Abstract

![CDATA[Naturally occurring nitrate mineral deposits are found in a number of different environments, but most are found in arid climates or in areas in which evaporation rates are high. This is because nitrate salts are generally highly soluble in water; exceptions are the metastable nitrate-bearing members of the hydrotalcite groups and certain basic copper salts.]]
