Hi there
The company responded with the mineral contents but not the amounts of each. I have emailed for further clarification. Remin rockdust is made from ground basalt and while basalt can vary depending on the location of the quarry, I include a typical analysis. I would stress that this analysis did not come from the Remin company and is intended to give an idea of typical basalt mineral content only.
46-51% Silicon dioxide
11-14% Aluminum oxide
11-14% Iron oxide
.2% Manganese oxide
3-6% Magnesium oxide
6-12% Calcium oxide
3-4% Sodium oxide
.8-1% Potassium oxide
.9-2% Titanium dioxide
.1-.3 Phosphorus pentoxide
20-320 ppm Boron
200-350 ppm Vanadium
45-275 ppm Chromium
28-50 ppm Cobalt
15-50 ppm Nickel
25-68 ppm Copper
83-95 ppm Zinc
5-2 ppm Molybdenum
