inferred measurment.
They didn't.
How ( f'kg ) amazing it is... how another can do it, and that stock now runs $1 - $1.5
all becoause of a small task of measuring the resource.
Any a-ss can do that... but, another did it.

Makes me wonder about, 2% royalties, and preferred shares.
Hmmm.


On another note - i expect the markets to treat this stock the same.
Will they ?


Cheers....
