Abstract

Abstract The two main particle size components of the dust samples were subjected to mineralogical analysis to identify the mineral constituents and determine their frequency percentage in each textural class; the fine sand (particle size between 0.125 and 0.063 mm) and Mud (less than 0.063 mm). The average percentage of minerals was mapped out for each season i.e. March, June, September and December 2010 showing the high and low mineral concentration in areas in Kuwait covering the mineral concentrations of Calcite, Carbonate, clay minerals, dolomite, feldspars, and quartz.
