The importance of local parent material has been recognized as a fundamental control on the geochemistry of lake sediments, but there have been relatively few broad-scale surveys of catchment sources of terrigenous lake sediments. In this paper, I present a geochemical study of catchment parent materials and lake sediments from four lakes in Northern Minnesota. Similar climate and vegetation conditions are present at all four lakes, which vary mainly in catchment parent material and lake morphometry. Geochemical data including major, trace and rare earth elements (REEs) from catchment parent material samples was compared with lake sediment geochemical data using PCA, linear regression, geological indices and elemental ratios. In homogenous till-dominated catchments, patterns of elemental variation in the catchment till could be extended to predict elemental concentrations in the lake sediments. Simple ratios, which are commonly used to analyze lake sediment geochemical data, were not good predictors of lake sediment composition, however. Catchments with mixed bedrock and till were compositionally heterogeneous, and comparison with lake sediments was difficult. Lack of grain size control and biogenic silica measurements further confounded analysis. However, ΣREE/Y ratio was found to be diagnostic of the catchment parent materials and present within the lake sediments. This study makes a contribution to an improved understanding of lacustrine sedimentary archives by analyzing the spatial linkages among catchment, water and sedimentary geochemistry.

Повний текст джерелаCurrently, the Loire river, sees its geodynamic increasingly deteriorated. The deficit of sediment transport causes erosion of the bed on several areas of the basin. This results in a gradual destabilization of structures (dams, bridges), erosion or clogging of banks or a decline in piezometric level alluvial.Treating these problems requires a better understanding of the processes of erosion and river incision, the second succeeding the first, once the alluvial material of the bottom was completely removed, revealing a bed outcrop.This complex phenomenon is currently found in various parts of the Loire river, in the plain of Forez.We propose three approaches for this analysis.The first approach is based on numerical modeling using the equations of Barre-de-Saint-Venant, for flow, coupled with the equations of Exner and Meyer-Peter Müller for sediment transport. This monodimensional model allows the simulation of riverbed changement and sediment discharge, right each calculation point of grid mesh.The second approach is mechanistic and consists of determining the rate of marly bedrock incision by a semi-empirical method by the use of two major variables: the total hydraulic power and an abrasion coefficient. The hydraulic power is calculated using a hydraulic model, while the abrasion coefficient is a mechanical property of the marl which is determined from laboratory tests.The third approach is the geochemistry. It consists in determining the provenance of the materials from tributaries and in the main chanel by analyzing their geochemical signatures. This has been the subject of laboratory tests on samples taken across the linear from Grangent to Balbigny.The results obtained show that these independent approaches are complementary and provide both a qualitative and quantitative description of the incision of the Loire river in the study area

Granites underlie large land areas and play a key role in global weathering patterns. This study provides insights into the effects of I- and S-type granites on weathering, pedogenesis, mineralogy and soil geochemistry of major, trace and rare earth elements across a climosequence in a tropical environment. We hypothesized that soils derived from I-type granites lead to huge differences in weathering, pedogenesis, mineralogical and geochemical patterns in comparison to those derived from S-type granites. The study was carried out in Borborema Province, NE Brazil, using petrological, mineralogical, geochemical and soil standard analyses; multivariate analysis and geographic information system approaches were used to evaluate such data. In general, results showed that the highest major, trace and rare earth element concentrations in soils derived from I-type granites are related to their higher proportion of accessory minerals: allanite, titanite, apatite, amphibole and opaque minerals. Bastnaesite and monazite seems to the major sources of rare earth elements in soils derived from I- and S-type granites, respectively. Geophysical field measurements show different magnetic susceptibilities, whereby I-type granites have substantial higher magnetic properties than S-type granites. Soils originated from I-type granites are quantitatively more significant carbon pools. Multivariate statistical techniques are useful to guide and support environmental management decisions not only to understand soils variability but also to contribute to agriculture production and soil-related environmental issues. Spatial distribution maps are suitable for supportting soil fertility management and crop specific fertilization. These results highlight the following issues: i) The importance of detailed characterization of granite types to understand the weathering patterns and carbon stocks in tropical settings; ii) Granitic composition and climate-related weathering processes are soil formation key factors to understanding major, trace and rare earth element distributions in soils; iii) The geologic factor on soil formation cannot be neglected in climosequence studies aiming to allow the understanding of environmental issues such as pedogenesis, soil geochemistry and carbon stocks. In addition, our findings provide wider implications in large parts of the tropics (S-America, sub-Saharan Africa, India, SE and East Asia, Australia) which are underlying by igneous rock types including I- and S-type granites and where effective management tools are needed to increase nutrient use efficiencies for increased productivity of food, fodder and energy crops.
