In this study, we used field data, Reverse Circulation (RC) surveys and chemical analyzes of gold to determine the characteristics of gold and its mineralization style. The eastern perimeter of Boulon Djounga is represented by a succession of metabasalts and metasediments both intersected by intrusions of quartz and dolerite dykes, and covered by sandstone and clayey rocks. Gold is present in low contents (0.00 - 0.30 ppm) in the sedimentary cover and in medium (0.30 - 1.00 ppm) or high contents (1.00 - 4.534 ppm) in the metasediments, and in the gray quartz veins and locally in the volcanics. It exists in a disseminated state or in a concentrated state in the surrounding areas in the form of discrete grains associated with sulphurous minerals (pyrite: FeS<sub>2</sub>, chalcopyrite: CuFeS<sub>2</sub> or arsenopyrite: FeAsS). The presence of gold in the quartz veins, and the NE-SW and NW-SE orientations of the ore bodies suggest that the eastern Boulon Djounga gold mineralization would be established during a late magmatic extensive phase.展开更多

The mineralization is having variable Pb:Zn ratio and shows lithological preferences. The sphalerite rich pockets are concentrated within the dolostone of older Trikuta Formation while galena rich mineralization occurs in form of veins, lenses and pockets hosted within siliceous varieties of dolostone and quartzite belonging to younger Khairikot Formation. Sulphur isotope geochemistry is reported in the present paper for the sphalerire and galena from the area for first time. Overall?δ34S of sulphides varies from (+9.67‰ to +34.42‰). Sphalerite ores hosted within older Trikuta Formation and younger Khairikot Formation, however, show different?δ34S values. It ranged from +9.67‰ to +10.59‰ for the sphalarite hosted in Trikuta Formation and from +18.38‰ to +34.42‰ for sphalerite hosted within Khairikot Formation. Sulphur isotopic data and ore petrographic data suggest that there is two-generation of sphalerite present in the area.展开更多

The approach adopted was to subject a control asphalt concrete to level 2 formulation tests as well as those modified at 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% by substituting bitumen with a mixture of tyre powder, plastic bottle powder and sulphur at 40%, 28% and 32% respectively. The results of the PCG, Duriez and rutting tests carried out on the control and modified bituminous concretes (manufactured using the wet process) revealed three (03) major findings, in particular with regard to workability, resistance to simple compression and rutting. The experimental results show an increasing trend in the essential parameters. At 40% substitution, there was a 22.73% increase in compactness, reflecting a significant improvement in the material’s workability. With regard to simple compressive strength, the increase is 34.02% at 40% substitution, highlighting the limitation of crack formation and propagation under heavy precipitation. With regard to rutting, the 16% drop in susceptibility at 40% substitution reflects a significant improvement in the behaviour of the material under dynamic mechanical stresses in heavy precipitation. The improvement in these behaviours results from the insertion of the plastic bottle powder into the interstices of the granular skeleton, thus reducing its cellular structure, and also from the interactions between the sulphur with the tyre powder and the sulphur with the plastic bottle powder, i.e. cross-linking or vulcanisation.展开更多

The composite layer is composed of sulfide layer, nitrocarbonide hypo-surface layer and its diffusing layer, the size of sulfide globular grains distributing equably on the surface is in nano-micron-scale, and the phase structure of the composite layer is composed of FeS, FeS1-x, Fe2C and Fe3N. Under oil lubrication, sulphurized surface shows good scuffing-resistance only under low velocity, and nitrocarburized and sulphurized surface greatly improves the scuffing-resistance and wear-resistance of CrMoCu alloy cast iron, its integrated friction and wear properties are better than those of the plain and sulphurized surfaces under all the velocities.展开更多

The solid-liquid reaction system was established and the sulfidation thermodynamics of lead and zinc carbonate was calculated with the software HSC 5.0. The effects of roasting temperature,molar ratio of sulphur to lead and zinc carbonate and reaction time in the first step roasting, and holding temperature and time in the second roasting on the sulfidation extent were studied at a laboratory-scale. The experimental results show that the sulfidation extents of lead and zinc are 96.50% and 97.29% under the optimal conditions, respectively, and the artificial galena, sphalerite and wurtzite were formed. By the novel sulfidizing process, it is expected that the sulphides can be recovered by conventional flotation technology.展开更多

The surface morphology and phase composition of the as-grown film, the KCN-etched film, and the annealed KCN-etched film were investigated. During the sulphurization, the secondary CuxS phase segregated on the surface of the as-grown films. To improve the crystalline quality of CuInS2 films, a series of post-grown treatments, such as KCN-etching and vacuum annealing KCN-etched films, were performed on the as-grown films. Both as-grown and post-treated films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The results indicated that a CuxS secondary phase segregated on the surface of the as-grown film, which could be removed effectively by KCN etching. After the vacuum annealing treatment, the KCN-etched film had a sphalerite structure with (112) preferred orientation. Meanwhile, the crystalline quality of the CIS film was significantly improved, which provided a novel method to improve the performance of thin film solar cells.展开更多

