The altered rock type gold deposit is the one type gold deposits which can form super-large gold deposit. The super-large altered rock type gold deposit has its specialties among the forming time, forming generation, ore-hosted strata, wall rock alteration, area and structure. The southeast Guizhou Province has wonderful minerogenetic conditions. The area has the similar minerogenetic geological setting as many large, super-large altered rock type gold deposits. The characteristics of the altered rock type gold deposits that are distributed in this area have many similarities with other large, super-large altered rock gold deposits. It indicates that the deep of the southeast of Guizhou Province altered rock type gold metallogenic belt has great prospecting potentiality for looking for such type gold deposits from ore-hosted strata, ore-control structure, mineral paragenesis and ore-forming temperature etc.

The conclusion has been made about the necessity to choose the optimal strategies for management by geotechnical systems, based on the analysis of geological faults, which are the main indicator of the mining and geological conditions that characterize the mineral deposits, as well as on the parameters for the infrastructure development of the underground space. The methodological peculiarity of solving the problems set is the use of game theory with modified criteria of Wald, maximax and Savage, since the manifestation of specific geological faults is probabilistic in nature. When choosing the optimal strategy, the average linear deviations of gains or risks are taken into account.

AbstractThe Hill goldfield, NSW, Australia, is an example of a syntectonic, slate-belt gold deposit formed in a multiply deformed, Late Silurian slate-metagreywacke turbidite sequence. Gold is confined to bedding-parallel veins and discordant leader veins composed of as many as four generations of quartz, accompanied by phyllosilicates, carbonates and minor sulphides. Vein formation and gold deposition was apparently synchronous with Early Carboniferous metamorphism and deformation. Homogenisation temperatures (Th) for fluid inclusions in vein quartz demonstrate five groupings in the temperature intervals 350-280°C 280-250°C 250-190°C 190-150°C and 150-110°C corresponding to a variety of primary and secondary inclusions developed during four periods of vein quartz deposition under a generally declining temperature regime. Inclusion fluids are characterised by a low salinity of around 0.1 to 3.6 wt. % NaCl equivalent. The dominant gas phase present in the inclusion fluids varies from N2 in the early stages of the paragenesis, through CH 4 during the main episode of gold deposition, to CO2- rich fluids associated with late-stage mineralisation. δ18O values for vein quartz (range 15.1-17.1‰) and vein carbonate (range 11.3-13.4‰) are typical of metamorphic mineralisation. δD composition of hydrous minerals and inclusion fluids (range −53 to −138‰) suggest an influx of meteoric water in the later mineralising fluids. This conclusion is supported by δ13C data for vein calcite (range −2.5 to −9.7%0). δ34S composition of vein pyrrhotite and pyrite ranges from 6.9 to 7.8‰ early in the paragenesis, to lighter values (around 4.2 to 5.8%0) accompanying late gold deposition from more oxidising fluids. Sulphur isotope data imply a sulphur source from underlying turbidites and an increase in fluid oxidation state during mineralisation . Lead isotope measurements on vein pyrite, arseno py rite, galena and gold are characterised by two isotope populations with 207Pb/206Pb ratios of 0.862 and 0.860, which define two discrete mineralising events during vein formation. Consistency between data from vein minerals and lead isotope signatures for potential source rocks indicate that lead was derived from the sedimentary pile.

<p>In order to conduct an appropriate management in each catchment, it is important to understand how the difference in geological conditions affect the relationship between precipitation and flow regimes.</p><p>Considering the differences in geological characteristics of catchments, this study aims 1)to clarify the period for calculating the total precipitation that is most influential to several levels of daily flow respectively and 2)to clarify the contribution of the change in the total precipitation of ‘the most influential period’ to the change in flow.</p><p>In this study, 63 mountainous catchments (dam catchments) within the Japanese Archipelago were selected as target areas. First, the 63 catchments were divided into 4 groups according to their geological characteristics. Second, from the observed data of daily flow lasting 26 years (from 1993 to 2018), 6 types of daily flow which represent flow of different scales within a year (1, 10, 25, 50, 75, 95 percentiles of daily flow within a year) were searched. In each geological classification, correlation coefficients between each 6 type of flow and total precipitation of various periods (from 2 days to 365 days) were calculated. Finally, for each geological classification and each type of flow, single regression analyses were conducted, setting the rate of change in flow amount as the objective variable, and the rate of change in total precipitation amount of the appropriate period as the explanatory variable.</p><p>As a result, in the analysis of correlation coefficients, significant differences among different geological classifications were seen for lower type of flows but not for higher type of flows. For catchments of volcanic rocks in the Quaternary period, total precipitation of 365 days before the flow occurrence had the highest correlation coefficient with lower type of flows. On the other hand, for catchments of sedimentary rocks in the Mesozoic or Paleozoic era, the most influential period was approximately 45 days, which was the shortest.</p><p>Also, increasing trends in flow (i.e. the rate of change in flow > 1.0) during the target period were seen regardless of the geological classification or the type of flow. However, from the simple regression analysis, the significant effect of the change in precipitation to the change in flow was only seen for annual maximum flow of catchments of sedimentary rocks from the Mesozoic or Paleozoic era. Except this specific geological characteristic and flow type, there is a possibility that other conditions of the catchments (e.g. change in land use) have larger effect to the change in flow compared to the change in precipitation.</p><p>In the analyses mentioned above, the effect of snowfall is not considered. Therefore, in the presentation, the difference between snow covered regions and others are compared in addition.</p>

The choice of mining development strategies is based on the main indicators of mining and geological conditions that characterize mineral deposits. The purpose of the research is to argue the application of the improved Bayes criterion when choosing rational mining development strategies by taking into account the complex mining and geological conditions. The methodology of decision-making in terms of managing geotechnical systems depends on whether or not the probabilities of the conditions and dynamics of the parameters of rocks and soils are known during the development of mineral deposits, as well as the construction of infrastructure facilities. If the probabilities are unknown, then there is the problem of making decisions in the conditions of uncertainty of the initial data to assess the efficiency of the mining enterprises. And if the probabilities are known, then we are dealing with the task of making decisions in conditions of risk and assess the safety of mining operations. The improvement of the Bayes criterion enables us to determine, with an acceptable range of changes in efficiency, a strategy which provides more likely an increase in economic efficiency compared to a strategy selected using the traditional Bayes criterion.

