Effects of co‐calcination with alkali hydroxide on pure clay minerals (kaolinite, montmorillonite) and typical impure minerals (quartz, feldspar) are presented. Co‐calcining montmorillonite and quartz with sodium hydroxide improves their reactivity. Co‐calcining kaolinite with sodium hydroxide reduces its reactivity.

Abstract Enrichment patterns of the redox‐ and bio‐sensitive trace elements U, V, Cr, and Ni in margin sediments are essential for environmental reconstructions. However, their sedimentary accumulation pathways are not fully understood. While the accumulation of toxic trace elements like Cd, Hg, Pb, and Zn has been relatively well studied in fish ...

Turbidity in alkali feldspars from granitic pegmatites
Alkali feldspars from pegmatite of Brazil and Spain have microscopic to submicroscopic inclusions giving a >turbid> and >clouded> appearance. Inclusions are isotropic, irregular and spatially associated with patch/vein lamellae in network and/Or isolated masses. Inclusions have no detectable lines in XRD and microprobe analyses show strong variability:

Abstract One promising potential site for extracting supercritical geothermal fluids is the Krafla volcano, Iceland, into which a borehole was drilled very close to a shallow rhyolite magma chamber at about 2 km depth. Besides the technical challenge to drill in this setting, the extreme temperature conditions of T > 900°C close to the magma body may ...

Microspherules formed by lightning strikes
Abstract Natural microspherules are formed by high‐temperature processes and are present throughout the geologic record to the present day. We report the discovery of large numbers of microspherules recovered from a rock pavement in the Pilbara region, Western Australia.
