The sedimentological death mask of a dying glacier
The Pasterze is Austria's largest glacier, and it is experiencing rapid downwasting and retreat. A mosaic of complex sedimentary deposits has been produced in recent years which have not hitherto been studied, yet provide excellent lessons into the ...

Gold geochemistry and mineralogy of till fines: a new approach for data integration [PDF]
A new method of heavy mineral (HM) separation and assessment of gold grade was compared with the results of conventional AAS analysis. Sixteen gold micronuggets and a number of particles of native metal and metal alloys (brass, tin, bismuth, lead) were ...

Naakenavaara Interglacial - a till-covered peat deposit in western Finnish Lapland [PDF]
More than 100 till-covered organic deposits are currently known in the Finnish Lapland. All others, except Naakenavaara, are interpreted as having deposited during either the Early-Weichselian Peräpohjola/Maaselkä interstadial or the Eemian interglacial ...

Marjamurto, an interstadial site in a till covered esker area of central Ostrobothnia, western Finland [PDF]
Till-covered glaciofluvial deposits, presumably eskers, are common in Central Ostrobothnia (Pohjanmaa) within a zone more than 50 km broad, in which no exposed eskers are present.
