Sulfide-tolerant marine invertebrates employ a variety of mechanisms to detoxify sulfide once it has entered their bodies, but their integumentary, respiratory epithelium and circulatory cells may still be exposed to toxic sulfide concentrations. To investigate whether sulfide exposure is toxic to mitochondria of a sulfide-tolerant invertebrate, we used the fluorescent dyes JC-1 and TMRM to det...

This paper provides a review of the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER), Advanced Land Imager (ALI), and Hyperion data and applications of the data as a tool for ore minerals exploration, lithological and structural mapping. Spectral information extraction from ASTER, ALI, and Hyperion data has great ability to assist geologists in all disciplines to map the d...

Generalization of the results study placer gold and mechanisms its distribution in east Siberian Platform made it possible for first time to reveal that ore sources gold-bearing placers were mainly mineralization gold-sulfide formation formed under influence hydrothermal metasomatic processes occurred deep fault zones. It is determined hydrothermal-metasomatic formations rock are amagmatic, nea...

The ribbed mussel Geukensia demissa inhabits sulfide-rich coastal sediments with a distribution that suggests a preference for exposure to sulfide. Although sulfide is a respiratory poison, it is also a potent reductant. Geukensia demissa gill mitochondria can use sulfide as a respiratory substrate for ATP production, and the gills of this species exhibit sulfide-supported oxygen consumption th...

A push-pull method, previously used in groundwater analyses, was successfully adapted for measuring sulfide turnover rates in situ at different depths in the meromictic Lake Cadagno. In the layer of phototrophic bacteria at about 12 m in depth net sulfide consumption was observed during the day, indicating active bacterial photosynthesis. During the night the sulfide turnover rates were positiv...

supergene oxidation-leaching and secondary sulfide enrichment in the sarcheshmeh porphyry cu-mo deposit generated a supergene profile to depths of 20 to 80 meters with oxide ore reserve about 22 mt. @1.08% cu and sulfides ore [email protected]% cu. geochemical distribution and behavior of trace metals associated with cu namely mo, au, and ag in the supergene profile of the sarcheshmeh were po...

The material source and the evolution of ore-forming hydrothermal fluids Xiaojiashan gold deposits remain controversial. We carried out a mineralogical characteristics analysis, trace elements sulfur isotope composition fluid inclusion microthermometry in order to explore sources, conditions, process this deposit. Gold mineralization can be divided into three stages: quartz-pyrite stage, quartz...
