New Results From the Pre‐Pottery Neolithic Site of Al Uyaynah, Tabuk, in Northwestern Saudi Arabia
ABSTRACT Al Uyaynah is a low sandstone mound on an alluvial plain, long known for its extensive surface remains of stone‐built circular and rectangular structures. Following test excavations in 2012, more detailed excavation was undertaken in 2016 within one of the largest rectangular stone structures.

Study on the Explosion Mechanism of Low-Concentration Gas and Coal Dust
In coal mines, the mixture of coal dust and gas is more ignitable than gas alone, posing a high explosion risk to workers. Using the explosion tube, this study examines the explosion propagation characteristics and flame temperature of low-concentration ...

Mountain‐top spherules: Criteria to identify natural and synthetic particles
Abstract Natural microspherules are important tracers of geologic and environmental processes in modern and ancient deposits. However, anthropogenic contamination can dilute natural collections by releasing synthetic microspherules into the environment.

Modelling barriers for coal dust suppression [PDF]
Airborne dust originating from the transport and storage of raw coal has detrimental effects on the environment. Warkworth Mining is seeking to reduce the dust emissions caused by the dumping of raw coal at their facility in Singleton, NSW. The suggested

ABSTRACT Features considered indicative of hyperpycnites and intrabasinal turbidites overlap. Outcrop study presented here suggests that the Westward Ho! Formation forms an 800 m high deepwater‐slope system dominated by hyperpycnites. Taking this unit, and other successions where hyperpycnites have been described, as having been deposited solely from ...

Development and Characterization of Mesoporous Activated Carbon From Cassia fistula Waste
ABSTRACT Waste derived from the Cassia fistula tree, including pods, leaves and bark, was used as a starting material for the synthesis of mesoporous activated carbon (M‐AC) through a single‐step chemical activation process. Characterization of the samples was confirmed by using SEM, XRD, BET, FTIR and EDX analysis.
