Hydrothermal Alteration of the Martian Crust: an Experimental Approach

Introduction: On Mars, the geomorphology of numerous surface features has been attributed to the interaction of magmatic and impact heat sources with an H 2 O-rich Martian crust/megaregolith [1-3]. In addition , geochemical analyses of soil at the Pathfinder and Viking landing sites indicate high concentrations of SO 3 and Cl [4-6], consistent with interaction between a basaltic protolith and f...

Synthesis and characterization of nanocrystalline CoAPO-5: Structural and morphological analysis by alteration on hydrothermal parameters

Nano-zeolite CoAPO-5 as a member of AFI family, was synthesized via a hydrothermal treatment, and structurally characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX). The effects of crystallization temperature and time on the structure of these powder products were studied. XRD patterns of the synthesized powders revealed a h...

Geology and Hydrothermal Alteration of the Mercur Gold Deposit, Utah

The term "Carlin-type" deposit has been applied to a number of low-grade, sedimentary rock-hosted gold deposits that have been discovered and brought into production in the western United States since the 1960s. Carlin-type deposits are characterized by replacement of carbonate and silty carbonate rocks by silica, pyrite, barite, various arsenic, mercury, antimony, and thallium minerals and by ...
