Reserves of Phonolite and Taconite
The reserves of Phonolite and Taconite are geographically distributed all over the world. Phonolite and Taconite reserves play an important role in a country’s economic growth.

The ages of these felsic rocks are around 2.5 and 3.8 billion years. Learn about the countries with Phonolite and Taconite reserves here.
