    Geochemical Characterization of Carbonate Rocks of the Uíge’s Municipality (Angola), for Cement Industry

    Abstract The Carbonate rocks from Angola were studied from a geological perspective and as mineral resources. However, the petrological and geochemical characteristics need to be analyzed and studied in order to evaluate their industrial qualities. The general purpose of this work is to analyze the geochemical suitability of the carbonate rocks in Uíge’s Municipality (Uíge province) to be used in the cement industry. To achieve this purpose, a methodology based on field survey and sampling was applied and laboratory tests were performed, namely petrographic and geochemical analyses. The results obtained showed that the carbonate rocks of the Uíge’s Municipality, are suitable for the cement industry, especially for the Portland and White cement.
