Six minor alluvial chromite placers (Kolkhoznyi Prud, Verkhne-Yaushevo, Sukhoy Izyak, Bazilevo, Novomikhaylovka, Kiryushkino) and one major littoral placer (Sabantuy) were found in sandy sediments of the Kazanian stage Permian System (Late Roadian Wordian Stages) Southern Pre-Urals. It is shown that morphological features chromian spinels are diverse, which not evidence heterogeneity source. Th...

Chromite ore processing residue (COPR), derived from the so-called high lime processing of chromite ore, contains high levels of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) and has a pH between 11 and 12. Ferrous sulfate, which is used for remediation of Cr(VI) contamination in wastewater and soils via reduction to Cr(III) and subsequent precipitation of iron(III)/chromium(III) hydroxide, has also been proposed for rem...

Archaean komatiites of the greenstone belt in Manica area, western Mozambique contains accessory amount of disseminated chromite grains. The komatiite rocks comprise peridotitic and basaltic komtiite. These komatiites are affected by regional metamorphism as all of the studied area. It is observed that only chromian spinel is preserved as the primary mineral and that all the other primary miner...

BACKGROUND Although stainless steel has been produced for more than a hundred years, exposure-related mortality data for production workers are limited. AIMS To describe cause-specific mortality in Finnish ferrochromium and stainless steel workers. METHODS We studied Finnish stainless steel production chain workers employed between 1967 and 2004, from chromite mining to cold rolling of stai...

biogeochemical investigation on s. orientalis, a flora growing on the soils derived from serpentinized dunite in the forumad area, sabzevar ophiolite has been conducted in order to examine the plant-soil relationship in chromite prospecting. due to engagement of cr in the chromite crystal structure and its non-essential role in the plant’s life cycle, ni was used as pathfinder element in biogeo...

We study two reservation deposit policies for a service rm to increase its revenue through higher capacity utilization. First, under the no deposit policy, the rm requires no reservation deposit and imposes no no show penalty. Anticipating potential no shows, a rm may overbook; hence, there is no guarantee that the reserved service will be provided under the no deposit policy. On the contrary, ...
