In the Buchim porphyry copper deposit, we determined several representative rare mineral phases, comprising metals from gold-palladium group as well those bismuth-selenium (Cu-Bi-Se-Te-As) group. The phases are represented by new in bismuthinite, galenobismutite, krupkaite, friedrichite, emplectite, laitakarite and native bismuth of gold-palladium, including gold palladium with their elemental ...

Increasing use of engineered nanoparticles (NPs) is likely to result in release of these particles to the aquatic environment where the NPs may eventually accumulate in sediment. However, little is known about the potential ecotoxicity of sediment-associated engineered NPs. We here consider the case of metal oxide NPs using CuO to understand if the effects of NPs differ from micron-sized partic...
