Two non‐seismically generated sedimentary volcanoes were excavated on the Colorado River delta in Lake Powell, Utah, USA, in order to characterise the internal structures. Sedimentary volcanoes are commonly employed as tools in palaeoseismic reconstruction, thus it is important to establish criteria to differentiate non‐seismic‐generated sedimentary ...

MICROTOPOCHEMISTRY AND GEOCHEMICAL FEATURES OF A PYRITE NODULE OF СARBONACEOUS SILTSTONES OF THE SAF′YANOVKA MASSIVE SULFIDE DEPOSIT (CENTRAL URAL) [PDF]
Pyrite nodules of carbonaceous siltstones of the Saf´yanovka nonmetamorphosed massive sulfide deposit consist of a porous poikilitic pyrite core (zone A), which is partly transformed to metacrystalline pyrite aggregates at the periphery (zones В и С ...

While the Smithian–Spathian boundary carbon isotopic excursion has been traditionally interpreted as capturing global carbon cycle behaviour, recent studies have suggested that at least some Early Triassic carbon isotopic excursions may incorporate influences from authigenic or early diagenetic processes.

TRACE ELEMENTS IN ZONAL OLIVINE OF BRONZE AGE METALLURGICAL SLAGS, SOUTH URALS [PDF]
Metallurgical artifacts including Cu-bearing slag fragments were found in the Bronze Age settlements of the South Urals. The slags from settlements of the Sintashta culture (Kamenny Ambar, Ustye and Sarym-Sakly) are mainly composed of olivine, magnetite ...

The Newark Basin has seen renewed interest recently as a potential location for carbon sequestration. This study uses a recently exposed outcrop to investigate the reasons behind varying lithologies and post‐depositional soft‐sediment deformation in the fluvial sandstones of the Stockton Formation. Using field observations and sediment geochemistry, we

Mineralogy of alluvial sediments of Avzyan gold region (the Southern Urals)
The Avzyan gold region is located within the Bashkirian anticlinorium and includes lode gold deposits and placers. The Gorny Priisk, Bogryashka and Ulyuk-Bar gold deposits are hosted in the Riphean metamorphosed carbonaceous sequence.

Interglacial dust, ocean fertilisation and Neoproterozoic earth oxygenation
Mineral dust is an integral part of modern ocean nutrient supply. It is originated mainly in deserts and by glacial processes. Given the global scale of the Neoproterozoic glaciations, we suggest that mineral dust formed during snowball events were blown to oceans, sustaining life, promoting CO2 sequestration and contributing to the oxygenation of ...
