Evaluation of the geochemistry and hydrochemical quality of Bam salt dome located in southern Iran, was conducted in this study. Two composite samples from salt units were collected and analysed by XRD and XRF to determine their mineral and elemental compositions. Water samples were also collected from the only spring in the area and analysed for major anions, cations and some toxic elements. T...

Abstract Facies of rifting basins reflect different depositional environments from deep to shallow conditions. The present study focuses on subsurface facies characterization and source rock assessment Kareem Rudeis rocks in six wells lying the central Gulf Suez. distribution lithologic patterns delineated through several constructed maps. Porosity cross-plots formations determine minerals poro...

The Alpine Haselgebirge Formation represents an Upper Permian to Lower Triassic evaporitic rift succession of the Northern Calcareous Alps (Eastern Alps). Although the rocksalt body deposits are highly tectonised, consisting mainly of protocataclasites and mylonites of halite and mudrock, the early diagenetic history can be established from non-tectonised mudrock bodies: Cm-sized euhedral halit...

This paper presents a study on the behavior of concrete produced from multi-component blended cements. These blends were prepared by blending 20 percent to 60 percent ASTM Type I cement with the combination of Class C fly ash and clean coal ash. Two percent to four percent sodium sulfate anhydrite was added to the blends as a chemical activator. Tests were conducted on the prepared concrete for...

The following topics related to radionuclide transport in the vicinity of the repository in the 1996 performance assessmentfor the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant are presented (i) mathematical description of models, (ii) uncertainty and sensitivity analysis results arising from subjective (i.e., epistemic) uncertainty for individual releases, (iii) construction of complementary cumulative distribu...
