Ten road cut samples collected from five lithological sections of Lokoja sandstone formation in the Middle Niger basin were investigated using integrated granulometric, petrographic and geochemical analyses. Results of grain size analysis; standard deviation and skewness which ranges from 0.08 to -0.05 and 0.59 to -0.07 respectively suggest very well sorted to moderately well sorted sediments. ...

Anomaly separation using stream sediment geochemical data has an essential role in regional exploration. Many different techniques have been proposed to distinguish anomalous from study area. In this research, a continuous restricted Boltzmann machine (CRBM), which is a generative stochastic artificial neural network, was used to recognize the mineral potential area in Korit 1:100000 sheet, loc...

1 We present a software tool for simulations of flow and multi‐component solute transport in 2 two and three‐dimensional domains in combination with comprehensive intra‐phase and 3 inter‐phase geochemistry. The software uses IPhreeqc as a reaction engine to the multi‐ 4 purpose, multidimensional finite element solver COMSOL Multiphysics® for flow and 5 transport simulations. Here we used COMSOL...

Water quality monitoring is crucial in managing water resources and ensuring their safety for human use environmental health. In the Al-Jawf Basin, we conducted a study on Quaternary aquifer, where various techniques were utilized to evaluate, simulate, predict groundwater (GWQ) irrigation. These include indices (IWQIs), geochemical modeling, multivariate statistical analysis, geographic inform...

The most significant aspect of a geochemical exploration program is to define and separate the anomalous values from the background. In the past decades, geochemical anomalies have been identified by means of various methods. Most of the conventional statistical methods aiming at defining the geochemical concentration thresholds for separating anomalies from the background have limited the effi...

Geochemical anomalies are geochemical features different from what is considered normal. They can be the result of: 1. unusual or uncommon processes concentrating particular elements (e.g. an ore-forming process, weathering and element dispersion from an unusual element concentration such as an orebody); 2. element accumulation or concentration by common processes acting over long periods (e.g....

Geochemical gene is a new promising concept proposed recently in the discrimination and traceability of geological materials also useful tool to recognize geochemical anomalies mineral exploration. Based on lithogenes LG01 LG03, can be classified into nine types LG_CR compositionally. With respect with 11 LG_CR, order eliminate lithological influence further narrow prospecting target area, tung...

The water management initiatives in freshwater systems focus on availability to preserve this resource for human uses and the health of aquatic ecosystems. This work presents an assessment potential pollution risk caused by metal suspended sediments. objective study was determine partitioning, association, geochemical fractionation metals sediments from a surface body. Additionally, environment...
