Abstract:
The Konawe region is part of the Sulawesi Southeast Arm ophiolite belt where ultramafic rocks are exposed in the form of dunite and peridotite. The formation of nickel deposits is closely related to the weathering process of ultramafic rocks as a source rock. Ultramafic rocks exposed to the surface will experience weathering which is influenced by many factors, including in the form of climate change, topography, and existing geological structures.
 The weathering process in the source rock can influence variations in chemical elements and magnetic properties in laterite soil profiles. Fo

Abstract Suprasubduction zone (SSZ) ophiolites of the northern Appalachians (eastern North America) have provided key constraints on the fundamental tectonic processes responsible for the evolution of the Appalachian orogen. The central and southern Appalachians, which extend from southern New York to Alabama (USA), also contain numerous ultramafic-mafic bodies that have been interpreted as ophiolite fragments; however, this interpretation is a matter of debate, with the origin(s) of such occurrences also attributed to layered intrusions.

The research area is located in Asera District, North Konawe Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province which has ultramafic rock lithology. The purpose of this study is to determine the characteristics of ultramafic igneous rocks using petrographic and geochemical analysis. Petrographic analysis aims to determine the types and abundance of minerals present so that rock types can be determined based on the classification of Travis (1955) and Streckeisen (1976). The geochemical analysis aims to determine the oxide/major element so that it can determine the type of magma based on the AFM classificatio

Although previously considered to be kimberlitic, all these rocks contain olivine + clinopyroxene + phlogopite ± melilite, and hence are ultramafic alkaline rocks. The ultramafic lamprophyre can be distinguished from the dike by its lower SiO2, Na2O, Al2O3, and higher MgO and FeO.

Abstract:
Mafic and ultramafic rocks have become a promising approach for atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction, as they are major sources of CO2-reactive minerals, i.e., olivine, pyroxene, plagioclase, and serpentine. The minerals potentially sequester CO2 by turning it into a stable solid phase through carbon mineralization in the rock weathering process. However, detailed descriptions and evaluations of the target formations are lacking.

Based on the analysis of specific actual and analytical material capabilities and perspectives of petrographic and petrological investigations of kimberlite rocks are indicated.

Mantle material in kimberlite is represented by xenoliths of ultramafic, alkali-rich mafic-ultramafic rocks and xeno-minerals from them.

ABSTRACT Mineral carbon storage in mafic and ultramafic rocks is a novel concept for CO2 sequestration. In contrast to carbon sequestration in sedimentary formations, where structural and residual trappings are the primary mechanisms of storage, solubility and mineral trappings are expected to be the dominant storage mechanisms in mafic and ultramafic rocks. Mafic and ultramafic rocks are rich in calcium, magnesium and iron. Mineral carbonation occurs when these rocks are exposed to an environment with CO2 and water.

ABSTRACT: Ultramafic rocks play an active role in geologic processes including the carbon cycle and serpentinization reactions. Many of these processes accompany mineral transformations that result in volume increase of the product phase (e.g. serpentinization, carbonation). Accommodation of changes in volume is often associated with formation of fracture surfaces as new minerals form. Thus, fracture properties such as tensile strength or fracture toughness are of interest in analyses of volumetric deformation during mineral replacement. Cores extracted from Oman ophiolite were used to measure

Abstract:
ABSTRACT: Carbon mineralization in mafic and ultramafic rocks has emerged as a highly promising method for permanent CO2 sequestration. It is hypothesized that stress concentration, caused by the volume expansion and mineral transformation during carbonation, can cause damage and create new fractures. To evaluate the stress generated during this process, we conducted one-week carbonation experiments on millimeter-sized natural olivine grains in a high-pressure batch reactor (139 atm) at 185°C, using aqueous CO2 and a solution of NaHCO3 and NaCl. Our experimental results indicate distinct spati

Abstract:
Abstract The serpentinization of the mafic and ultramafic rocks is one of the most significant mechanisms for producing natural hydrogen in the subsurface. The northern part of Borneo is notable for its complex regional geology, particularly regarding Fe-rich rocks in the ophiolite zone of Sabah. This article discusses the mineralogy of ophiolites in Sabah, which could lead to the natural hydrogen feasibility via serpentinization processes. Fieldworks were conducted in selected outcrops in order to investigate the presence of ophiolites, standard petrography and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analyse

Abstract:
Abstract The global energy transition effort is focused on decarbonization and greener sources of energy, of which hydrogen is an example. Geologic H2 production via the serpentinization reaction has emerged as an active research area with many open questions. Serpentinization refers to the oxidation of ferrous ions into ferric ions in iron-rich rocks, e.g., olivine, which releases hydrogen. Exothermicity and volumetric expansion associated with the reaction can have positive or negative feedback on the rock’s H2 generation potential. Here, we unravel such mechanisms at the core-scale via acou

Abstract:
West-central Yukon and eastern Alaska are characterized by widespread metamorphic rocks that form part of the allochthonous, composite Yukon-Tanana terrane and parautochthonous North American margin. Structural windows through the Yukon-Tanana terrane expose parautochthonous North American margin in that broad region, particularly as mid-Cretaceous extensional core complexes. Both the Yukon-Tanana terrane and parautochthonous North American margin share the same Late Devonian history, making their discrimination difficult; however, distinct post-Late Devonian magmatic and metamorphic histories
