Garnet-fassaite calc-silicate nodule from La soufriire. st. vincent
The mineralogy of an unusual calc-silicate nodule brought to the surfaoe by the 1902 eruption of La Soufriere volcano on St. Vincent (Lesser Antilles arc) is described. It consists of the crystalloblastic mineral assemblage fassaite pyroxene + grandite garnet + wollastonite + anorthite t calcite. The pyroxene is more aluminous (Al2O3 : 19.66 weight percent) than any previously described from te...
متن کاملPressure, temperature and fluid composition in the Kalaybar aureole, NW Iran; Mineral equilibria in metapelitic and calc-silicate rocks
Intrusion of the Kalaybar nepheline syenite into the Cretaceous pelitic and calcareous sediments has produced a thermal aureole up to 1km thick. Six mineralogical zones are developed in the pelitic rocks with minerals such as cordierite, K feldspar, sillimanite and corundum. Chemically suitable rocks are partially melted in response to the heat from the pluton. Five mineralogical zones are deve...
متن کاملOrigin and Distribution of Thiophenes and Furans in Gas Discharges from Active Volcanoes and Geothermal Systems
The composition of non-methane organic volatile compounds (VOCs) determined in 139 thermal gas discharges from 18 different geothermal and volcanic systems in Italy and Latin America, consists of C(2)-C(20) species pertaining to the alkanes, alkenes, aromatics and O-, S- and N-bearing classes of compounds. Thiophenes and mono-aromatics, especially the methylated species, are strongly enriched i...
متن کاملWettability Determination of Geothermal Systems
A method has been developed to infer the wettability of steam-water-rock systems based on the relationship between permeability and capillary pressure by Purcell. The Purcell model was extended to two-phase flow to verify whether the wettability is a function of water saturation. The results calculated using the experimental data showed that the wettability index in the drainage process was gre...
متن کاملWorkshop “Geothermal fluids in saline systems”
Editorial Topic 4 of the Renewable Energy Program of the Helmholtz Association focusses inter alia on the sustainable and cost-efficient use of geothermal reservoirs for base-load supply of heat and electricity by EGS. Current EGS projects show the limitations of such systems. Firstly, the localization of a potential reservoir prior to drilling still remains a major challenge. Secondly, the min...
