The Morphological Characteristics of Clay Minerals in a Tight Sandstone Reservoir by Atomic Force Microscopy

open access: yesYankuang ceshi
Clay minerals, as one of the main components of unconventional oil and gas reservoirs, have significant implications for the evaluation of unconventional oil and gas reservoirs in terms of their fine characterization of nano/sub-nano morphological ...

Geochemical Characteristics and Their Geological Significance of Zircon and Apatite From the Wunugetushan Porphyry Cu–Mo Deposit, Inner Mongolia, NE China

open access: yesActa Geologica Sinica - English Edition, EarlyView.
The key factors making the monzogranitic porphyry fertile for mineralization, including its high Cl, S, and H2O contents, high oxidation state, significant fluid exsolution, and multiple recharges of deep‐seated mafic magma, were all critical for the formation of the Wunugetushan porphyry Cu‐Mo deposit. ABSTRACT The Wunugetushan (Wushan) porphyry Cu–Mo

Soil wetting and drying processes influence stone artefact distribution in clay‐rich soils: A case study from Middle Gidley Island in Murujuga, northwest Western Australia

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.

Microbial reduction of chlorite and uranium followed by air oxidation

open access: yes, 2011
To evaluate the stability of biogenic nanoparticulate U(IV) in the presence of an Fe(II)-rich iron-bearing phyllosilicate, we examined the reduction of structural Fe(III) in chlorite CCa-2 and uranium(VI) by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, and the ...

Formation of corrensite, chlorite and chlorite-mica stacks by replacement of detrital biotite in low-grade pelitic rocks [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Transmission and scanning electron microscopy were utilized to investigate the nature and mechanisms of alteration of abundant detrital biotite of volcanic origin and progressive modification of phyllosilicate aggregates in a prograde sequence of pelitic

A Newly Discovered Tablet‐Making Facility in Nineveh: Insights From Scientific Analysis

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper addresses the question of tablet technology in the Neo‐Assyrian capital city of Nineveh. Recent excavations in the lower town of Nineveh by the Iraqi–Italian Archaeological Expedition uncovered an exceptional assemblage of more than 200 tablets from an elite residence that appears to have included a scriptorium.

Albite-chlorite and talc-chlorite deposits in metasedimantary and granitoid rocks of central Sardinia (Italy)

open access: yes, 2002
The albite and talc-chlorite deposits occurring in central-eastern Sardinia are associated with metasedimentary rocks with intrusions of Hercynian granitoids which contain abundant roof pendants of Palaeozoic metasedimentary rocks.

Regional retrograde alteration of sub-greenschist facies chlorite to smectite [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Dioctahedral smectite is present as a retrograde alteration product of chlorite in Permian-Triassic red slates of the Malaguide Complex in Sierra de Espuña (Betic Cordillera).

Unraveling the active site cover of coproheme decarboxylase from Listeria monocytogenes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
During heme biosynthesis in Gram‐positive bacteria, coproheme decarboxylase (ChdC) catalyzes the conversion of four‐propionate substrate coproheme to the two propionate product heme b. Its active site is universally covered by a flexible linking loop. This study identifies an important histidine residue, which stabilizes the loop in a ChdC homolog.