Os granitos são a base de grandes áreas de terra e desempenham um papel fundamental nos padrões globais de intemperismo. Este estudo fornece insights sobre os efeitos dos granitos do tipo I e S sobre o intemperismo, a pedogênese, a mineralogia e a geoquímica do solo de elementos principais, traços e terras raras, em uma escala climática em um ambiente tropical. Nossa hipótese é que os solos derivados de granitos do tipo I levam a enormes diferenças nos padrões de intemperismo, pedogênese, mineralogia e geoquímica, em comparação àqueles derivados de granitos tipo S. O estudo foi realizado na Província de Borborema, nordeste do Brasil, utilizando análises petrológicas, mineralógicas, geoquímicas e de padrões de solo; análise multivariada e abordagens do sistema de informações geográficas foram utilizadas para avaliar tais dados. Em geral, os resultados mostraram que as maiores concentrações de elementos principais, traços e terras raras em solos derivados de granitos do tipo I estão relacionadas à maior proporção de minerais acessórios: allanita, titanita, apatita, anfibólio e minerais opacos. Bastnaesita e monazita parecem ser as principais fontes de elementos terras raras em solos derivados de granitos tipo I e tipo S, respectivamente. As medições geofísicas do campo mostram diferentes susceptibilidades magnéticas, pelo que os granitos do tipo I têm propriedades magnéticas substancialmente mais altas do que os granitos do tipo S. Solos originados de granitos tipo I são conjuntos de carbono quantitativamente mais significativos. As técnicas estatísticas multivariadas são úteis para orientar e apoiar as decisões de gestão ambiental, não apenas para entender a variabilidade dos solos, mas também para contribuir para a produção agrícola e questões ambientais relacionadas ao solo. Mapas de distribuição espacial são adequados para apoiar o manejo da fertilidade do solo e adubação específica da cultura. Esses resultados destacam as seguintes questões: i) A importância da caracterização detalhada dos tipos de granito para entender os padrões de intemperismo e os estoques de carbono em ambientes tropicais; ii) A composição granítica e os processos de intemperismo relacionados ao clima são fatores-chave na formação do solo para entender as distribuições de elementos principais, traços e terras raras nos solos; iii) O fator geológico na formação do solo não pode ser negligenciado estudos de climosequência visando a compreensão de questões ambientais como pedogênese, geoquímica do solo e estoques de carbono. Além disso, nossas descobertas fornecem implicações mais amplas em grandes partes dos trópicos (América do Sul, África Subsaariana, Índia, sudeste e leste da Ásia, Austrália) que são subjacentes por tipos de rochas ígneas, incluindo granitos do tipo I e S e onde São necessárias ferramentas de gestão eficazes para aumentar as eficiências de uso de nutrientes para aumentar a produtividade de alimentos, forragem e culturas energéticas.

