Abstract:

Abstract. Stone tool-making is a reductive process. Synthetic rock manufacturing, preeminently an additive process, will not for-ever be confined to only the Earth-biosphere. This brief focuses on humanity's ancient past, hodiernal and possible future even more massive than present-day creation of artificial rocks within our exploitable Solar System. It is mostly Earth-centric account that expands the factual generalities underlying the unique non-copyrighted systemic technogenic rock classification first publicly presented (to the American Geological Society) during 2001, by its sole intellectual innovator, James Ross Underwood, Jr. His pioneering, unique exposition of an organization of this ever-increasingly important aspect of the Anthropic Rock story, spatially expansive material lithification, here is given an amplified discussion for the broader geo and space science social group-purpose of encouragement of a completer 21st Century treatment of Underwood's explicative subject-chart (Fig. 2).

Abstract:

We present a new rock-physics modeling approach to describe the elastic properties of low-to-intermediate-porosity sandstones that incorporates the depositional and burial history of the rock. The studied rocks have been exposed to complex burial and diagenetic history and show great variability in rock texture and reservoir properties. Our approach combines granular medium contact theory with inclusion-based models to build rock-physics templates that take into account the complex burial history of the rock. These models are used to describe well log data from tight gas sandstone reservoirs in Saudi Arabia, and successfully explain the pore fluid, rock porosity, and pore shape trends in these complex reservoirs.

Abstract:

As some intertidal biota presently live near their upper tolerable thermal limits when emersed, predicted hotter temperatures and an increased frequency of extreme-heat events associated with global climate change may challenge the survival and persistence of such species. To predict the biological ramifications of climate change on rocky seashores, ecologists have collected baseline rock temperature data, which has shown substrate temperature is heterogenous in the rocky intertidal zone. A multitude of factors may affect rock temperature, although the potential roles of boulder surface (upper versus lower), lithology (rock type) and minerology have been largely neglected to date. Consequently, a common-garden experiment using intertidal boulders of six rock types tested whether temperature characteristics differed among rock types, boulder surfaces, and whether temperature characteristics were associated with rock mineralogy. The temperature of the upper and lower surfaces of all six rock types was heterogeneous at the millimetre to centimetre scale. Three qualitative patterns of temperature difference were identified on boulder surfaces: gradients; mosaics; and limited heterogeneity. The frequency of occurrence of these temperature patterns was heavily influenced by cloud cover. Upper surfaces were generally hotter than lower surfaces, plus purple siltstone and grey siltstone consistently had the hottest temperatures and white limestone and quartzite the coolest. Each rock type had unique mineralogy, with maximum temperatures correlated with the highest metallic oxide and trace metal content of rocks. These baseline data show that rock type, boulder surface and mineralogy all contribute to patterns of heterogenous substrate temperature, with the geological history of rocky seashores potentially influencing the future fate of species and populations under various climate change scenarios.

Abstract:

The source rock maturity and the hydrocarbon generation history are evaluated in the deepwater Phu Khanh Basin. The average values of heat flow, paleo water depth, and surface-water interface temperatures range from 50.80–61.69 mW/m2, 150-3,500 m, and 2.30-250C, respectively. The Oligocene and Lower–Middle Miocene source rocks are presented. The Oligocene source rock is derived from the lacustrine environment; it is mature to overmature in the Southwest part of the Phu Yen Depression. The main oil phase started in the Early Miocene, and the amount of wet gas occurred only at the bottom part. The Lower-Middle Miocene source rock has been immature in both the Southwest and Northeast part of the Phu Yen Depression. Based on the geochemical analysis, these source rocks were predominantly a mixture of type II and type III kerogens. The total organic carbon and the hydrogen index values range from 1.8-2.5 % and 250-320 mg/g, respectively. The results can help define reservoir locations for future field development planning in the Phu Khanh Basin.

Abstract:

In order to further reveal the failure mode and dynamic response law of dangerous rocks with different degree of weathering in the rock cavity under the action of earthquake and to provide early warning and forecast for steep slope of dangerous rocks in similar earthquake areas, a typical steep slope of dangerous rock in earthquake area of Sichuan, China, was taken as the research object, after detailed geological survey, and according to the chain development law of dangerous rock, the steep slope of dangerous rock before the earthquake was restored. Based on the 3D particle flow software PFC3D, the dangerous rock was divided into 3 modes according to the degree of weathering of the mudstone rock cavity, and the three-dimensional discrete element dangerous rock model under different modes was established. By introducing the horizontal and vertical two-way coupled seismic waves in Wenchuan, Sichuan, in 2008, the failure evolution process of steep slope of dangerous rock under the action of the horizontal and vertical coupled seismic waves was dynamically simulated, which proved the rationality of the simulation. The frequency spectrum of velocity-time history signal of each rock block in the dangerous rock model was analyzed by MATLAB programming, and the time-frequency characteristics of each dangerous rock model under the action of coupled seismic wave were studied. The research results have important scientific guiding significance and practical value for the dynamic stability evaluation and prediction of such steep slope of dangerous rocks under the combined action of rock cavity weathering and earthquake.

