Alternative approaches to dryland reclamation enhance vegetation cover and soil stability at a former uranium mine

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Conventional reclamation methods to recover dryland ecosystems after mineral extraction often have low success. Alternative reclamation techniques may help overcome the many challenges to establishing persistent native vegetation and stable soils.

Outcrop and subsurface characterisation of a mixed tidal and wave‐influenced coastline (Triassic Red Beds, SE Spain)

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paralic depositional systems are complex and heterogeneous sedimentary environments, presenting challenges for predicting reservoir architecture and connectivity. Their stratigraphic and facies variability arises from the dynamic interplay between fluvial, tidal and wave processes, and their sensitivity to sea‐level fluctuations, sediment ...

Genesis of green sandstone/mudstone from Middle Jurassic Zhiluo Formation in the Dongsheng Uranium Orefield, Ordos Basin and its enlightenment for uranium mineralization

China Geology, 2020
: The middle Jurassic Zhiluo Formation in the Dongsheng is comprised of a big set of green sandstone/mudstone with most of uranium orebodies occurring in close proximity to its footwall. By synthesizing field observations, region analysis, data collected

Study on Uranium Occurrence State of Sandstone-Type Uranium Deposits in Qianjiadian Region, Songliao Basin, China

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020
Abstract The Qianjiadian uranium deposit is located in the southwest margin of Songliao basin. In this paper, electron probe, energy spectrum, back scattering analysis, scanning electron microscopy and other experimental methods are used to study uranium occurrence form and uranium mineral type in Qiandaidian uranium deposit. The results

Preserved Through Hyperaridity, 150 Million Years of Exhumation and Strike‐Slip Deformation in the Atacama Coastal Cordillera

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Coastal Cordillera of northern Chile, in the forearc of the Andean subduction zone, provides an ideal site to evaluate exhumation above the oldest active subduction under extreme aridity. This range lies parallel to a sediment‐starved trench, has experienced hyperaridity since the Miocene, and is transected by the ∼1,000‐km‐long Atacama ...

Mesozoic–Cenozoic Thermochronology of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan System, NW China

Geological Journal, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 2258-2278, August 2026.
Tectonothermal history of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan system compared with the major tectonic events at far‐field plate margins. ABSTRACT The Tarim Basin, an oil‐bearing basin in northwest China, is tectonically and sedimentologically linked to the Southern Tianshan Orogenic Belt.

Uranium resource of Europe: Development status, metallogenic provinces and geodynamic setting

Energy Strategy Reviews
Since the 21st century, the closure of domestic uranium mines in Europe has made it one of the world's leading importers of uranium. In recent years, a series of policy adjustments have led to an improving situation for enriched uranium supply, yet the ...

In-situ Micro-scale Pb Isotope Identification Characteristics of Metallogenic and Non-metallogenic Pyrites in Sandstone-type Uranium Deposits

Yankuang ceshi, 2022
BACKGROUND Sandstone-type uranium deposits contain a large number of pyrites of different shapes and stages. It is difficult to accurately discriminate the pyrite formed before, during or after the metallogenic period solely by observation of pyrite ...

Exhumed eo‐Alpine High‐Pressure Rocks Fed Campanian Turbidites in Eastern Sardinia

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the detrital record of the early orogenic evolution of the Sardinia‐Calabria system, preserved in Upper Cretaceous arenites exposed in eastern Sardinia. Sardinia and Corsica form a continental block that includes a segment of the Alpine orogen and of its former foreland basin.
