Kinetics of barite reduction from refractory barite-sulphide ore

Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, 2016
Refractory sulphide–barite ore was reduced with carbon in order to release lead, zinc, and copper sulphide from barite-pyrite base. Mineralogical investigations showed that due to the complex structural-textural relationships of lead, copper and zinc minerals with gangue minerals, it is not possible to enrich the ore using the conventional methods of ...

Evidence From Microscopy and U–Pb Geochronology as a Clue to the Influence of the Cretaceous Magmatism in the Diagenesis of Pre‐Salt Carbonate Reservoirs in the Santos Basin (Brazil)

Geological Journal, Volume 61, Issue 7, Page 1976-2001, July 2026.
Carbonates from Santos Basin revealed U–Pb ages correlated with basalt ages (A), suggesting that they were formed during magmatic events. These events placed hot CO2 in the reservoir, which, when mixed with carbonate‐rich cold water (B), led to thermal convection, enabling the formation of the U contained in the carbonates.

Microemulsion‐Based Drilling Fluids Incorporating Seashell Residue Powder: A Sustainable Approach to Fluid Loss Control

Journal of Surfactants and Detergents, Volume 29, Issue 4, Page 537-547, July 2026.
Two microemulsion‐based drilling fluids incorporating SSRP were formulated using pine oil, the nonionic surfactant Alkonat L100W, and a glycerol/water solution. The results provide valuable insights into how surfactant‐assisted microemulsion systems can be engineered to enhance the performance and eco‐efficiency of drilling fluids.

Microbially Mediated Intracellular Barite Mineralization: Evidence From an Early Ediacaran Microfossil in the Doushantuo Formation of South China

Geophysical Research Letters
Barite serves as a key proxy for reconstructing paleo‐oceanic productivity and chemistry in modern and ancient marine sediments. Although contemporary barite precipitation involves biological mediation, the mechanisms responsible for ancient barite ...

Borehole Waters From Hole U1601C (Atlantis Massif) Provide Constraints for a Deep‐Sourced Formation Water That (Could) Feed the Lost City Hydrothermal Field

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Hole U1601C, drilled during International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 399, reached a depth of 1,268 m below the seafloor (mbsf) in the Atlantis Massif (30°N, 42°W). This borehole represents only one of six boreholes that extends more than 700 m into oceanic rock, penetrating predominantly ultramafic lithologies, mostly composed ...