Full text

Abstract:

SUMMARY The anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) of rocks reflects the alignment of certain minerals, and therefore it can be used to investigate the deformation history of rocks. However, for salt rocks, very few studies on the AMS of salt rocks and the influence of accessory minerals exist. In this study, we analysed the potential to use the AMS of salt rocks with low impurity content for fabric characterization. Samples of rock salt, sylvinite and carnallitite from a salt mine in Sondershausen (Germany) from the Late Permian (Zechstein 2, Stassfurt series) are investigated. The results of low-field AMS (LF-AMS) measurements show a very weak but significant magnetic anisotropy for sylvinite, carnallitite, and rock salt with an elevated content of accessory minerals. The AMS results are consistent in individual layers of the same rock type. In order to identify the magnetic minerals, which cause the magnetic anisotropy, the high-field AMS (HF-AMS) was measured using a torque magnetometer in order to separate ferrimagnetic and paramagnetic contributions to the AMS. A significant paramagnetic subfabrics exists, which reflects the alignment of phyllosilicates. The magnitude of the LF-AMS is considerably greater than that of the paramagnetic subfabric. This indicates the existence of a ferrimagnetic subfabric due to magnetite, which can have a different orientation than the paramagnetic subfabric. Differences in the orientation of the AMS in samples from two sites suggest a relationship of deformation history and AMS. At a site with dipping layers, the AMS orientation is independent of the bedding and shows large differences between individual lithological layers. In a tight fold, the AMS of all rock types has similar shape and orientation. We conclude that AMS in salt rocks can give meaningful information on the mineral fabric, which could be used in the analysis of the deformation history.

Full text

Abstract:

The indigenous Australian genus Petrogale (rock-wallabies) consists of small to medium sized macropodids that are found throughout mainland Australia. As their name implies, rock-wallabies live in rocky habitats, preferring steep rocky slopes, cliffs, gorges, rocky outcrops and boulder piles (Sharman and Maynes 1983a). Many rock-wallaby species are distinctively marked, brightly coloured and are amongst the most beautiful of all macropods. Although well known to Aboriginal Australians for (at least) tens of thousands of years, rock-wallabies were only "discovered" by European explorers and naturalists in the early 19th century. Considerable variation in size, pelage characteristics and skull morphology has lead to the formal scientific description of 26 taxa in the last 170 years. The history of the scientific "discovery" of Petrogale in Australia and their subsequent taxonomy is long and fascinating. It is a story dominated by uncertainty and considerable speculation surrounding the inter-relationships of many taxa. It is in this historical context of confusion and contradiction that the current comprehensive genetic studies of rock- wallabies have both their significance and their genesis.

Abstract:

The strain-softening and dilatancy behavior of soft rock is affected by the loading history and the development of structure. This study regards soft rock as a structured and overconsolidated soil and develops a new elastoplastic model based on the classical super yield surface Cam-clay model. The proposed model is capable of capturing the effect of yield surface shape on the mechanical behavior of soft rock by introducing a new yield function. The proposed model is validated against the triaxial test results on different types of soft rocks under drained condition. The comparison results indicate that the proposed model is suitable for describing the constitutive behavior of soft rock.

Full text

Abstract:

AbstractStone alignments, including tipi rings and drive lines, are abundant on the northern Plains and adjacent Rocky Mountains, but they have been notoriously difficult to date. This paper applies luminescence dating to sediments directly underneath the rocks to estimate the age of placement of the rock. This is based on the assumption that before the rock was emplaced, turbation processes brought sufficient grains to the surface, where sunlight reset the signal. Single-grain dating of potassium feldspars allowed isolation of these original well-bleached grains, which by now have built up a signal because the rock prevents transfer to the surface. Plotting the number of original well-bleached grains with depth showed that these grains were concentrated just under the rock and decreased with depth. This is what would be predicted if the assumption is true. Dates were derived from several samples from Kutoyis in north central Montana, from Whitewater in eastern Montana, and from several sites in northwestern Wyoming. Many samples from Kutoyis and Wyoming dated to the last 600 years, but some samples from both places were more than 2,000 years old. The Whitewater features also dated to around 2,000 years ago. The ages are consistent with the cultural history of the areas.

Full text

Abstract:

The land areas around Dove Bugt are dominated by quartzo-feldspathic orthogneisses with a complex history of emplacement and deformation. The oldest rocks recognised are supracrustal units, mainly marbles and rusty-weathering metasedimentary rocks. Locally gabbro-anorthosite units are associated with the supracrustal rocks. These rock units are cut by different phases of the gneisses, of which the most abundant are grey banded orthogneisses. Two different varieties of pink orthogneiss are also recognised. Different types of tabular amphibolitic bodies, relicts of dykes or sills, cut most rock types. The area lies within the East Greenland Caledonian fold belt, but available isotopic data suggest that the crystalline rocks include Archaean and early Proterozoic suites which have undergone uncertain degrees of Caledonian reworking. It is not clear at present how much of the deformation history of at least four periods of deformation and associated mylonitisation is Caledonian, and how much pre-Caledonian.

