Banding textures are commonly observed in mineral crystals for example in sphalerites in Mississippi Valley-type deposit. Cellular Nonlinear Network (CNN) has been developed in the literature for characterizing complexity especially for reaction-diffusion dynamic systems. These include models describing periodic precipitation incorporating nucleation and banding pattern formation in minerals. B...

In the present work, solution precursor plasma spray (SPPS) process was used to deposit zinc oxide (ZnO) coatings on wood surfaces using nitrate as improve hydrophobicity and color stability of European beech under exposure ultraviolet (UV) light. The surface morphology topography samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) atomic force (AFM). formation ZnO detected with he...

Informal lending and savings institutions exist around the world, and often include regular door-to-door deposit collection of cash. Some banks have adopted similar services in order to expand access to banking services in areas that lack physical branches. Using a randomized control trial, we investigate determinants of participation in a deposit collection service and evaluate the impact of o...

Trace element (TE) analysis of pyrite via LA-ICP-MS can be used to reconstruct the conditions formation in complex mineral systems. The Carpentaria province northern Australia is host some world’s highest value Zn-Pb (+Ag, Cu) deposits. genesis many these deposits controversial, with competing models single-vs. multi-stage ore formation. In this study, data paragenetically constrained from Geor...

a well-known algorithm of clustering is k-means by which the data are divided into k classes based upon a distance criterion. in the present research, by using k-means method for classifying data derived from exploration boreholes in the parkam deposit, the optimum k has been calculated and then the data have been clustered and the relative geochemical behavioral characteristics analyzed. the c...

ZnSe-based nanocrystals (ca. 4-5 nm in diameter) emitting in blue region (ca. 445 nm) were incorporated in spherical small silica particles (20-40 nm in diameter) by a reverse micelle method. During the preparation, alkaline solution was used to deposit the hydrolyzed alkoxide on the surface of nanocrystals. It was crucially important for this solution to include Zn(2+) ions and surfactant mole...
