Natural Fluorite from Órgiva Deposit (Spain). A Study of Its Pozzolanic and Mechanical Properties

This work presents the results of the partial substitution of Portland cement (PC) by natural fluorite (NF) and calcined fluorite (CF) in mortars, at 10%, 25% and 40%. To meet these objectives, a sample of fluorite was initially studied by XRD, SEM and Raman Spectroscopy (RS). A chemical quality ana...
