Crops diversity and maintaining and enhancing the fertility of agricultural lands are basic principles of organic farming. With a wider range of crops in agroecosystem can improve the ability to control weeds, pests and diseases, and the performance of crops rotation and food safety. In this sense, the main objective of the research was to study the productivity and chemical composition of some...

more often clay matrix is the major factor to reduce the porosity and permeability in sandstone facies. consequently determination of clay minerals is of prime importance in reservoir quality assessment. the present study aims to identify four different types of clay mineral namely kaolinite, illite/cholorite, halloysite, and montmorilonite from petrophysical logs (pls) using cation exchange ca...

A Microsoft Excel macro is described that enables rapid recognition of common opaque minerals. The program uses ore mineralogical features such as reflectance, anisotropy, bireflectance, Vickers Hardness and morphological features (bladed crystals, zoning and twinning) to identify possible candidates from a database of 200 common ore minerals. Reflectance can be estimated from the uncorrected l...

Iron ore deposit Bijar area is located in east north in Kordestan province based of field observation, ore minerals are magnetite, magnetite-martitite and magnetite-pyrite. No. 922 points on the 16 profiles were collected over about 7500 meters in the area. Magnetometers treatment of advanced devices and new GSM-19T is made in Canada. The data were corrected and the magnetic field intensity map...

Minerals can be divided into two main categories, 1) macro-minerals and 2) micro or trace minerals. Macro minerals are minerals that are needed/required in relatively large amounts in comparison to micro or trace elements which are needed/required in relatively small amounts. In general macro minerals are required at concentrations greater than 100 ppm of the diet and are often expressed as a p...

Modelling of a mineral dissolution front propagation is interest in wide range scientific and engineering fields. The minerals often involves complex physico-chemical processes at the solid–liquid interface (at nano-scale), which micro-to-meso-scale can be simplified to problem continuously moving boundaries. In this work, we studied diffusion-controlled congruent from meso-scale phase transiti...
