Abstract Rutile from a wide range of orogenic gold deposits and districts, including representative world-class deposits, was investigated for its texture trace element composition using scanning electron microscopy, probe microanalysis, laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. Deposits are hosted in various country rocks felsic to ultramafic igneous sedimentary rocks, which...

The Eagle Bay assemblage in south central British Columbia contains numerous polymetallic massive sulphide deposits, mainly within highly deformed and metamorphosed Devonian felsic volcanic rocks. A number of these, including Rea and Homestake, have had limited past production, and others have undergone extensive exploration and development. Less known and understood are the sediment-hosted mas...

The diagnostic classification of glomerulonephritis is determined by the interplay of changes seen using light, immunofluorescence, and electron microscopy of the renal biopsy. Routine direct immunofluorescence on fresh tissue is currently considered the gold standard for the detection and characterization of immune deposits. We recently found a peculiar form of glomerular immune complex deposi...

kalchoye copper-gold deposit is located about 110 kilometers east of esfahan province and within the eocene volcano sedimentary rocks. sandy tuff and andesite lava are important members of this complex.the form of mineralization in area is vein and veinlet and quartz as the main gangue phase. the main ore minerals are chalcopyrite, chalcocite, galena and weathered minerals such as goethite, iro...

Britain is a country with modest gold deposits. At least six tonnes, possibly up to ten tonnes, of gold have been recovered from numerous localities in Britain. Recent discoveries have revealed another six tonnes in Scotland and over 30 tonnes in Northern Ireland, with the likelihood of more to be found. A new mine in Northern Ireland is producing several thousand ounces of gold per year. These...

INTRODUCTION In our previous study, we found that negatively charged gold nanoparticles with spermidine have the potential of blocking inwardly rectifying potassium channels (Kir), both at the cellular and the tissue level. METHODS For the purpose of the present study, we purified the cytoplasmic domain of the Kir 3.1 receptor from Escherichia coli. Using single particles with surface coating...

The electro-deposition of titanium from two different classes of ionic liquids has been studied. Gold ions in solution have been used as an additive in order to provide a stable nucleation site for titanium to deposit on via a co-deposition process. Despite evidence from previous literature, it was found that it was not possible to reduce titanium from the +4 state to titanium (0) due to proble...
