The mechanical resistance of saturated stones [PDF]
, 2010 This paper aims at investigating the effect of the presence of water on the mechanical resistance of stones. The presence of water, connected to the intrinsic properties of the stone (mineralogical composition, fabric, texture, etc.) and to the ...

Strain patterns, décollement and incipient sagducted greenstone terrains in the Archaean Dharwar craton (south India) [PDF]
, 1996 The Archaean Dharwar craton is characterized by two greenstone successions: the > 3 Ga Sargur Group and the 3.0-2.5 Ga Dharwar Supergroup. Examples of both successions are described from the region of Jayachamarajapura where they are also distinguished ...

Applying Karst Hydrology Concepts to Anthropogenic Subsurface Systems and Mine Water Management
Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.Due to the pronounced similarities between natural karst systems and mine workings, we consider mine workings as man‐made karst and present the concept of ‘anthropogenic karst’. ABSTRACT Mine water management is a permanent challenge in post‐mining areas where drainage adits play a crucial role for the regulation of water levels within partially ...

Mineralogy and Formation of a Platinum Placer Deposit, Southern South Island, New Zealand
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.Placer platinum group minerals (PGM), with subordinate detrital gold, have been concentrated in Pleistocene coastal sands near the present Foveaux Strait shoreline. This study characterises the PGM in what is New Zealand's only identified PGM deposit.