In the process. sulphur-free fuel and tar from the decomposition of coal organic matter was obtained. Hence, the sulphur in the coal was converted inlo hydrogen sulphide. The coal desulphurization process is critical to power generatio n. power generation and technology, and tech no logy field of application. The coal desulphurization process ensures the maximum recovery of the highest content of sulphur and hydrogen sulphide (H2S) in desulphurized gases at minimal energy costs. The process also enhances the maximum decomposition of tar and sulphur recovery (> 50%) during coal power generation. Based on smnniarized field studies, a block schematic diagram coupled with heat and material balances of the process was developed for the calculations. The application of the tech no logy at the first stage of coal combustion in thermal power plants will en able the utilizatio n of over 50% of recovered coal sulphur in the form of concentrated H2S or commercial elemental sulphur. This will, nevertheless, allow for a reduction of sulphur oxide pollution in the environment by at least 53%-56%. It has been suggested that the product of thermal decomposition of coal organic matter (tar) can be used as a componenl of fumace fuel oil or as a plasticizer of petroleum-based road bitumen.展开更多

The results show that the conversion of SO 2 on catalyst prepared directly with carbonized mother liquor could reach to 24.8% at 410?℃. If n (Na)/ n (V) was adjusted properly, the conversion of SO 2 could be increased to 35.6% at 410?℃. Refined carbonized mother liquor could make the catalytic activity even higher at low temperature, the conversion of SO 2 could be increased to 36.65% at 410?℃. The catalyst was examined with differential thermal analysis. It was found that both endothermic peaks and exothermic peaks of catalyst shifted forward obviously and the catalyst possessed higher activity at low temperature.展开更多

The microstructures of deposited metal were analyzed with metalloscope, and then the content of S and P was examined by energy dispenive X-ray spectrometer ( EDXS ), and by wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer for further examination. The results show that the proper addition of La and Y can be beneficial to the desulfurization and dephosphorization of the deposited metal. Certainly, difference in the addition amount of La and Y could lead to various desulfurization and dephosphorization efficiency, in which the former is more obvious than the latter. With the proper amount of La attd Y, there is finer microstructure in deposited metal, and mechanical properties are improved as well. The S content in deposited metal with added La and Y decreases by 44. 44 wt. % , while the P content 6. 67 wt. %, compared with that in deposited metal without La and II.展开更多

文摘Cs Rb V series low temperature sulphuric acid catalyst was prepared for the first time by using carbonized mother liquor containing alkali metal salts. The results show that the conversion of SO 2 on catalyst prepared directly with carbonized mother liquor could reach to 24.8% at 410?℃. If n (Na)/ n (V) was adjusted properly, the conversion of SO 2 could be increased to 35.6% at 410?℃. Refined carbonized mother liquor could make the catalytic activity even higher at low temperature, the conversion of SO 2 could be increased to 36.65% at 410?℃. The catalyst was examined with differential thermal analysis. It was found that both endothermic peaks and exothermic peaks of catalyst shifted forward obviously and the catalyst possessed higher activity at low temperature.
文摘The chemical and electrochemical equilibria in the presence of gaseous phase were investigated. Many substances, which consisted of sulphur and chromium, were considered. Various thermodynamic equilibria were calculated in different pressures. Calculation results were shown as log p-1/T and E-T diagrams. These diagrams may be used to study the corrosion of chromium in sulphur-containing circumstances. The diagrams are also used to thermodynamically determine the existence area of various substances and so on.

文摘In order to reduce sulphur ( S ) and phosphorus ( P ) impurities in deposited metal, a small amount of rare earth (RE) lanthanum ( La) and yttrium (Y) were added into the coating ofE4303 electrode, a low carbon steel electrode. The microstructures of deposited metal were analyzed with metalloscope, and then the content of S and P was examined by energy dispenive X-ray spectrometer ( EDXS ), and by wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer for further examination. The results show that the proper addition of La and Y can be beneficial to the desulfurization and dephosphorization of the deposited metal. Certainly, difference in the addition amount of La and Y could lead to various desulfurization and dephosphorization efficiency, in which the former is more obvious than the latter. With the proper amount of La attd Y, there is finer microstructure in deposited metal, and mechanical properties are improved as well. The S content in deposited metal with added La and Y decreases by 44. 44 wt. % , while the P content 6. 67 wt. %, compared with that in deposited metal without La and II.
