Here are described new minerals and mineral varieties for Romania in the Crucea Uranium Sulfide deposit
Snowflakes and silicate mushes are two examples of the terrestrial regimes that may be characterized as partially solidified systems. Change of phase in clouds and magma chambers as well as in the earth's mantle and core introduces a... more
The petrography and mineralogy form an integral part of Petrological studies of any area. The petrographical and mineralogical data is very useful in mapping and correlating the flow sequences and in establishing the flow stratigraphy.... more
The roméite-group [1,2] is part of the pyrochlore supergroup and comprises some cubic oxides of A2-mB2X6-wY1-n formula in which Sb 5+ predominates in the B-site. Indices m, w and n indicate vacancies in A, X and Y crystallographic sites,... more
Rare minerals, chloriane amphiboles and chloriane biotites were discovered in rocks of Palaeoproterozoic (Jatulian) traps of Karelia: in gabbro-dolerites of layered Kojkarsko-Svjatnavolok sill and in coarse-grained albitic (“karjalitic”)... more
Copyright 2009, Society of Petroleum Engineers This paper was prepared for presentation at the 2009 SPE/EAGE Reservoir Characterization and Simulation Conference held in Abu Dhabi, UAE, 1921 October 2009. This paper was selected for... more
As questões que envolvem a conservação da diversidade de seres vivos no mundo vem sendo abordados frequentemente em todos os níveis de organização social, entre os temas está a extinção das espécies, como consequência das agressões ao... more

The Florida phosphate deposits in Four Corners and Hardee County mines are composed mainly of phosphate minerals and quartz in addition to subordinate proportions of feldspars, dolomite, calcite, gypsum, kaolinite, attapulgite and... more
Campo durante tres semanas en la Zona Chiguará - El Anís.
We present new data about speleothems of gypsum formerly analyzed by DRX. These speleothems are located in a cave in carbonatic sandstone of the Jaizkibel Formation (of Eocene age). The sample has been analyzed by an energy dispersion... more
The origin of chemical and mineralogical heterogeneity in tens-of-microns wide layers and domains in enderbite-hosted couple-of-centimeters wide pseudotachylite vein is examined based on the results of BSE and X-ray element imaging, and... more
There are a few trade names and expressions that are not exactly accurate if we look at them in a very strict way. However, written or verbal tradition have given them a wide visibility and usage among both professionals and the general... more
Rift-related, late Eocene (≈ 60 Ma) alkaline-carbonatitec intrusions cover ≈ 1200 km2 south of the town of Chhota Udaipur, and form a subprovince within the alkaline magmatism that accompanies the tholeiitic Deccan Traps. They were... more
The kinetics and mechanism of hydrothermal formation of zeolite A from natural kaolinites have been studied using as starting materials two international kaolinite standards (KGa-1 and KGa-2 from Georgia, USA) exhibiting a different... more
The nature and geodynamic setting of Inner Makran ophiolites (SE Iran) are controversial and are the focus of a growing debate. The Fannuj-Maskutan ophiolite complex (central Inner Makran) is made up of lherzolites, harzburgites, layered... more
Vymazalováite, Pd3Bi2S2 is a new platinum-group mineral discovered in the Komsomolsky mine of the Talnakh deposit, Noril’sk district, Russia. It forms small (from a few μm to 20–35 µm) inclusions or euhedral grains in intergrowths of... more
The kinetics of the dehydroxylation of chrysotile was followed in situ at high temperature using real-time conventional and synchrotron powder diffraction (XRPD). This is the first time kinetics parameters have been calculated for the... more
Crystal morphology and chemical compositions of arsenopyrite and pyrite at the Nam Quang and Bo Va deposits in the Song Hien basin (Northeast Vietnam) are studied in detail. Arsenopyrite often forms elongated crystals. Their chemical... more
La France a un riche passé minier pour l'antimoine. pierre-Christian Guiollard montre comment les mines du territoire métropolitain sont passées, du XVIe siècle à 1991, de la prospérité à l'oubli.
... of the SMC. The granulite-facies rocks of the SMC are bounded by two major faults (Figs. 1 and 3), the Harry Creek Shear Zone to the South (Allen and Black 1979) and the Woo-langa Fault to the East. The SMC rock assemblage ...
A NEW DISCOVERY, CALLED TODAY "THE ICE FLOW THEORY."
This paper presents the preliminary findings of on going study intended to develop a cool house by introducing roofing materials with higher Solar Reflectance Index (SRI). SRI is a composed measure that accounts for surface's solar... more
Thick ferromanganese (Fe-Mn) crusts from four Cretaceous seamounts (The Paps, Tropic, Echo and Drago) at the southern Canary Island Seamount Province (CISP) in the northeastern tropical Atlantic were recovered along the flanks and summits... more
El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo caracterizar los minerales metálicos presentes en las condritas ordinarias relacionados con el resto de componentes minerales, y evaluar el uso de la microtomografía de rayos X como una herramienta... more
