I don't now, I don't know - when I was explaining my pet project about faked food supplements to different people, it was easier with geologists, because I did not have to translate name of the minerals that I found: periclase, brushite, brucite, kieserite, etc.

This particular #supplement contains physical mixture of taurine and brucite, aka magnesium hydroxide.
I wrote to the manufacturer and to the seller, we will see what happens (but my guess is on "nothing").

From wiki lol:
Brucite was first described in 1824 by François Sulpice Beudant and named for the discoverer, American mineralogist Archibald Bruce (1777–1818)
Nailed it lol

Today's ROTD ⚒️ 🧪 is Brucite, the mineral form of magnesium hydroxide.
Yellow brucite from Pakistan comes from mountains & can form gorgeous spherical shapes. Brucite’s low hardness, perfect cleavage, and weak bonding makes it fragile. You have to be gentle handling it. Even a coin could scratch it.

It’s ‘failed shot Saturday’!
Here’s some brucite: a gorgeous yellow colour, backlit to show the crystallisation details, but the framing’s a mess and it’s generally rather dull. That’s when you realise how far you still have to go.

Whatcha collecting? Fluorapatite from Yates or Laurentide? Phlogopite from Laurentide? Amethyst & blue quartz from Cantley? Molybdenite or brucite from the Wakefield / Highway 5 road cut? Blue kalkite from Wakefield? Hmm, I'm betting it's the latter ;)

Canada believes in Climate Change and isn’t afraid to fight it.
Canada Nickel estimates brucite in the waste rock at its planned Crawford Nickel mine near Timmins, Ont., could capture up to 54 million tonnes of carbon dioxide instead of making it.

I wish I could convey how much effort and failure has gone into being able to replicate these experiments successfully
(That tiny, straight white line is the experiment) -- it's been a good week already 🥲

Port: Using CHN analysis, there was a drastic change in carbon abundance in brucite sample. When exposed to Venus conditions, it will dehydrate, releasing water, and forming magnesite.

I'm astonished by the naïveté of this line of work. Any consideration of scale-up to climate relevance immediately brings you to consider mining operations to supply of your feedstock, whether Brucite, Olivine, Wollastonite or other. But we mine valued ores, like copper or gold. Where's the value?

You can easily find alkaline deposits, but when considering cost and scale, limestone deposits are the only ones that matter. There are deposits of Brucite or Wollastonite, but the volumes aren't comparable.
The other issue to worry about is the purity of the limestone, expressed as CaCO3 content.