The geological characteristics of the Moon provide the fundamental data that permit the study of the geological processes that have formed and modified the crust, that record the state and evolution of the lunar interior, and that identify the external processes that have been important in lunar evolution. Careful documentation of the stratigraphic relationships among these features can then be used to reconstruct the sequence of events and the geological history of the Moon. These results can then be placed in the context of the geological evolution of the terrestrial planets, including Earth. The Moon’s global topography and internal structures include landforms and features that comprise the geological characteristics of its surface. The Moon is dominated by the ancient cratered highlands and the relatively younger flat and smooth volcanic maria. Unlike the current geological characteristics of Earth, the major geological features of the Moon (impact craters and basins, lava flows and related features, and tectonic scarps and ridges) all formed predominantly in the first half of the solar system’s history. In contrast to the plate-tectonic dominated Earth, the Moon is composed of a single global lithospheric plate (a one-plate planet) that has preserved the record of planetary geological features from the earliest phases of planetary evolution. Exciting fundamental outstanding questions form the basis for the future international robotic and human exploration of the Moon.

The engineering and geotechnical conditions of the site of the helium plant in the Orenburg region are characterized. The possibility of its technogenic pollution has been identified by the results of literary and stock sources, as well as by engineering and geological surveys. The reason for the formation of pollution sites is substantiated. This fact is confirmed by analyzes of assessing the composition of groundwater and the physicomechanical properties of loess soils that make up the upper part of the geological section. Groundwater is characterized by increased mineralization, which is mainly caused by the high content of sulfates, chlorides, magnesium and calcium. Also, there is an increased content of ammonia, the smell of gasoline. Studies of the soil properties showed that it almost lost subsidence properties, with the exception of isolated cases. The subsidence of individual soil samples taken from a depth of 13.0-20.0 m is inexplicable by natural causes due to the impossibility of steeping them, taking into account the hydrogeological conditions of the site. It indicates an irreversible effect of leaks of chemical reagents on the soil. The established engineering and geological features of soils and their behavior along the depth of the section are confirmed by test results presented in the form of tables and graphs. The presented information is of great practical and scientific importance for predicting changes in the characteristics of the geological environment during technogenic pollution at oil and gas facilities. The feasibility of amending regulatory documents for a detailed study of this problem in accordance with existing recommendations and scientific developments is proposed.

The Tavreh mercury prospect, a listwaenite-type alteration/mineralization system, is located c. 90 km west of Khoy in northwestern Iran. Tavreh is hosted within the Khoy ophiolite zone. Three types of listwaenites have been recognized in the Khoy ophiolite: silica, silica-carbonate and carbonate. Of these three, Hg mineralization at Tavreh is spatially and genetically associated with the silica-type listwaenite, also known as berberite. Alteration and mineralization at Tavreh are restricted to a faulted contact between shale and serpentinite. The Tavreh listwaenite is inferred to form from the hydrothermal alteration of brecciated serpentinite. Major mineralogical changes resulting from this alteration include the decomposition of serpentine-group minerals and the formation of silica phases. In this study, the mass changes of 18 listwaenites from Tavreh were assessed relative to the least altered serpentinites. To illustrate these changes quantitatively a comparative analysis of three different methods of calculating mass change was undertaken using Grant's isocon analysis, MacLean's equation and Gresens’ equation. Results from the three methods are similar. Listwaenite alteration was associated with a large increase in SiO2 (44.4, 36.2, 63.9%, respectively). MgO and loss on ignition were depleted (−34.8, −36.9, −36.6; −8.5, −9.3, −8.3%, respectively) and Al2O3 was relatively unchanged (0.7, 0.6, 0.9%). Mercury is the most enriched rare element in altered rock (375.1, 346.8, 474.6 ppm). Arsenic, Pb, Au and Sb were also enriched. The intensity of mass changes of the various alteration components increases significantly from the serpentinite wall rock towards the listwaenite alteration and the ore-bearing zone. Therefore, the mass balance method can probably be used to locate mineral deposits from a few hundred metres and to explore for blind mineral deposits.

Predictions of prospectivity based on remote sensing were developed using alteration mineral indicative hyperspectral mapping and remote sensing anomaly filtering, combined with geological characteristics and anomalous mineral field verification. Based on the results of the hyperspectral mineral mapping and the actual geological ground conditions, the results of mapping of altered minerals, such as chlorite, muscovite, kaolinite, and iron oxide were validated, and gold, silver, copper, nickel, and other geochemical anomaly areas were identified for verification work. The results of hyperspectral mineral extraction show that the mineral assemblage closely related to gold deposits in shear zones is muscovite + chlorite + epidote + kaolinite. This alteration mineral assemblage can be used as regional search criteria for shear zone gold mineralisation and was the basis for the discovery of mineralised hydrothermal alteration centres and delineation of four prospective targets. Established on a spectral prospectivity model of the study area, prospective ore-bearing areas have been delineated, which indicate the direction for further geological and mineral resource surveys.
