Magnesium Humate

Magnesium Humate

Humic acid is a kind of organic matter formed and accumulated from animal and plant remains, mainly plant remains, through the decomposition and transformation of microorganisms and a series of geochemical processes. It’s an amazing amount, trillions of tons. Rivers, lakes, seas, soils, coal mines, and most of the earth’s surface have traces of it.

Because of its widespread existence, it has a great impact on the earth, involving carbon cycle, mineral migration and accumulation, soil fertility, ecological balance and so on. The total amount of humic acid in soil is the largest, but the average content is less than 1%. The total amount of humic acid in brackish water is not small, but the concentration is lower.

The most promising humic acid resources are some low calorific value coal, such as peat, lignite and weathered coal. Among them, humic acid content is 10-80%. China’s coal reserves are very rich. According to the data, there are 5 billion tons of peat and 126.5 billion tons of lignite. There is no statistical data on weathered coal. In this sense, the production and application of humic acid is also an aspect of coal chemical industry.
