The deposits of Bor and Cukaru Peki are important contributors to the Apuseni–Banat–Timok–Srednogorie (ABTS) belt’s metallogenic endowment. We use decision tree random forest algorithms applied zircon geochemistry data from Bor, a selection other localities within ABTS. resulting predictions, supported by high scores on test set predictions for algorithm, suggest that it is possible fingerprint...

This article reviews peer-reviewed publications and book chapters on the history, epidemiology, genetics, ecology, pathogenesis, pathology and management of podoconiosis (endemic non-filarial elephantiasis). Podoconiosis is a non-infectious geochemical elephantiasis caused by exposure of bare feet to irritant alkalic clay soils. It is found in at least 10 countries in tropical Africa, Central A...

A model takes on the quality of theory when it abstracts from raw data the facts that its inventor perceives to be fundamental and controlling, and puts these into relation to each other in ways that were not understood before—thereby generating predictions of surprising new facts. Geochemical modeling has become a popular and useful tool for a wide number of applications from research on the f...

In this study, we examine, identify, and discuss fossil remains of large branchiopod crustaceans collected from six sites across the Beringian region (north-eastern Asia north-western North America). Eggs mandibles Anostraca Notostraca, as well a notostracan telson fragment possible second maxilla, were both paleosediment samples also mammal hair. The branchiopods other species that are limited...

better understanding and recognizing the amount of cultural development in iranian provinces and comparing them, causes a particular attention and helps to recognize their weaknesses, strengths, potentialities and deficiencies. the purpose of this paper is to analyze cultural development indicators in iran. the writers of this article present an applied research and use a comparative method. us...

The Earth formed through accretion of planetesimals in 1–100 million years. Planetesimal impacts induce degassing, melting, and vaporization during accretion. The impact degassing, as well as the gravitational capture of the surrounding solar nebula gas, formed the proto-atmosphere on a growing Earth. The impact of heating and the blanketing effect of the proto-atmosphere resulted in the meltin...

-Multivariate statistical analyses of geochemical, mineralogical, and cation-exchange capacity (CEC) data from a Venezuelan oil well were used to construct a model which relates elemental concentrations to mineral abundances. An r-mode factor analysis showed that most of the variance could be accounted for by four independent factors and that these factors were related to individual mineral com...

In this study two small, but genetically related iron carbonate deposits Mačje Jame and Vranjski Potok, south west of Busovača (MBSM), located in the pre-Devonian metamorphic complex were investigated in detail. Analyses of the main chemical components, trace elements, REE, isotope composition of C, O, S, 87Sr/86Sr ratio of rhyolite, plot of REE normalized to CI chondrites and a microscopic stu...
