Characteristics of vernadite in manganese ores from Gangpur Group of rocks, Goriajhor Formation, Sundargarh district, Orissa, have been described. This terrestrial vernadite is distinguished from δ-MnO2 in marine manganese nodules by its well ordered crystallinity and thinner fibrils of submicron size. It appears to be chemically homogenous with the proposed formula: (Ba, K, Fe) MnO2.nH2O. This vernadite probably originated through solution, precipitation and redeposition under supergene conditions and later transformed into cryptomelane or romanechite.- Morpho-Chemistry of Hematite in Manganese-Rich formation of Gangpur Group, Orissa

The Precambrian manganese-Rich formation (Goriajhar Formation) Gangpur Group contains appreciable Fe, as reflected from the occurrence of hematite in different paragenesis. The first generation of hematite (Hm1) exhibits dissimilar micromorphology, contains Mn in solid solution (MnO: 1 to <4%)and may be termed as Manganoan-Hematite. The different morphological types (Hm1) recorded are: hexagonal plate, twinned idiomorph, suhhedral inclusion within quartz and braunite, blebs forming zone within spessartine garnet, crystal dusted with oriented intergrown ilmenite, haphazard platelets within Mn-aegirine, oriented grains forming alternate bands and fused grainns forming large porphyroblast. The hematite formed due to maartitisation is of second generation (Hm2) and the one that occurs as vein fillings, often traversing the other two types, is of third generation (Hm3). Both Hm2 and Hm3 are devoid of Mn content. The first generation hematite is of primary type. syngenetic with manganese minerals and developed at different stages of metamorphism. The hematite of other two generations is of hypogene origin, Hm2 being formed due to low-temperature oxidation, while Hm3 during solution and reprecipitation at meteoric condition.Keywords
