Minerals Quotations

Some days, I know beauty techniques like it's my job, and other days I can't do my makeup for the life of me. So I find it easiest to just put on mineral veil and a little mascara and call it a day. I use Physician's Formula and Bare Minerals every day of my life.

It proved easier to buy the farm to get the mineral rights than to buy the coal rights alone.

I love ocean life. I'm fascinated that so much of it remains unexplored by human beings. Diluted seawater consisted of nearly the same concentration of elements and minerals as blood plasma. They've got the same amount of sodium, too.

Even as technology becomes increasingly critical to the way we live our lives, power our world and defend our shores, the United States has allowed the production of minerals crucial in the creation of these advanced products to slide.

Electronics companies are purchasing the minerals that come out of the Eastern Congo, and they are illicit; they're dirty.

Too often, governments are quick to use excessive force and even pervert the course of justice to keep oil and gas flowing, forests logged, wild rivers dammed and minerals extracted. As the Global Witness study reveals, citizens are often killed, too - especially if they're poor and indigenous.

Interior Secretary Ken Salazar turned out to be all hat and no cattle with his sorry oversight of the Minerals Management Service.

We found mineral grains that are considered very high-temperature minerals -- they normally form under extremely high temperature conditions. And yet they were collected in a comet, the Siberia of the solar system.

Minerals such as magnesium, bromine, iodine, fluorine, zinc and copper would be recovered from the salt water before a slurry is returned to the ocean.

If we find evidence that (those) minerals are there, there must have been a time in Mars' early history when there was standing water on Mars' surface.

I think it's a good thing. Any diet that restricts healthful foods in vitamins and minerals is not good in the short term.

We'll be able to say some things almost instantly. One of the big questions is do comets contain minerals that contain water, called hydrated silicates and under an electron microscope you can identify those practically instantly.

Whole-grain foods contain fiber, vitamins, minerals and other things that are removed during refining. We recommend that whole grain intake should start from a very young age to develop a healthy lifestyle. Cardiovascular changes and diabetes risk are starting to occur earlier now, especially due to the obesity epidemic.

We predicted we would only find a significant percentage of clay minerals in sediments toward the end of the Precambrian, when complex life arose, while earlier sediments would have less clay content. This test is easier than it sounds. Because clay minerals make up the bulk of sediment deposited today, we are saying that it should be largely absent in ancient rocks. And this is just what one finds.

This study shows us that as we continue to push growth in managed forests, we will have to add not just major nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorous, but also minerals such as calcium and potassium to ensure sustainable production,

This strong performance reflects higher export prices across almost 80 per cent of all minerals and energy commodities exported, along with increased export volumes for over two thirds.

Export values for minerals just look too low to us. It may be underestimated or just that the full effect from higher contract prices hasn't fed through yet, though it's been a few months now.

Fish is a good source of so many other important nutrients, like vitamins B6, A, D, and K, and the minerals zinc, selenium, and copper.

Scientifically, that's great, because there's been lots of discussion of whether comets contain minerals or glass.

People are using vitamins and minerals no longer as an adjunct to diet, but as medicines in their own right.

People don't realize the richness of the gems and minerals out of Canada. The Baffin Island sapphires are very unusual for their size and clarity.

As China's industrial output soars and more than a billion people participate in a transformation of their living standards, the demand for the metals and minerals we produce has expanded rapidly.

Australia is a resource-rich nation. We have been good at exploiting our minerals base and agricultural sector for exports.

They are very small rocks, but they are rocks nonetheless. And what do these minerals tell us about how these grains form? We think that much of the Earth's water and organics ... perhaps came from comets. So what will these samples tell us about basically where our atoms and molecules came from and then how they were delivered to Earth and in what amount?

The interesting thing is we are finding these high-temperature minerals in materials from the coldest place in the solar system.

The fall (in exports) may have something to do with supply problems and getting the minerals to the ports for exports. And demand from Europe seems to be a bit weaker.

I'm particularly excited about the sulfate results...because so much of the material we are looking at is in sulfur rich caves where gypsum and other sulfate minerals play a huge role in the biology and the subsequent preservation of traces of that biology.

In the coldest part of the solar system, we've found samples that have formed at extremely high temperatures. When these minerals formed, they were either red-hot or white-hot grains.

The clay minerals are acting essentially like kitty litter, absorbing organic molecules in the oceans. This is totally, absolutely new.

Every ailment, every sickness and every disease can be traced back to An organic trace mineral deficiency

I am the very model of a modern major general
