Abstract:

This paper proposes a classification of gravel deposits in the upper Paraná River Basin based on their genesis, sedimentary facies and depositional processes. They were classified in four types: a) Upper slope oligomictic gravel (Fine and coarse-sand associations) – this deposit is associated with the origin of hydrographic basin during the Tertiary; b) Middle slope oligomictic gravel – It constitutes colluvial deposits related to present topography; c) Lower slope oligomictic gravel – this deposit is associated with present river valley; d) Polymictic gravel – deposited during the Pleistocene

The paper presents the results of a study of heavy mineral concentrates of Kosumnerskoe gold deposit as well as the native gold from them. This gold deposit includes two gravel deposits. The granulometric composition, morphology, roundness, flatness, presence of intergrowths of gold with other minerals, as well as the character of the surface, the chemical composition and internal structure of gold, have been investigated. Based on these results, the placer gold of rivers Narta-Yu and Nester-Shor has been concluded to be similar in morphology, chemical composition and internal structure so it

AbstractA mass Classification index was devised to determine the variability of highly variable Quaternary gravel deposits in the Netherlands. To classify the “mass” properties trials have been carried out using the “scanline” concept. The scanline concept was verified in Spain to classify river gravel and glacial deposit mass properties such as grading, particle shape and rock type. Using a mass Classification system called the Scanline Quantification of Uniformity for Aggregate Designation or SQUAD, the scanline concept was adapted to determine representativeness of a sample with respect to

Abstract:

The sand–gravel brine deposit in the Mahai Basin is a newly discovered large-scale potassium–bearing brine deposit. The potassium–bearing brine is primarily found at depths exceeding 150 m within the porous alluvial and fluvial sand–gravel reservoir of the Middle to Lower Pleistocene. This deposit is characterized by a relatively shallow water table, moderate–to–strong aquifer productivity, high salinity, and a KCl content that meets the conditions for exploitation, with the advantage of reduced salt crystallization during well mining, making it a potential reserve base for potash development.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Bedsets of bouldery intraformational conglomerate partly fill a narrow, 40-m-deep paleovalley in the Arikaree Group (lower Miocene) in Nebraska, USA. Entire bar successions are exposed in 3D, offering an opportunity to improve upon sedimentological models for coarse-grained fluvial deposits. Using unmanned aircraft, structure-from-motion photogrammetry, and ground-penetrating radar, we offer the first comprehensive assessment of the lithofacies and stratigraphic architecture of this regionally unique fluvial conglomerate. We interpret three lithofacies associations: (1) beds of chaoti

Abstract:

In hot desert regions, attention is turning to local sources of aggregate that were previously regarded as ‘too difficult' to exploit. This paper describes an investigation of such a deposit in Qatar. The material, known as Wadi gravel, is a gravelly sand of Tertiary age cemented by gypsum. A field survey found the gravel content to be in the range of 10 to 20%. As-dug samples had excessively high sulfate content, which could not be removed with conventional aggregate operations. However, intensive treatment in a local sand-processing plant using multi-stage crushing, screening and washing red

Abstract. INTRODUCTIONMcMurtry et al. (2004) described a thin (c. 20–50 cm) bioclastic, carbonate gravel from the NW coast of Hawaii, on the flanks of the extinct Kohala volcano (Fig. 1). This unit is found between modern altitudes of c. 1.5–61 m above sea-level. The deposit is sandwiched between a fossil soil below and a modern soil above in Keawe’ula Bay (Fig. 2). Dating of coral fragments from within the deposit indicate an age of 110±10 ka (McMurtry et al., 2004). Given rates of subsidence on Hawaii, this would place the deposit at an original palaeo-altitude up to 491 m. The deposit conta

Abstract Geological studies are essential for identifying potential pollution in the Alue Lim Landfill Area, Lhokseumawe City. This research focuses on the physical properties of rocks, soil structure, and specific geological layers that influence water movement. The permeability and porosity of rocks are critical factors determining the ease with which leachate penetrates and migrates through geological formations. The study area encompasses the Idi formation sandstone unit (Qpi) and alluvium deposits (Qh). The Idi formation sandstone unit is characterized by fine to medium grain sizes (0.125

The rock record of the basal Barakar Formation of the Ramgarh Coalfield, Hazaribagh District, Bihar has been interpreted as an ancient example of the sandur deposit, i.e., a glacial outwash plain deposit having two distinct units as (a) channel facies divisible with riffles and pools, and (b) interchannel bar facies. Each of the facies of the environment in its stratigraphic setup, lithological attributes, sedimentary structural assemblage and palaeocurrent pattern correspond to one in the model. The lenticular and sheet-like gravelly and pebbly sandstones with crude and sharp parallel s

The shear strength parameters of conglomerate soils are crucial to the stability analysis of foundation support when excavating and supporting ultra-deep foundation pits in the highland alluvial lacustrine layer. The difference in water content of conglomerate soils in different regions will directly affect the values of shear strength parameters. At the same time, more research on the shear strength of conglomerate soils under different water contents is required. In this study, a series of large-scale direct shear tests were carried out on the round gravel soil in the plateau alluvial-lacust

The sandbodies within braided fluvial deposits are important reservoirs for the oil fields in China, and they usually have complex sedimentary architecture. A lot of research has been concentrated on characterizing the architecture of the sandbodies. Based on the observation that muddy deposits are commonly well preserved in fluvial deposits, we find that understanding the contact relationship between the muddy deposits and surrounding sand bodies can help characterize the depositional process of sandy braided fluvial systems.

Due to high demand of natural aggregate for construction aggregates, sand and gravel are one of the most much mined owing to cheap in production cost. Unfortunately, the value is low economically. The exploration is based only on the outcrop or any part of deposit body exposed to surface. The similarity of the topography surface traits is used to estimate the dissemination leading to high risk or uncertainty in the reserve-estimating. Such a deposit however, is a result of sedimentary process which may be re-eroded leaving behind a truncated body or disseminated in the form of lenses. Since th
