Dictyonema black shale and Triassic sandstones as potential sources of uranium

open access: yesNukleonika, 2015
The main objective of the present study was an assessment of the possibility of uranium recovery from domestic resources in Poland. In the first stage uranium was leached from the ground uranium ore by using acidic (sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid) or

Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trace elements are used to infer mammalian early‐life diets, environmental toxins, dispersal patterns, stress histories, and weaning ages. Here, we employ laser ablation‐inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) to reveal elemental patterns in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees.

A Multi‐Analytical Approach for the Compositional Characterization and Chronological Discrimination of Benin (Nigeria) Metal Sculptures

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a multi‐analytical archaeometric approach for the compositional characterization and chronological discrimination of Benin metal sculptures in relation to the 1897 Punitive Expedition. The methodology integrates elemental composition (XRF and ICP), stable lead isotope ratios (MC‐ICP‐MS) for alloy system characterization ...

Application of Multi‐Method Dating for Understanding the Gravettian North of Moravia, Central Europe

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article presents the results of integrating three methods to assess the age of the Upper Palaeolithic site of Pietraszyn 11 (SW Poland), close to the Moravian Gate. Sediment chronology determined using optically stimulated luminescence produced promising, yet ambiguous results (51.0 ± 3.7 to 20.3 ± 0.7 ka).

Glass from Teniky (Madagascar): Geochemical Evidence for Multiple Production Systems and Long‐Distance Exchange in the Mediaeval Indian Ocean

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The inland rock‐cut site of Teniky, located in the Isalo massif of southern Madagascar, represents an exceptional archaeological context recently dated to the 11th–12th centuries ad, corresponding to the early phases of settlement on the island.

Photoisomerization-mediated tunable pore size in metal organic frameworks for U(VI)/V(V) selective separation

open access: yesNature Communications
Selective extracting uranium from seawater is quite challenging, particularly the presence of vanadium, which poses a significant obstacle for most amidoxime absorbents.

Electrochemical techniques for uranium extraction from water

open access: yesChemical Engineering Journal
Electrochemical removal of uranium from water is an emerging topic that addresses the treatment of drinking water, remediation of contaminated sites, and mining from seawater. Electrochemical strategies compare favorably to conventional processes, such as adsorption and coagulation/flocculation, with advantages in speed and efficiency, materials ...

Environmental Legitimation in A Global Context: Emerging Market Multinational Enterprises Versus Developed Market Multinational Enterprises

open access: yesBusiness Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to study the differences and similarities between emerging market multinationals (EMNEs) and developed market multinationals (DMNEs) in their levels of adoption of environmental management policies and environmental disclosure practices when they increase their international diversification.

Appraisal of Six Natural Mica Reference Materials for In Situ Rb‐Sr Geochronology

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points Evaluated six natural mica reference materials for in situ LA‐ICP‐MS/MS Rb‐Sr geochronology using geochemical, microstructural and isotopic characterisation. Identified robust primary reference materials: Mount Dromedary biotite (99.37 Ma) and Mica‐Fe biotite (307.75 Ma). La Posta biotite and Högsbo muscovite are suitable secondary reference
