V = m ρ = 78.246g 19.32g/cm3 = 4.050 cm3 (5) (5) V = m ρ = 78.246 g 19.32 g / c m 3 = 4.050 cm 3. This is the volume of water displaced. Now we need the mass of water displaced, which is the bouyancy, or the difference in mineral mass in air and water. If we multiply both sides of Eq. 1.1 by V, we obtain.

The abundance of these mineralized faults, which acted as potential pathways for the flow of the ore-forming fluids, explains the high tonnage of the mineral resource observed in the West part (90% by volume of fluorite deposit).
