Principal Deposits of Strategic and Critical Minerals in Arizona
Author: Geology and Mineral Resources of the Santa Catalina Mountains, Southeastern Arizona
Author: Eric R. ForcePublisher: Center for Mineral Resources
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 162
Book Description
This monograph is the most comprehensive treatment available of the geology of the Santa Catalina Mountains north of Tucson, expanding greatly on classic older descriptions of the southern Catalinas. The study treats the entire range with a cross-sectional emphasis to clarify relations among the mylonitic core-complex aspects to the south, passing northward through voluminous Tertiary granitic rocks and an older deformed and metamorphosed zone into a tilted relic of the Plateau. New rock units such as Precambrian glaciomarine deposits are introduced, and the mineral-resource character and potential of each segment of the range is described. The book includes a full-color 1:48,000 geologic map of an 11 x 48 km transect through the range, oriented to permit reconstruction of the jigsaw puzzle produced by Tertiary crustal stretching. Three other detailed maps and descriptions of key localities make the monograph a self-guided tour through the geologic history of the range.
Mineralogy of Arizona
Author: John W. AnthonyPublisher: University of Arizona Press
ISBN: 0816534047
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 527
Book Description
Long awaited by professional geologists and amateur rockhounds alike, the new Mineralogy of Arizona is a completely revised and greatly expanded edition of a book first published in 1977 and updated in 1982. New material covers 232 minerals discovered in Arizona since the first edition, including 28 first identified in the state. Also new is a section on the history of Arizona mining and mineralogy, which provides context for understanding the significance of mineral discoveries and production since prehistoric times. For nearly 20 years, Mineralogy of Arizona has been respected as the definitive reference on Arizona minerals. Now completely revised and greatly expanded with breathtaking new color photographs, the third edition covers 232 minerals discovered in Arizona since the first edition, including 28 first identified in the state.

Sealing of Boreholes and Underground Excavations in Rock
Author: K. FuenkajornPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400915055
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
Sealing of boreholes and underground excavations has not received much engineering attention until fairly recently. The growing awareness of and sensitivity to environmental concerns of the technical community as well as of the public at large has resulted in an increasing recognition of the fact that these geological penetrations may have an environmental impact. The issue of possible contamination resulting from migration along boreholes, adits, shafts or tunnels unquestionably has been raised most forcefully with in the context of nuclear waste disposal. Several nuclear waste disposal programs, notably the Civilian and the Defence programs of the US De partment of Energy, the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Canadian and Swedish radioactive waste disposal programs have conducted major research efforts aimed at developing adequate seal designs for penet rations in host rock formations for high-level nuclear waste repositories. While a considerable data base has been gathered over the last two decades or so with regard to the performance of seals, most of the information is presented in research reports and widely scattered papers in journals and proceedings of conferences. Hence, the materials are not readily accessible to potential users such as designers, contractors or regulators who are not familiar with nuclear waste disposal programs.
