Iowa Population Exposures to Metals and Metalloids in Well Water

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 7, Page 459-469, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Previous Iowa studies suggest low levels and chronic arsenic exposures are associated with prostate cancer. The rural Iowa population heavily relies on private wells for drinking water resources and thus is vulnerable to contaminants such as heavy metals found in well water.

Multiscale heterogeneity and water abundance of uranium aquifers in coal measures and its significance

Meitan xuebao
The Ordos basin is a crucial comprehensive energy base in China, where coal and sandstone-type uranium resources frequently coexist in an associated form within the same clastic aquifer system, characterized by a typical “coal below, uranium above ...

Cretaceous Spatiotemporal Variations in Tectonic Shortening Directions in the Longmen Shan Tectonic Belt and Geodynamic Implications: Constraints From AMS Fabrics and Crustal Rotation in the Western Sichuan Basin

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract As a major tectonic boundary along the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, the Longmen Shan tectonic belt (LMSTB) underwent pronounced crustal shortening and thickening during the Cretaceous. However, the spatiotemporal evolution of Cretaceous shortening and the boundary's response to far‐field tectonic forcing remain incompletely resolved.

Bayesian Inversion of Electrical Resistivity Tomography Data for Uranium Exploration Through a Localized Ensemble‐Based Approach

Geophysical Prospecting, Volume 74, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is a geophysical method commonly used in mining exploration to reconstruct the subsurface resistivity. The associated inverse problem is typically addressed using deterministic approaches that minimize an objective function and guarantee fast convergence.

Determination of Trace Rhenium in Sandstone-type Uranium Deposits by Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry with Magnesium Oxide Sintering

Yankuang ceshi, 2016
The average content of uranium in sandstone-type uranium deposits is 635 μg/g, whereas the content of rhenium is 0.3-1.9 μg/g. Because of low rhenium content, now precise determination of low Re in high U ores remains unresolved.

Rethinking Collinearity in Self‐Organizing Maps: Evidence From Geophysical Data Classification

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract This study examines the impact of collinearity on unsupervised machine learning algorithms (UMLAs), specifically Self‐Organizing Maps (SOMs), for detecting lithological boundaries in geophysical data. Using a multi‐scale experimental framework that includes bivariate isotropic clusters, geologically complex Noddy simulations, and real‐world ...

Occurrence of pyrites in sandstone-type uranium deposits: Relationships with uranium mineralization in the North Ordos Basin, China

Ore Geology Reviews, 2019
Abstract Large quantities of pyrite have been discovered near the ore-bearing segments of the sandstone-type uranium deposits in the North Ordos Basin. In this study, the electron probe microanalysis, scanning electron microscopy, and isotope geochemical analysis were used to systematically investigate the morphology, composition, and S isotopes of ...

Subduction Initiation Volcanism Leading to Development of the Talkeetna Arc, Lower Shuyak Formation, Kodiak Archipelago, Alaska

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Our understanding of subduction initiation remains limited by the difficulty of making direct observations of geologically recent examples. In the geologic record, supra‐subduction zone ophiolites are often interpreted to record syn‐initiation slab rollback and upper plate extension. Unfortunately, many ophiolites are decoupled from records of

Eocene Tectonic Change in the South Pacific Caused Exhumation of the Transantarctic Mountains in Northern Victoria Land, Antarctica

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
Apatite fission‐track and (U‐Th)/He data indicate rapid exhumation of northern Victoria Land at 40–30 Ma, correlating with opening of Adare Trough at 43–28 Ma. Exhumation was greatest close to the Ross Sea, consistent with other regions of the Transantarctic Mountains.

Reconnaissance of promising areas for sandstone type uranium deposits in the Urmia-Naqadeh-Mahabad basin, NW Iran

Journal of Economic Geology, 2018
Introduction The Urmia-Naqadeh-Mahabad basin is a part of the south and west Urmia Lake drainage basin that covers some parts of East-and-West Azerbaijan and northern Kurdistan.
