Full text
Abstract:
This study considers the application of image analysis in petrography and investigates the possibilities for advancing existing techniques by introducing feature extraction and analysis capabilities of a higher level than those currently employed. The aim is to construct relevant, useful descriptions of crystal form and inter-crystal relations in polycrystalline igneous rock sections. Such descriptions cannot be derived until the `ownership' of boundaries between adjacent crystals has been established: this is the fundamental problem of crystal boundary assignment. An analysis of this problem

Abstract:
This is a petrographic study of high-grade gneisses in the Halland area, Sweden. During bedrock mapping by the Swedish Geological Survey, three principal petrographically distinct gneiss domains have been recognized: the Skene, Varberg, and Halmstad domain. The purpose is to compare the petrographic textures and minerals that occur within this area, to determine possible metamorphic differences between the domains. Within this study, the petrographic descriptions will also be compared with technical data made on the gneisses, to evaluate if the gneisses could be used as aggregates, in for exam

The Eastern Kentucky Coal Field is located in the central portion of the Appalachian Basin. The Pennsylvanian Breathitt Formation in this region is characterized by numerous sequences of bituminous coal-bearing sedimentary rocks. These coals have distinct maceral compositions due to variations in depositional environments. Coal characterization is an important method for determining conditions that influenced peat accumulation and overall depositional settings of mires. This study focuses on the characterization of the maceral composition of the Middle Pennsylvanian-age Leatherwood coal bed. I

Although traditional paleomagnetic field tests reveal some of this remagnetization, secondary remanence acquired prior to folding or tilting easily escapes detection.
