Proceedings of GeoComputation ‘97 & SIRC ‘97 Effective mineral exploration requires a detailed knowledge of the factors and processes which result in the formation of economic deposits. To apply this knowledge, a sound three-dimensional understanding of the geology and structure of a region is required. In most cases, surface geology can be mapped with a high degree of accuracy, however, the ge...

Several disciplines like Environmental Toxicology, Epidemiology, Public Health and Geology have been the basis of the development of Medical Geology in Uruguay during the last decade. The knowledge and performance in environmental and health issues have been improved by joining similar aims research teams and experts from different institutions to face environmental problems dealing with the po...

This report summarizes the major findings of a United States Geological Survey (USGS)-funded project entitled the "West-Central Florida Coastal Studies Project" and managed by the USGS Center for Coastal Geology and Regional Marine Studies in St. Petersburg, FL. USGS scientists from Woods Hole and Menlo Park were involved as well. This project was a co-operative five-year venture with scientist...

A project is underway to map die indoor radon potential for New York State at the township level. Through a detector distribution program the New York State Department of Health has a database of over 36,000 basement screening measurements. The address field for the indoor measurement data is being linked to latitude and longitude coordinates using data files containing coordinate information. ...

Fieldand petrographic studies of the Paleozoic metamorphic rocks of New York City suggest a new interpretation of the stratigraphy and structure of the region and has delineated a number of ductileand brittle faults. The belt of rocks originally lumped together as the Manhattan Schist is now interpreted to consist of three mappable units structurally imbricated by two major ductile faults, the ...

The Qiulitage structural belt in Tarim Basin has a large reservoir burial depth and complex geological conditions. Challenges such as ultra-depth, high temperature, pressure stress lead to significant problems related well control safety project efficiency. To solve these key technical issues that set barriers the process of exploration development, drilling technology via integration geology eng...
