A Microkrystite from the Australasian Tektite/Microtektite Strewn Field

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Microkrystites are glassy impact spherules. They contain primary crystallites carrying information on the physical and chemical conditions prevailing during vaporization, melting, and ejection in large impact cratering events. We report on the geochemistry and mineralogy down to nanometer scale of the first microkrystite (ODP1144A,14) from the

Deposition of Multicomponent Chromium Carbide Coatings Using a Non-Conventional Source of Chromium and Silicon with Micro-Additions of Boron [PDF]

Materials Research, 2017
The chromium carbide coatings are widely used in the mechanical industry due to its corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. In this work, we evaluated a new source of chromium and silicon with micro-additions of boron on the deposition of multi ...

Jewelled Byzantine and Medieval Reliquaries of the True Cross: Peridots and Other Gemstones in Material and Symbolic Perspective

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, Volume 57, Issue 10, Page 1727-1756, October 2026.
An interdisciplinary in situ study of jewelled reliquaries of the True Cross integrates gemmology and portable analytical techniques, revealing new evidence on the identification and symbolic role of peridots and other gemstones. ABSTRACT Jewelled crosses containing relics of the True Cross occupy a central position in the devotional, artistic and ...

A New Method of Potassium Chromate Production from Chromite and KOH-KNO3-H2O Binary Submolten Salt System

, 2009
A new method of chromate production by applying a new reaction system of KOH-KNO3-H2O (binary submolten salt system) is proposed and proved feasible. Under conditions of temperature 350 degrees C, KOH-to-chromite ore ratio 2:1, stirring speed 700 rpm ...

Quantitative Evaluation of Shock Metamorphism in Clinopyroxene Using In Situ X‐Ray Diffraction Measurement of Lattice Strain

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Shock metamorphism is a ubiquitous process in our solar system. Shock pressure can be related to the lattice strain (ε) of individual minerals within a shocked sample. The lattice strain can be quantified within intact samples by in situ micro‐X‐ray diffraction (μXRD) using the Williamson‐Hall method. The Williamson‐Hall lattice strain (W‐H ε)

Mixed‐Metal Promotion in a Manganese‐Molybdenum Oxynitride as Catalyst to Integrate C─C and C─N Coupling Reactions for the Direct Synthesis of Acetonitrile from Syngas and Ammonia

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 51, 11 September 2026.
Transition metal oxy/carbo‐nitrides show great promise as catalysts for sustainable processes. A Mn‐Mo mixed‐metal oxynitride attains remarkable performance for the direct synthesis of acetonitrile, an important commodity chemical, via sequential C─N and C─C coupling from syngas (C1) and ammonia (N1) feedstocks.

Chromite placer occurrences of the Volga-Ural basin – genesis, sources and industrial potential

Georesursy
Chromium is a strategic metal, but more than a half of Russia’s needs are met by imports, so new deposits of chromites, including unconventional placer deposits, are of industrial and scientific interest. Previous studies and current works of the authors

Beach Gold and Heavy Mineral Concentrates on Tiwai Spit Gravel Strand Plain, Southland, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 3, September 2026.
The Holocene Tiwai Spit on Foveaux Strait is a 12 km by 2 km gravel‐dominated strand plain, ∼10 m above present sea level. Gravel clasts are dominated by well‐rounded quartz cobbles, pebbles and granules derived from Otago Schist 200 km to the north in evolving river drainage systems during late Cenozoic.
