The Paraíba is an Au-Cu-Mo deposit located in the southern part of Amazon Craton, Alta Floresta Mineral Province, Mato Grosso State, Brazil. It composed Au-Cu-bearing quartz veins and Cu-Mo-rich hydrothermal breccias stockworks, both associated with several alteration zones. integration spectral (reflectance imaging spectroscopy) conventional techniques (core logging, petrography, mineral chemi...

Neste trabalho, descrevemos a obtenção de dois novos compostos de cobre(II), ou precursores, (Pr-Rad) 2 [Cu(opba)].H 2 O (1) e (Bu-Rad) 2 [Cu(opba)].2H 2 O (2), onde opba é o ligante ortofenilenobis(oxamato) e R-Rad são radicais cátions do tipo nitronil nitróxido. A partir destes compostos 1 e 2, foram sintetizados os dois novos magnetos moleculares [Pr-Rad] 2 [Mn 2 {Cu(opba)} 3 ].3,3 DMSO.5H 2...

We investigated the effects of dietary copper and vitamin E in diets containing 6% rapeseed oil on the performance and the antioxidative and oxidative status of growing pigs. The 10 dietary treatments consisted of a basal diet (9 mg of vitamin E/kg feed, 15 mg of Cu/kg feed), the basal diet + 6% rapeseed oil (Diet 1; 18 mg of vitamin E/kg feed, 15 mg of Cu/kg feed), and Diet 1 plus supplements ...

The case describes the business process in one of the programs of a local non-profit organization. The Security Deposit Loan Fund (SDLF) is one of the several programs administered by the Rockingham Community Action. The program provides a loan guarantee to cover up to 80% of a client’s security deposit, to move into a new apartment in Rockingham County. The organization relies mostly on paper ...

During its 25 years of production from 1972 to 1998, the Gibraltar Cu-Mo mine in east-central British Columbia (Figure 1) milled a total of 324 million tons of ore containing an average 0.351% Cu from four open pits. Fieldwork during 2000 involved just over two weeks of detailed pit mapping at the mine. Results of this work and several earlier intervals of pit mapping conducted in 1998 and 1999...

The phyllic alteration in a number of circum-Pacific porphyry Cu-Au deposits is related to high-temperature saline magmatic fluids. This contradicts the widely used genetic models wherein phyllic alteration formed as the result of mixing between magmatic and meteoric fluids. At the Endeavour 26 North porphyry deposit in eastern Australia, the transition from early potassic to the main-stage phy...

In this paper we review work we have done at the IBM Almaden Research Center using the scanning tunneling microscope to understand the epitaxial growth of metal films. In particular, we explore the important role of deposit-substrate Interactions in controlling growth and film structure, both by strain of the substrate and by place-exchange intermixing. These are illustrated first by the growth...

An uptake of zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), and lead (Pb) from aqueous solutions by ion exchange on natural zeolitic tuff has been studied. The Croatian zeolite clinoptilolite from the Donje Jesenje deposit has been used as a natural ion exchanger. The efficiency of removal is higher for Pb and Cu than for Zn ions. Measured concentrations of Si in the liquid phase identify the detachment of the alumin...

The ternary Ni–P–W alloy coating was fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering technique with dual targets of Ni–P/Cu and pure W. Electroplating Ni–P process was introduced to obtain the NiP compound target with extra-high phosphorous contents around 21 at.%. The deposition rate achieved as high as 20 Am/h after modification of the processing parameters. The Ni–P–W coating with a high P/Ni ratio of...
