Precambrian Rocks of the Tusas Mountains
INTRODUCTION Precambrian rocks in the Tusas Mountains range from nearly monomineralic quartzite, in which the principal result of metamorphism has been simple recrystallization, through locally metasomatized schist and gneiss profoundly modified by potash-rich fluids during the intrusion of pegmatite. Texturally, the rocks range from schist and phyllite containing penetrative and pervasive clea...
متن کاملMethods for Production of Metallogenic-Prognostic Map of Red Karst Bauxite in the Region of Nikiãka upa,Montenegro (Europe)
Production of Metallogenic-prognostic map (MPM) was preceded by the preparation of instructions that define three phases of work: preparation (with preparation of the Project), realization of field and laboratory research and data processing with production of different maps and, finally, production of the prognostic map with the accompanying instruction book. During the Project realization, th...
متن کاملContrasting types of Precambrian granitic rocks in the Dixon-Penasco area, northern New Mexico
Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national s...
متن کاملThe Midcontinent Rift System
One of the most prominent features on gravity and aeromagnetic maps of the United States is a series of major, generally linear anomalies that extend from central Kansas to Lake Superior and then turn southward into central Michigan (Figures 1, 2). This system of anomalies clearly reflects major geological features, and as such it must represent a very significant episode in the history of the ...
متن کاملThe influence of geology and land use on arsenic in stream sediments and ground waters in New England, USA
Population statistics for As concentrations in rocks, sediments and ground water differ by geology and land use features in the New England region, USA. Significant sources of As in the surficial environment include both natural weathering of rocks and anthropogenic sources such as arsenical pesticides that were commonly applied to apple, blueberry and potato crops during the first half of the ...