Повний текст джерелаThe Sadiola goldfield is located in the eastern Kédougou Kéniéba Inlier of the West African Craton. The study area is located in the western region of the Republic of Mali close to the international border between Mali and Senegal, and approximately 75 km south of the regional capital of Kayes in the sub-Sahelian region of West Africa. The goals of this research are to study the different geological relationships: oxide and unaltered rock (calc-silicate, siltstone-shale-greywacke); oxide and structure; oxide and mineralisation; supergene alteration and mineralisation; supergene alteration and structure. To achieve the Sadiola Hill oxide zone geochemical complexities and alteration signatures study, many research studies were conducted such as lithological and oxide 2D mapping, lithological and oxide 3D modelling. The oxide profiles were sampled for gold analysis, XRF, and XRD analysis. The found minerals were separated into light and heavy. The key minerals identified by XRD are alunite (K2Al6 (SO4)4(OH)12) and jarosite (K2Fe63+ (SO4)4(OH)12). The mineral association suggests a highly acidic environment and acidic supergene conditions. The examination of oxides also allowed distinguishing the different ferricrete horizons in the Sadiola goldfield. Significant gold mineralisation is hosted in the oxide profile (weathered calc-silicate) in the Sadiola Hill opencast pit. Sadiola gold plant at Sadiola gold mine is fed oxide ore mined from the oxidation profile in the weathered rock. The oxide ore fed into the Sadiola gold plant includes laterite, transitional oxide and saprolitic oxide. The age of oxide saprolite and oxide transitional zones is assumed to have formed during recent weathering by deeply penetrating meteoric waters. In general, the geology of the oxide feed is assumed to be derived from weathering and decomposition of rocks of the Birimian Supergroup. The need of oxide-feed to sustain Life of Mine of the Sadiola goldfield mean that exploration for oxide ore is critical but understanding the geology and geochemistry of the oxide is also vital, particularly in terms of ore optimization. Five main lithologies are identified from mapping the Sadiola Hill area and these include calc-silicate, siltstone-shale-greywacke, metasandstone, diorite and quartz-feldspar porphyry. Furthermore, six calc-silicate sub-facies are identified as (1) thick-bedded (more than 0.5-1 cm) marble with an alternation of white and black layers, (2) thin-bedded (3-5 mm), (3) massive marble, (4) slump-folded marble, (5) carbonaceous siltstone and (6) pure marble. Oxide mapping in the Sadiola Hill opencast pit identified three oxide profiles and three distinct alteration types as follows (Type 1) decarbonated calc-silicate alteration, (Type 2) Fe alteration (oxide-jarosite-siderite), and (Type 3) potassic clay alteration. The Fe-oxide and potassic clay alteration profile are related to the gold mineralisation at the Sadiola goldfield. 3D lithological modelling conducted in the Sadiola goldfield has established a significant relationship between gold mineralisation and the calc-silicate unit. The 3D oxide profiles and hard rock modelling defined three types of gold mineralisation according to the age of the host. Young gold is found in the ferricrete of Eocene-Miocene age, the second type of gold is found in the oxide profile (oxide saprolite and transitional) of unknown age and the third type is found in the hard rocks of Birimian age. Gold mineralisation is associated with the (1) lithological contacts, (2) north-south trending structure (Sadiola Fracture Zone), (3) northeast trending faults, while it is proportionally with iron (Fe) and potassium (K) alteration. The three-oxide development has been sampled individually to characterise the oxide geochemistry and alteration signature. The geochemistry study of the oxide zone of the opencast mine identified the following minerals (1) Silica or quartz (SiO2), (2) Goethite (Fe+ 3O.OH), (3) Muscovite (KAl3Si3O10 (OH) 2), (4) Siderite (FeCO3), (5) Biotite KFeMg2 (AlSi3O10) (OH) 2, (6) Bernalite (Fe (OH) 3), (7) Orthoclase (KAlSi3O8), (8) Alunite (K2Al6 (SO4)4(OH)12) and (9) Jarosite (K2Fe63+ (SO4)4(OH)12). The presence of jarosite and alunite are an indicator of an acidic pH condition. The XRF analysis results established the relationship between the gold grade and silica, potassium, and iron. The presence of alunite and jarosite highlight a highly acidic environment and acid supergene conditions. The oxidation of the calc-silicate rock caused the diminution of volume and subsequent concentration of the gold mineralisation in the decarbonated calc-silicate mainly along the structures. This diminution of volume also caused the collapse of the contact between the siltstone-shale-greywacke in the west of the Sadiola Hill opencast pit and the decarbonated calc-silicate rock in the east. This contact is known as Sadiola Fracture Zone. The collapses of the decarbonated calc-silicate is associated with the flexure of the Sadiola Fracture Zone, a number of discontinuous bodies of diorites and quartz-feldspar porphyry units, and possibly produced the soft sediment deformation in the Sadiola Hill opencast pit. Sadiola goldfield can be classified as an oxide gold enrichment deposit.

