Friable itabirite with levels stronger siliceous.

Locally with specularite. Lenses of schists are founded.

Comments – This interval of friable itabirite with lenses of

schist are located closed of shear zone that is

characterized by quartz and specularite associated a

hydrothermal process. This process and mineralogy

(white mica) of schist are probable responsible for values

of alumina. The chemical formula is

KAL2Si3AlO10(OH,F)2 and the composition is 11.82%
