The mineral barite is a heavy white sulphate of barium, frequently called "barytes" or "heavy spar." ❋ Unknown (1915)

And they did not mine barytes much here until the 20th century. ❋ Unknown (2008)

In Saturday's issue of The Times David Aaronovitch wrote: I am as captivated by the abandoned cottages and workings of the 18th-century barytes miners beside the Shropshire Stiperstones as I am by the 2,000-year-old white tombs of Turkish Lycia. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Isola said the focus will be on seven minerals: coal, bitumen, limestone, iron ore, barytes, gold and lead/zinc, selected for their importance to Nigeria's economy and their availability in amounts sufficient to sustain mining operations for several years. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Again, it was admitted that German barytes was better ground than English. ❋ Unknown (N/A)

The only difficulties I see in applying this process at once to the cane juice, are the large quantity of barytes required, the expense of re-burning it and the entire change in works that would be necessary before it could be introduced. ❋ P. L. Simmonds (N/A)

Many sulphates are important minerals, prominent among these being gypsum (calcium sulphate) and barytes ❋ William McPherson (N/A)

To show you the degree of economy practised in such establishments in France, I may mention that the washings of the saccharate of barytes are sold to the makers of potash and soda, who make a profit by boiling them down to obtain what salts they contain. ❋ P. L. Simmonds (N/A)

By adding chloride of barium solution the sulphuric acid is bound to the barytes and sulphate of baryta separates as white precipitate. ❋ Various (N/A)

There are distinct cleavages parallel to the faces of the prism (110) and the basal plane (001), but these are not so well developed as in the isomorphous minerals barytes and celestite. ❋ Various (N/A)

He accordingly proposed a double injection, first by muriate of barytes, and, secondly, by sulphate of copper, forced through by the Boucherie process, and it is presumed that the ties of 1870, in experiment No. 2, which showed favorable results when examined in 1875, were prepared by that process. ❋ Various (N/A)

Yet an extensive literature on barytes and barytes mining had been published by the Germans, showing exactly how German barytes was ground. ❋ Unknown (N/A)