Повний текст джерелаMineralisation overlain by extensive cover can be identified through the geochemical signature dispersed through the surrounding regolith. This project aimed to use portable XRF (pXRF) analysis to increase the understanding of the regolith geochemistry in the proximity of the Cygnet-Snelling Shear Zone (CS-SZ), Kangaroo Island. The shear zone is significant as it hosts several potentially economic deposits including the Bonaventura Copper (Cu) deposit as well as the Dewrang and Kohinoor Lead - Zinc (Pb-Zn) prospects. By using pXRF analysis at 2m intervals on drill hole transects taken from the vicinity of the CS-SZ it was hoped to be able to discern known pathfinder elements associated with Cu, Pb and Zn mineralisation. The data collected from these transects can be used to develop a model of the regolith sequence lithogeochemistry, and to determine which elements can be reliably analysed by pXRF within a regolith sequence such as that seen on Kangaroo Island. The study has also attempted to identify any geochemical signatures associated with Cu, Zn or Pb mineralisation, their spatial extent and potential as geochemical vectors towards mineralisation.

Повний текст джерелаThe search for economically viable ore deposits focuses increasingly on deeply buried deposits. This study was designed to highlight specific mafic/ultramafic igneous bodies in the western Gawler Craton, near Streaky Bay, South Australia, through the analysis of the behaviour of pathfinder elements within the regolith above anomalous aeromagnetic targets. In particular, the possibility of developing a rapid and inexpensive means of characterising the intrusions at depth by looking within the calcareous sediments located within the top two to twelve metres of regolith was evaluated. Data from 26 of the 53 holes drilled were analysed, covering an area of approximately 214 km2. This area covers a diverse lithological basement including ultramafics, gabbros, granitoids and felsic gneisses and is located near a strong magnetic anomaly. Given the significant difference in basement lithology of the target bodies (mafic to ultramafic) versus the variably magnetic felsic to intermediate granitoids, pathfinder elements including Ni, Cu, Cr, Mn and V, which are elevated in mafic to ultramafic rocks, were targeted. Depth plots and ratios of the transition elements are shown with simple graphing techniques are used to illustrate the behaviour of geochemical signatures throughout the profile and to display any correlation between basement rocks and the regolith. There was no discernible anomaly in any trace metals throughout the calcrete of the uppermost regolith unit. Calcrete pathfinder element abundances are uniformly low, which is to be expected, as the sediments are up to 75% carbonate, and any basement detrital signature is highly diluted. In the majority of holes, however, an abrupt increase in these element values occurred at the base of the calcrete or a few metres deeper within ferruginous sediments. The increase in values occurred in Ni, Cu and Cr, but was most prominent in V. This pattern is reflected in the plots for the basement saprolitic material. Unfortunately, sampling of the oxidised zones requires expensive and timeconsuming air-core drilling through up to twelve metres of calcrete, and in places soft, unconsolidated sands. More detailed geochemical analyses of the calcrete layers in the 26 holes were undertaken to try to establish a method of identifying the basement lithology from the calcrete chemical data. Absolute abundances of pathfinder elements are too low in the calcrete to be useful in distinguishing differences in basement lithology. While calcareous sediments may contain subtle geochemical indicators of the differences in basement lithology, it alone is not adequate to confidently predict the basement lithology for drilling. Below the calcrete, within the oxidised zone, the geochemical anomalies are large enough to confidently conclude whether the basement is mafic or felsic.
