Origin of high-Cr podiform chromitites from Kabaena Island, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia: constraints from mineralogy and geochemistry

Chromite Composition and Accessory Minerals in Chromitites from Sulawesi, Indonesia: Their Genetic Significance

Several chromite deposits located in the in the South and Southeast Arms of Sulawesi, Indonesia, have been investigated by electron microprobe. According to the variation of the Cr# = Cr/(Cr + Fe3+), the chromite composition varies from Cr-rich to Al-rich. Small platinum-group minerals (PGM), 1–10 μm in size, occur in the chromitites. The most abundant PGM is laurite, which has been found inclu...

Petrology, Geochemistry and Tectonic Significance of Serpentinised Ultramafic Rocks from the South Arm of Sulawesi, Indonesia

Housing Conditions Contribute to Underweight in Children: An Example From Rural Villages in Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia

Objectives The prevalence of underweight in children under 5 years of age is anomalously high in Konawe District, Southeast Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. This state of affairs may be related to poor housing conditions, such as limited access to clean water, the absence of a sanitary latrine, and the use of poor housing materials. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effect of housing cond...

platinum group elements geochemistry and composition of podiform chromitites from khaje jamali ophiolite complex, neyriz, southern iran

the subduction of the northern part of the tethys is documented by arc magmatism from upper triassic to lower eocene crosscutting the sanandaj-sirjan zone and from upper eocene to plio-quaternary in the urumieh-dokhtar magmatic zone, situated north of the ssz. neyriz ophiolite is part of middle eatern neo-tethyan ocean of mesozoic that geographically is related to ophiolites of nw-se iran, alon...

Platinum-Group Element Geochemistry in Podiform Chromitites and Associated Peridotites of the Precambrian Ophiolite, Eastern Desert, Egypt

The ultramafic portions of the Proterozoic ophiolite, Eastern Desert, Egypt, contain significant chromitite concentrations that are mainly located in the central and southern parts of the Eastern Desert as small and irregular bodies within a fully serpentinized dunite and harzburgite. Chromitite spinel exhibits a wide range of composition from high Cr to high Al varieties. The Cr# of chromian s...
