three granitoid bodies, shirkuh batholith, kaffe abad and ader bolandan are exposed in nw yazd, cutting across the naiband formation (upper triassic), and overlain by cretaceous formations. shirkuh batholith is most likely of jurassic age. it seems to be the first and the most significant episode of magmatism in studied area which occurred in middle jurassic (late cimmerian) time. on the other ...

the no removal over oxide sorbents (k2o/al2o3 , cao/al2o3 and bao/al2o3) at a loading of up to 25 wt.% was investigated using a synthetic diesel exhaust gas containing  1,000 ppm no, 1000 ppm iso-butane (i-c4h10), 8% o2 and n2 balance. the reactor was operated  at 250 oc to 450 oc for the activity study. no was effectively stored (removal efficiencies between 30-60 %) as nitrate under experimen...

The effect of K2O on viscosity in CaO-SiO2-Al2O3 melt has been measured by a rotating spindle viscometer. It is indicated from the experimental results that viscosity first increases then decreases with the increasing content of K2O; the maximum viscosity occurs in the field of K2O/ Al2O3 > 1. After gradually adding K2O, the transformation of bridging oxygen (from being bonded with Al ion charg...

We examine several issues related to peridotite partial melting by composition (Na2O decreases, CaO/Al2O3 increases) are similar to the effects of increasing total extent of melting of a fixed source performing thermodynamic calculations using the MELTS algorithm. composition, and the two phenomena may therefore be difficult to MELTS calculations suggest that the high alkali content of neardisc...

two types of mineralization including porphyry copper and epithermal gold mineralization have occurred in relation with an intermediate volcano-plutonic complex in masjeddaghi area. different alterations including silica, advanced argillic, intermediate argillic and propylitic have been distinguished in relation with epithermal mineralization, which have a zonal pattern. elemental mass gains an...

We present the results of melting experiments on a moderately depleted peridotite composition (DMM1) at 10 kbar and 1250±1390 C. Specially designed experiments demonstrate that liquids extracted into aggregates of vitreous carbon spheres maintained chemical contact with the bulk charge down to melt fractions of 0 02±0 04 and approached equilibrium closely. With increasing melt fraction, SiO2, F...

In this manuscript we report crystal structure of a new complex binary phosphate K2Ce(4+)(PO4)2 in K2O-P2O5-CeO2 system prepared by solid state reaction at moderate temperature conditions. The prepared material was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction using lab source and synchrotron radiation as well as thermal analyses, Raman scattering, FTIR, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic studie...

The present study was undertaken to develop potassium management recommendations that maximize yield and post harvest quality of tomato. Studies were conducted at Faculty of Agriculture, Gomal University, Dera Ismail Khan, KPK, Pakistan during 2008-2009. A pot experiment was designed, which included six potassium fertilizer treatments (75, 150, 225, 300, 375, 450 Kg K2O ha ) with basal doses of...

sarcheshmeh porphyry copper deposit is located 65 km southwest of rafsanjan in kerman province. the sarcheshmeh deposit belongs to the southeastern part of urumieh-dokhtar magmatic assemblage (i.e., dehaj-sarduyeh zone). intrusion of sarcheshmeh granodiorite stock in faulted and thrusted early-tertiary volcano-sedimentary deposits, led to mineralization in miocene. in this research, the mass ch...
