This study examines the compositions of the ore and the ore formation solutions, conditions of formation, and sources of Be mineralization using the Aunikskoye F-Be deposit, which is an integral part of the Western Transbaikal beryllium-bearing provinces, as a representative example. Further, the main factors responsible for the formation of beryllium mineralization were evaluated. The ore deposits are presented by the feldsparic–fluorspar–phenacite–bertrandite metasomatites formed in the carboniferous limestones during their metasomatic alternation with hydrothermal solutions by introducing F, Be, and other associated elements. The formation of early phenacite–fluorspar association occurred in high-fluorite СО2-containing solutions of elevated alkalinity with a salinity of ~10.5%–12% wt eq. NaCl in a temperature range of ~ 370–260 °С at pressures ranging from 1873 to 1248 bar. More recent fluorite and bertrandite deposits were formed by solutions with a salinity of 6.4%–7.7% wt eq. NaCl in a temperature range of ~156 °C–110 °C and a pressure range of 639–427 bar. The examination of the isotopic signature of the ore association minerals confirmed the apocarbonate nature of the main ore deposit and allowed the determination of the magmatogene nature of the ore-forming paleothermal springs, which are the source of subalkaline leucogranites. The primary factors that influenced the formation of the F-Be ore included the reduction of the F activity in solutions because of the binding of Ca and F in fluorite as well as because of the decrease in temperature during the ore deposition process. The elevated alkalinity of the ore-formation solutions resulted in the low solubility of the Be complexes, which caused a relatively low Be content in the ore and a relatively small amount of mineralization in the deposit.

A numerical procedure has successfully predicted accurate values of thermodynamic properties in seven cubic equations of state (EOS) in predicting thermodynamic properties of nine ozone-safe refrigerants both in super and sub-critical regions. Refrigerants include R22, R32, R123, R124, R125, R134a, R141b, R143, and R152a and equations of state, considered here, are Ihm-Song-Mason (ISM), Peng-Robinson (PR) [2], Redlich-Kwong (RK), Soave-Redlikh-Kwong (SRK), Modified Redlickh-Kwong (MRK), Nasrifar-Moshfeghian (NM), and TCC were shown in this paper. In general, the results are in favor of the preference of TCC and PR EOS over other remaining EOS’s in predicting gas densities of all aforementioned refrigerants in both super and sub critical regions. Typically, PR and SRK are in good agreement with those obtained from recent correlations and speed of sound measurements. Therefore, these two EOS stand over other EOS both in sub and super critical regions. All EOS follow two-parameter principle of corresponding states at T/Tc higher than 8 and lower than 1 except NM EOS. In the temperature range 1<T/Tc<8, PR and SRK still follow above mentioned principle. The same trend has been observed for other refrigerants.
