Bolaang Mongondow is located on the Eastern North arm of Sulawesi. This area a Neogene-aged magmatic arc composed plutonic and volcanic rocks that indicate mineralization-bearing host rocks. The study aimed to determine geological setting alteration based observations geochemical analysis. method used mapping, followed by laboratory studio data lithology this andesite, diorite, pyroclastic brec...

Explosive, caldera-forming eruptions are exceptional and hazardous volcanic phenomena. The 1883 eruption of Krakatau is the largest such event for which there detailed contemporary written accounts, allowing information on eruptive progression to be integrated with stratigraphy geochemistry its products. Freshly exposed sequences deposits Krakatau, stripped vegetation by a tsunami generated fla...

The Beaverhead impact structure, in southwestern Montana (44°36-N;112°58'W), was identified recently by the presence of shatter cones and impactitcs in outcrops of Proterozoic sandstones of the Belt Supergroup [1]. The cones occur over an area > 100 km. Because the geologic and tectonic history of this region is long and complex, the outline of the original impact crater is no longer identifiab...

[1] These first measurements of specific surface area (SSA) of bulk samples of subsurfacemarine basalts were undertaken to determine the potential area available for microbial colonization. SSA ranged from 0.3 to 52 m/g of basalt with the lowest value coming from pillow basalt and the highest value from breccia. The average for massive and pillow basalts combined was 2.3 m/g. The total specific...

The lunar meteorite Sayh al Uhaymir 169 consists of an impact melt breccia extremely enriched with potassium, rare earth elements, and phosphorus [thorium, 32.7 parts per million (ppm); uranium, 8.6 ppm; potassium oxide, 0.54 weight percent], and adherent regolith. The isotope systematics of the meteorite record four lunar impact events at 3909 +/- 13 million years ago (Ma), approximately 2800 ...

In geothermal reservoirs, hydrothermal distribution is significant. The most widely utilized reservoirs to date are those of systems, which systems where the reservoir contains steam, water, or a mixture both, depending on pressure and temperature reservoir. One geophysical method that enough map subsurface conditions determine 2-Dimensional Geoelectric using Wenner configuration. This aims stu...
