This paper presents a new protocol for the laboratory preparation of archaeological samples. Ceramics that have been hand‐crafted using different sediments as raw materials were collected in a Roman Villa sited in Fiumana (FC), Italy. This method aims at concentrating and analysing heavy minerals in the 15–250 μm grain size fraction, studying the ...

Abstract Hydrothermal activity during continental breakup and early oceanic spreading is poorly understood due to limited samples. A basalt‐hosted hydrothermal mineralization, drilled during IODP Expedition 367/368 at the northern South China Sea at the continent‐ocean transition provides a unique opportunity to investigate this phenomenon.

Linking rock fabric to fibrous mineralisation: a basic tool for the asbestos hazard [PDF]
In recent years, many studies have addressed the effect on human health caused by asbestos exposures. As asbestos is a group of fibrous minerals that mainly occurs in mafic and ultramafic rocks (ophiolitic sequences), a close relationship between ...

Geochemical Characteristics and Genetic Types of Gobi Nephrite in Ruoqiang—Qiemo, Xinjiang
BACKGROUND The Hetian nephrite belt is the longest nephrite belt in the world at 1300km. In addition to the traditional primary and placer nephrite, there is widespread Gobi nephrite in the Gobi desert of the Quoqiang district in Xinjiang.

Abstract The growing demand for sustainable materials in construction and ceramics has driven interest in geopolymer technology as an eco‐friendly alternative to traditional cement‐based systems. Geopolymers, synthesized from aluminosilicate precursors like metakaolin, offer high mechanical performance, chemical resistance, and lower carbon footprints.
