Mineral Deposits and Global Tectonic Settings

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1984
This book aims to show how ore deposits are related to the concept of plate tectonics; it succeeds. Not too long ago, opaque minerals in a thin section were called “ore” by petrologists and then ignored, and ore deposits were freaks of nature which tended to be where you found them.

Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

Petrogenesis of Jurassic granitic rocks in South China Block: Implications for events related to subduction of Paleo-Pacific plate

Open Geosciences
Frequent magmatic intrusion and eruption during the early Yanshanian in South China formed a unique and diverse igneous rock assemblage, mainly comprising granite, rhyolite, and some basic rocks.

Provenance and depositional environment of the Neogene alluvial deposits of the Birjand Plain (South Khorasan) [PDF]

Journal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches
The study area includes the Neogene alluvial terrace units of Birjand city, which are composed of conglomerate, sandstone and mudstone deposits. Field and petrographicstudies of eight alluvial profile sediments were carried out to investigate the ...

Random finite element analysis on ground subsidence caused by tunnel excavation in karst regions with spatial variable soil

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates ground subsidence during tunnel excavation in karst areas, highlighting the combined effects of karst cave proximity, cave size, and soil spatial variability. Findings suggest that shorter cave distances and larger cave sizes increase subsidence variability, and a modified Peck formula is proposed for more accurate subsidence ...

Exhumation history of the Variscan suture: Constrains on the detrital zircon geochronology from Carboniferous–Permian sandstones (Northern Gemericum; Western Carpathians)

Geologica Carpathica, 2019
The Late Paleozoic sedimentary basins in the Northern Gemericum evolved gradually in time and space within the collisional tectonic regime of the Western Carpathian Variscan orogenic belt. The detrital zircon age spectra, obtained from the Mississippian,

An assessment of stress and production rate of sucker rod heat pipes in oil well pumping system

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The sucker rod pumping system is the preferred oil extraction technique. The concept about equipping the hollow vacuum space in solid sucker rods with heat pipe has been scrutinized in terms of stress and oil production evaluation. Abstract The implementation of the heat pipe concept in sucker rods for oil pumping systems negates the requirement for an

Petrography and geochemistry of alkaline rocks from Michni (Warsak) area, NW Himalayas, Pakistan: Insights into petrogenesis and tectonic setting

Solid Earth Sciences
The Michni area within the Warsak complex that is part of the Peshawar plain alkaline igneous province (PPAIP) in NW Pakistan, hosts a diverse suite of alkaline and carbonatitic rocks whose origin and evolution remain poorly constrained.