Abstract. Coal being one of the main energy resources in China. Coal industry plays an important role in the domestic economy. Roadway support is a key technology in coal mining, and the mechanical properties of surrounding rock directly affect the stability of roadways and their supporting structure. In order to solve the problem of gateway support for C8 coal seam, In terms of the rheological data got from the argillaceous siltstone samples and the influence that loading history has on rock deformation, it employs Burgers model to reflect the creep characteristics of rock. The analytical results demonstrate that the creep test curves of rock sample basically tallies with the theoretical curves and Burgers clearly describes the creep characteristics of rocks. The relationship between surrounding rock stress and surrounding rock deformation provides roadway support with reasonable evidence.

Full text

Abstract:

ABSTRACT The source rocks of the Lower Cretaceous Thamama Group in east Abu Dhabi were identified by using wireline logs. This technique was applied to 33 wells which provided a well-sampled new regional pattern of source rock distribution and thickness. The Thamama Group includes rich source rocks in the Aptian Shu’aiba intra-shelf basin facies and a moderate source rock potential in the dense layers, especially those in the basal part of the Nasr Formation. The reconstruction of the burial and thermal histories indicates that the mature Thamama kitchens are mainly located in the eastern part of Abu Dhabi, adjacent to the foredeep basin and reached optimum maturity levels starting in the Eocene. Westward migration from these kitchens is mainly lateral and updip toward the main Thamama producing fields in central Abu Dhabi. The conclusion that the hydrocarbons migrated laterally is supported by oil to source rock correlation and the vertical distribution of hydrocarbons in the reservoirs.

Abstract:

Elaborate, religiously sanctioned relationships between people and place are one of the most distinctive features of Aboriginal Australia. In the Australian desert, rock paintings and engravings provide a tangible link to the totemic geography and allow us to examine both changes in the role of individual places and also the development of this system of relationships to land. In this paper we use rock-art to examine the changing history of Puritjarra rock shelter in western central Australia. The production of pigment art and engravings at the shelter appears to have begun by c. 13,000 BP and indicates a growing concern by people with using graphic art to record their relationship with the site. Over the last millennium changes in the surviving frieze of paintings at Puritjarra record fundamental changes in graphic vocabulary, style, and composition of the paintings. These coincide with other evidence for changes in the geographic linkages of the site. As Puritjarra's place in the social geography changed, the motifs appropriate for the site also changed. The history of this rock shelter shows that detailed site histories will be required if we are to disentangle the development of central Australian graphic systems from the temporal and spatial variability inherent in the expression of these systems.

Geoscientists extract data from the rock record to constrain long-term environmental, climatic and biological evolution, with the understanding that geological processes of erosion and rock destruction may have overprinted some aspects of their results. It has also long been recognized that changes in the mass and chemical composition of buried sediments, operating in conjunction with biologically catalyzed reactions, exert a first-order control on Earth surface conditions on geologic timescales. Thus, the construction and destruction of the rock record has the potential to influence both how Earth and life history are sampled, and drive long-term trends in surface conditions that otherwise are difficult to affect. However, directly testing what the dominant process signal in the sedimentary record is — rock construction or destruction — has rarely been undertaken, primarily due to the difficulty of assembling data on the mass and age of rocks in Earth's crust. Here, we present results on the chronological age and general properties of rocks and sediments in the Macrostrat geospatial database (https://macrostrat.org). Empirical patterns in surviving rock quantity as a function of age are indicative of both continual cycling (gross sedimentation) and long-term sediment accumulation (net sedimentation). Temporal variation in the net sedimentary reservoir was driven by major changes in the ability of continental crust to accommodate sediments. The implied history of episodic growth of sediment mass on continental crust has many attendant implications for the drivers of long-term biogeochemical evolution of Earth and life.

Abstract:

AbstractA proportion of the heat added to a body of rock during prograde metamorphism will be absorbed in the chemical work of metamorphic recrystallization. When and where heat is so absorbed will affect the exact thermal histories of the rocks, and hence the metamorphic textures. This paper reports the results of modelling of the inter-relations between reaction progress and thermal histories in a rock column. The results suggest that volumes of rock undergoing reaction at any moment act as heat sinks and absorb heat from the surrounding rock, that reaction generally takes place close to the temperature at which nucleation took place, and that steady heating of a rock pile can give rise to a reaction history in which spurts of reaction are separated by ‘quiet’, non-reactive intervals.

Abstract:

A new method for modeling rock-physics depth trends called “geo-consistent depth trend modeling” is presented. No new rock-physics models are developed in this work, but existing models are put together in a new workflow. The workflow integrates rock-physics modeling with petrologic porosity models that account for burial, pressure, and temperature history. The new approach honors geologic trends, patterns, and cyclicity in the rocks. Examples based on well data are given to show how depositional trends can influence seismic response and depth trends. Geo-consistent depth trends are compared with the standard method for rock-physics depth trends, and differences are discussed. Geo-consistent depth trends can contribute to increased understanding of the subsurface and give input to risking of targets in exploration.
