متن کاملMigration of trace elements from pyrite tailings in carbonate soils.
In the carbonate soils contaminated by a toxic spill from a pyrite mine (Aznalcóllar, southern Spain), a study was made of a thin layer (thickness = 4 mm) of polluted soil located between the pyrite tailings and the underlying soil. This layer, reddish-yellow in color due to a high Fe content, formed when sulfates (from the oxidation of sulfides) infiltrated the soil, causing acidification (to ...
متن کاملMicrostructural Evolution in OrthotropicElastic Media
We consider the problem of microstructural evolution in binary alloys in two dimensions. The microstructure consists of arbitrarily shaped precipitates embedded in a matrix. Both the precipitates and the matrix are taken to be elastically anisotropic, with different elastic constants. The interfacial energy at the precipitate– matrix interfaces is also taken to be anisotropic. This is an extens...
متن کاملMicrostructural evolution and metastability in active materials
Mctastable systems pose significant problems in both analysis and simulation. We discuss here the evolution of microstructure in a shape-memory alloy where energetic contributions from disparate scales play determining roles. This is a challenge for modelling since the finest length scales cannot be 'seen* at macroscopic level. We then provide a mechanism for kinetics that gives a different not...
متن کاملSulfur sources of buckshot pyrite in the Auriferous Conglomerates of the Mesoarchean Witwatersrand and Ventersdorp Supergroups, South Africa Citation
23 24 Large rounded pyrite grains (>1 mm), commonly referred to as ‘buckshot’ pyrites, are a characteristic feature of 25 the auriferous conglomerates (reefs) in the Witwatersrand and Ventersdorp supergroups. Detailed petrographic 26 analyses of the reefs indicated that the vast majority of the buckshot pyrites are of reworked sedimentary origin, 27 i.e., that the pyrite originally formed in th...
