MODELLING THE As-Au ASSOCIATION IN HYDROTHERMAL GOLD MINERALIZATION: EXAMPLE OF ZARSHURAN DEPOSIT, NW IRAN

Ethnopharmacological survey of six medicinal plants from Mali, West-Africa

An ethnopharmacological survey was carried out to collect information about the use of six medicinal plants in the regions around Siby and Dioila, Mali. The plants investigated were Biopyhtum petersianum, Cola cordifolia, Combretum molle, Opilia celtidifolia, Parkia biglobosa and Ximenia americana. More than 60 medical indications were reported for the use of these plants in traditional medicin...

Geology and Mineralization of Bikilal phosphate deposit, Western Ethiopia, implication and outline of gabbro intrusion to East Africa zone

The Bikilal layered gabbro-complex is composed of zones/layers of olivine/ pyroxene gabbro and hornblende gabbro. Within the hornblende gabbro, repeated lens-like thin and elongated bodies of hornblendite are found intimately associated with massive and disseminated ilmenite-magnetite bodies, in places with apatite. Petrological examination of the hornblende gabbro shows 50-55% hornblende, 40-4...

Ancient west Eurasian ancestry in southern and eastern Africa.

The history of southern Africa involved interactions between indigenous hunter-gatherers and a range of populations that moved into the region. Here we use genome-wide genetic data to show that there are at least two admixture events in the history of Khoisan populations (southern African hunter-gatherers and pastoralists who speak non-Bantu languages with click consonants). One involved popula...

Epithermal Gold and Base Metal Mineralization at Gandy Deposit, North of Central Iran and the Role of Rhyolitic Intrusions

The Gandy gold-base metal deposit is located in Tertiary Torud-Chahshirin volcano-plutonic range, north of Central Iran. Various styles of gold mineralization occur throughout the range. Mineralization at Gandy occurs in close spatial relation with rhyolitic domes in a caldera setting in a series of narrow brecciated veins. Two mineralogically and spatially different argillic alterations have a...
