Traces of extraction in Delian marble quarries attest their exploitation during Antiquity. A preliminary non-destructive provenance study confirmed the presence indigenous Delos constructions. In contrast, have not been geochemically described so far. Therefore, a detailed (1/5000 scale) geological mapping and cross-sections were performed four order to better determine dimension estimate volum...

In this study, the contents of thirty-five elements (nine major-minor oxides, twenty-one heavy metals, and five other elements) in eighty-four muscovite samples collected from three commercially operated quarries Manisa province Turkey were determined using an energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometer. The mean concentrations SiO2, Al2O3, K2O, MgO, Na2O, Fe2O3, P2O5, TiO2 CaO an...

Adze quarries and sources are some of the most visible, unique well-preserved Polynesian archaeological sites where stone technology, intensification production, other aspects economy, social organisation ritual practices anchored together on landscape. The production exchange adzes associated with complex interaction networks connecting islands archipelagos up to 4000 km distant making amongst...

The goal behind this work is defined as the study of quality water from karst springs near quarries exploiting limestone rock in order to assess its adequacy with domestic uses. At that end, a at mountain level was carried out. This Haouz area, Tetouan, which located north Morocco and shelters active quarries. research based on assessment physico-chemical parameters spring used by local residen...

stylolite networks and their insoluble residues (ir) are among the major concerns and the fundamental controls on the mining and processing of sedimentary decorative stones, largely made from dolomitized limestones. they are mainly used, as natural rock blocks and polished slabs, to construct and decorate floors and walls of buildings and monuments. representative quarries in khur areas, east o...

Abstract Quarries are areas of pivotal importance for investigation, popularization, and educational purposes in the field geosciences. Here, we focus on three quarries Tuscany (La Serra, Arcille, Certaldo) that have been home to significant finds marine vertebrate fossils. The selected localities representative many active Serra), inactive (Arcille), abandoned (Certaldo) Tuscan where vertebrat...
