به خواندن ادامه دهیدThe formation process of karstic bauxite was complex. Its ore-forming materials were transported from various sources and deposited on carbonate rocks, and then formed bauxite through diagenesis (Bárdossy, 1982, Öztürk et al., 2002, Wang et al., 2012a). Ga in karstic bauxite was primarily enriched before diagenesis.
