The results showed that: (1) The relationship among in vivo cytotoxicity, interleukin-1 release,fibrogenic effects on the lung induced by mineral dusts correlated well with the free SiO2content in mineral dusts in most (but not all) cases; (2) The biological harmful effects of mixed dusts were not simply the additive effect of single dust. In the group of WO3-SiO2mixture, the fibrogenicity was mainly due to SiO2, tungsten trioxide (WO3) showed neither fibrogenic effect, nor significant potentiality to enhance SiO2 fibrogenicity, while in the group of SnO2-SiO2, SnO2 was suppressive to the effect of SiO2, although the contents of SiO2 in the two mixed dusts were similar展开更多

Matrix effect related studies are especially important during in-situ U- Pb dating based on Laser Ablation Multiple Collector Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (LA-MC- ICPMS). However, to our knowledge, only few thorough and systematical matrix effect study of U-bearing oxide minerals has been reported. In this study, we systematically analyzed the matrix effect of U-bearing oxide minerals in order to take place the standards which are difficult to prepare with available standards.展开更多

The results show that the apatites,zircons and biotites of different geneses possess different fingerprint characteristics. Some correlations havebeen found between trace elements and volatile components contained in the minerals from granties.展开更多

They are mainly Cuarsenate minerals with subordinate Cu-Pb arsenate minerals and minor Fe-Pb-Ba varieties. Based on their paragenesis these minerals may be divided into the following series: (1) the clinoclasite-olivenite-cornwallite- cornubite- debaoite- copper silicarsenate association, (2) the scorodite- carminite- beudan-tite-bayldonite- duftite association, and (3) the scorodite-Ba-bearing pharmacosiderite- dussertite association. Arsenate minerals are formed generally in the oxidized zone of the sulfide-type deposits which lie in thewarm, humid and rainy torrid-subtropical zone with pH=6-8 and contain large amounts of arsenopyrite andcarbonate rocks.展开更多
