The reconstruction of the polymetamorphic history of basement rocks in orogens is crucial for deciphering past geodynamic evolution. However, the current petrographic features are usually interpreted as the results of the metamorphic recrystallization of

X-RAY DIFFERACTION ANALYSIS FOR THE INTERPRETATION OF CLAY MINERALS PARAGENESIS IN THE NEOGENE SEDIMENTS OF MANG AND VICINITY, SUB-HIMALAYAS, PAKISTAN [PDF]
The Neogene sediments were interpreted to understand the clay mineral paragenesis in rocks using x-ray differaction technique. The process was conducted with an x-ray diffractometer, Anode = Cu (Cu Kᾳ = 1.541871 A ), Filter = Ni, Current = 15 mA and ...

Parameterization and quantification of recharge in crystalline fractured bedrocks in Galicia-Costa (NW Spain) [PDF]
Quantifying groundwater recharge in crystalline rocks presents great difficulties due to the high heterogeneity of the underground medium (mainly, due to heterogeneity in fracture network, which determines hydraulic parameters of the bedrock like ...

The Stability of Metasedimentary Rock in Ranau, Sabah, Malaysia
DOI: 10.17014/ijog.5.1.23-31The aim of this paper is to determine the stability of slopes and to propose preliminary rock cut slope protection and stabilization measures for Paleocene to Middle Eocene Trusmadi Formation along Marakau-Kigiok in Ranau, Sabah, Malaysia. The rock of Trusmadi Formation is slightly metamorphosed and dominated by interbeds of
