Zircon crystal morphology within the syenogranitic dykes allows precise definition of sub-alkaline series granites and crystallized at mean temperature of about 637 °C. The growth pattern of the zircons suggest magmatic and hydrothermal origins of radioactive mineralization. Hydrothermal processes are responsible for the formation of significant zircon overgrowth; high U-zircon margins might have occurred contemporaneously with the emplacement of syenogranitic dykes which show anomalous uranium(e U) and thorium(e Th) contents of up to 1386 and 7330 ppm, respectively.Zircon chemistry revealed a relative increase of Hf consistent with decreasing Zr content, suggesting the replacement of Zr by Hf during hydrothermal activity.Visible uranium mineralization is present and recognized by the presence of uranophane and autunite.展开更多

Based on theological theory, we discuss surface deformation mechanism of dynamic subsidence on the assumption that both the roof and the coal seam are visco-elastic media, put forward the idea that the principle of surface deformation is similar to that of roofs, except for their parameters. Therefore, a surface deforma- tion equation can be obtained, given the equation of the roof deformation derived.from using a HIM rhe- ological model. In the end, we apply the equation of surface deformation as a practical subsidence prediction in a coal mine. Given the theologic properties of a rock mass, the results of our research of a dynamic subsidence basin can predict the development of surface deformation as a function of time, which is more important than the ultimate subsidence itself. The results indicate that using rheological theory to calculate the deformation of a dynamic subsidence basin is suitable and provides some reference for surface deformation of dynamic subsidence basins.展开更多

The nanowires have been confirmed as crystalline wurtzite GaN by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectrometry scanning electron microscope and selected-area electron diffraction. Transmission electron microscope(TEM) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) reveal that the nanowires are amorphous and irregular, with diameters ranging from 30 nm to 80 nm and lengths up to tens of microns. Selected-area electron diffraction indicates that the nanowire with the hexagonal wurtzite structure is the single crystalline. The growth mechanism is discussed briefly.展开更多

Temperature ranges from 1050°C of fluid-melting inclusion to 150°C of liquid inclusion. Away from intrusion, the inclusions of orebodies intend to be characterized by simpler type, lower temperature and lower salinity, as well as weakened relation to intrusion. The metallization of the Huanggangliang deposit is characterized by multiple activities of ore-forming fluid, multi-source, multi-stage accumulation of ore-forming material, F-rich environment, enrichment of F, organic gas, CO2 and N2, and involving of residual magma.展开更多

Either the shape or the size of the nanocrystals could be easily controlled. Both the phases and nanostructures have been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction patterns and electron microscopy. The magnetic and catalytic properties of these products were investigated and compared with each other. The obtained results clearly demonstrate that these iron oxide nanocrystals are soft ferromagnetic at room temperature and α-Fe2O3 has a more effective catalytic property on the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate than Fe3O4. Based on the experimental data, it is proposed that the magnetic and catalytic properties of these nanocrystals are dependent not only on the size and shape, but also on the surface structure of the nanocrystals. The nanoplates with significant anisotropic nanostructure demonstrate a highly enhanced performance as compared to nanoparticles.展开更多
