the cheshmeh hafez polymetal deposit is located in troud – chahshirin mountain range in southeastern damghan. in this province, the volcanism and associated mineralization are closely related to major faults anjilo and troud with nw-se trend. the exposed rocks in the study area consist of volcano clastic sequence of sandstone, tuff, volcano breccias and mostly andesitic and andesitic- basalt fl...

groundwaters hydrochemistry of ayrakan and cheshmeh shotori areas and geochemistry of rare earth elements, indicate ayrakan alkali granite as the origin of uranium and other dissolved elements in groundwaters of these areas. geochemical and hydrogeochemical studies as well as the trend of uranium and thorium transition and mobility in aqueous environments of these areas indicate uranium adsorpt...

Sar-Kuh porphyry copper deposit is located 6 km southwest of the Sar-Cheshmeh copper mine, Kerman Province, Iran. Based on field geology, petrography and fluid inclusions studies, four alteration types have been identified in the Sar-Kuh area. Early hydrothermal alteration formed a potassic zone in the central parts of Mamzar granite/grano-diorite stock and propylitic alteration in its peripher...

Differential SAR Interferometry (D-InSAR) is an effective tool in monitoring land subsidence because of its greater coverage area and better resolution of height change. A series of Japanese Earth Resources Satallite-1 (JERS-1) images from 1992 to 1998 has been used in monitoring the mine subsidence in the test site of this study, one of the important coal mining areas in China. D-InSAR procedu...

The Itai-Itai disease case is one of four major pollution-related lawsuits occurring in Japan after World War H. This paper, which is based on investigations of the pollution source, the Kamioka mine, considers (1) the history of the disturbances to the environment caused by the Kamioka mine; (2) the Itai-Itai disease suit; (3) the pollution nprevention measures and methods of the Kamioka mine ...

water has an important role in creating pollution problems in the mining regimes influencing the surrounding surface environment. the purpose of this study is to make an assessment of groundwater quality in an underground mine site in portugal with a view of determining the pollution potential of groundwater. in the corresponding surface area of this underground mine, intersections of fou...

nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide gases together with dust are known as the major pollutants arising during the blasting operations using the ammonium nitrate-fuel oil (anfo) explosive at the sungun surface mine, located in the northwest of iran. the pollutants were monitored during some blasting operations at the mine. it was concluded that the gases and dust clouds initially went up to the ...

sarcheshmeh copper mine, with the final reserves of 828 million tons of sulfur ore and average grade of 0.74%, is known to be the largest open pit of iran and most probably the second largest copper mine in the world. this mine is located in the seismotectonic zone of central-iran, and 23 km away from the 150 km long rafsanjan active fault.in this study the vulnerability of the west wall of the...
