Improvement of calcareous expansive soils in semi-arid environments

The semi-arid climate and geology of Cyprus have caused the formation of calcareous expansive soils on the island. In some areas, swelling has caused serious foundation problems. The industrial by-product Soma fly ash has been used to improve the engineering properties of the soil. Fly ash treatment has shown tremendous potential as an economical method for the stabilization of the soil. Significant reduction in the swell potential and an increase in the hydraulic conductivity values are obtained. Use of fly ash with a small percentage of lime produces even more dramatic results. Cation exchange capacity (CEC) values substantiate the formation of the new pozzolanic reaction minerals which result in more stable silt-sand like structures.     

吉林东部延吉地区中生代火山岩地球化学特征

吉林东部延吉地区大面积出露的中生代火山岩,根据岩性特征可分为三个火山喷发旋回。各旋回火山岩均属ＳｉＯ２过饱和的中基性—中酸性岩类。从第一旋回至第三旋回岩石碱度变化较大,岩浆分异明显,特别是第三旋回分异作用明显高于第一、二旋回。火山岩中金、铜微量元素的平均含量普遍高于同类岩石的克拉克值几倍至几十倍,而且随着岩浆分异程度的升高,其平均含量有明显升高的趋势,为本区金、铜矿床的形成提供了物质来源。

羌塘东部治多县索加一带甲丕拉组火山岩特征及其构造环境

羌塘东部治多县索加南一带在大地构造上属东特提斯构造域,处于金沙江缝合带与龙木错-澜沧江缝合带之间的昌都地块中部,广泛分布以海相为主的晚三叠世地层.其中的甲丕拉组火山岩主要由碱性玄武岩、粗面安山岩组成的一套中基性岩石,岩石化学表现为表现为低TiO2(<1%),高Al,稀土元素特征表现为轻稀土元素富集.在微量元素地球化学方面,表现为富集大离子亲石元素,亏损高场强元素,εNo(t)变化在-2.2～-2.4之间,εSr(t)变化在42.6～53.4之间,表现为弧火山岩特征.据此认为该火山岩是拉竹龙-金沙江洋盆(或甘孜-理塘洋)向南消减的产物.
