Geological and geotechnical challenges on the Great Dyke of Zimbabwe and their impact on hardrock pillar design

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 506-538, June 2026.
The Great Dyke of Zimbabwe is notable for its rich platinum group metal deposits but poses significant geological and geotechnical challenges due to its complex rock types and structural features. Traditional pillar design methods are insufficient for addressing these complexities; the study suggests incorporating advanced techniques such as machine ...

Global Comparison of Aqueous Geochemistry and Dissolved H2/CH4 in Continental Low Temperature Serpentinization–Influenced Environments

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
Conceptual diagram of hydrological and geochemical processes within the Santa Elena Ophiolite, Costa Rica. It highlights watershed cross‐sections, soil genesis, hyperalkaline Type II waters (pH > 11.6) with calcite crust and trapped H2/CH4 gases, seepage into surface waters, storm‐impacted stream profiles, weathered vs.

Magmatic significance and hydrothermal alteration of layered chromitites from the Bracco Gabbro Complex, Ligurian Ophiolites, Italy

open access: yesBulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration
The Bracco chromitites are hosted in the Mesozoic Ligurian Ophiolites (Italy) and provide key insights into the magmatic and post-magmatic (i.e. metamorphic and hydrothermal) evolution ofgabbro-hosted chromitites in an oceanic mantle.

Dike Swarms in the Oceanic Lithosphere Beneath the Ontong Java Plateau

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract The Ontong Java Plateau (OJP) is believed to have formed through large‐scale Cretaceous volcanism, but the impact of the massive volcanism on the lithosphere remains largely unknown. In this study, the ascent process of the thermochemical plume and its impact on the physicochemical properties of the pre‐existing lithosphere were explored. High‐

Hydrothermal remobilization platinum group elements and their secondary minerals in chromitite deposits of the Eastern Sayan ophiolites (Russia) [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2019
Serpentinization is an important post-magmatic process in spreading and subducted zones. This process is the cause of the remobilization and redistribution of highly mobile elements, platinum group elements (PGE) and base metals. Secondary platinum group

Compositional variations of chromite and solid inclusions in ophiolitic chromitites from the southeastern Turkey: Implications for chromitite genesis

open access: yesOre Geology Reviews, 2014
Abstract Chromitites, associated with upper mantle peridotites of ophiolites from southeastern Turkey, are lenticular bodies or veinlets made up of massive, banded and disseminated chromite. Chromite shows a wide range of Cr# [Cr/(Cr + Al)] varying between 0.42 and 0.81, and Mg# [Mg/(Mg + Fe2 +)] of 0.45 to 0.75.

Magnetotellurics Point to Serpentinization as a Potential Source of Hydrogen in the Bulqizë Ophiolite

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Hydrogen was first detected in the Bulqizë ophiolite massif (Albania) in 1992, and its origin remains uncertain, with hypotheses ranging from active serpentinization to the release of trapped, fossil H2. To constrain the thickness of the ophiolite layer—a key parameter for evaluating hydrogen generation—we conducted a magnetotelluric survey ...

Bismuth-nickel mineralization in chromitites of Mariinskii deposit (Urals emerald mines)

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2018
The unusual Bi-Ni mineralization, represented by parkerite, millerite, bismutohauchecornite, bismuthinite, nickeline and, possibly nickel analogue of smythite (?), found in the metasomatically altered chromite rocks of the Mariinsky emerald-beryllium ...

Spectral Response of Few Important Textural Variants of Chromitite and its Potential in Estimating Relative Grades of Chromitite – A Case Study for Chromitite of Nuggihalli Schist Belt, India

open access: yesCurrent Science, 2018
We have collected, processed and analysed the reflectance spectra of representative chromitite samples of spot type, clot type and disseminated type textural variants to understand the diagnostic spectral features of each of these samples. We have found that the reflectance spectrum of each textural variant is distinct from the spectra of other ...
