Timing and duration of ore deposit formation are crucial to understanding the mineralization process. To address this, geochronological (U-Th)/He method, geochemical H- O-isotope compositions pure goethite formed in Imini karst-hosted Mn district (High Atlas, Morocco) were examined detail. Two main generations cavity-filling fracture-filling identified, both precipitated prior massive oxide ore...

The study investigated whether occupational accident risks were equally distributed across age categories over time in the context of production reorganization and work rationalization in a Swedish iron ore mine between 1980 and 1993. Three phases of reorganization, defined by productivity levels, and four age categories were related to age-related accident risk ratios using the Poisson-regress...

Nano-encapsulated iron oxide in Zirconium oxide-coated mica pigments are thermally stable,innocuous to human health, non-combustible, and they do not conduct electricity. They could beapplied in several industries such as thermoplastics, cosmetics, food packaging, children toys, paints,automobiles coating, security purposes, and banknotes. Nowadays, they are highly desirable inceramic decoratio...

The effectiveness of jigging operation for the beneficiation of low-grade iron ore deposits of Orissa, India has been investigated. Iron ore sample obtained from Barbil region of Orissa containing very high amount of silica and alumina was crushed using the laboratory jaw crusher and roll crusher to prepare different particle sizes. The sink and float tests were carried out to evaluate the poss...

Qara Aqaj titanium potential is one of the two major known titanium resources in Iran. The main host rocks of the ore body are ultramafics including wehrlite and lherzolite with minor clinopyroxenite. Qara Aqaj intrusion is composed mainly of ultramafic-mafic rocks, layered gabbro, diorite, microdiorite and some monzonite and alkali syenite. This intrusion has intruded the basement complex (amp...

introduction there is an iron mining complex called shahrak 60 km east of takab town, nw iran. the exploration in the shahrak deposit (general name for all iron deposits of the area) started in 1992 by foolad saba noor co. and continued in several periods until 2008. the shahrak deposit comprising 10 ore deposits including korkora-1, korkora-2, shahrak-1, shahrak-2, shahrak-3, cheshmeh, golezar...
