Anthropogenic Geology and the Role of Public Sector Organisations
Published 2024-12-01“…Anthropogenic geology (AG) is the study of geological materials and morphologies created, reshaped, or otherwise modified by humans and human activity. Geologists and geological surveys need to include anthropogenically created geology into their science discipline to sustainably resource classify human-made deposits driven by socioeconomic models rather than natural forces. …”

Cataloging minerals, part 1: The categories of colonialism and extraction
Published 2024-12-01“…We examine how colonial ideologies of land and people become entrenched in mineral cataloging practices, and how this reinforces the ways geologists think about their work. We argue that revising mineral cataloging practices is a necessary first step – both practically and epistemically – toward addressing histories of violence in our mineral collections and the science of geology as a whole. …”

Hydrothermal Dissolution of Deeply Buried Cambrian Dolomite Rocks and Porosity Generation: Integrated with Geological Studies and Reactive Transport Modeling in the Tarim Basin, Ch...
Published 2017-01-01“…The burial dissolution of carbonate rocks has long been an interesting topic of reservoir geologists. Integrated with geological studies and reactive transport modeling, this study investigated the Cambrian dolomites that were buried at depths up to 8408 m and still preserved a large amount of unfilled dissolution vugs from the borehole TS1 in the northern Tarim Basin. …”

A comparative study of interpolation methods for the development of ore distribution maps
Published 2025-01-01“…This is hard to establish as exploration operations, which are costly, time-consuming and require an accurate description of the deposit. Geologists use deterministic and geostatistical methods as interpolation tools to generate a continuous (or prediction) ore distribution map from known sampled data. …”

Characterization Method of Tight Sandstone Reservoir Heterogeneity and Tight Gas Accumulation Mechanism, Jurassic Formation, Sichuan Basin, China
Published 2022-01-01“…Based on this parameter, petroleum geologists can understand the interlayer heterogeneity during fluvial deposition and predict the sweet spots of tight gas; (2) the permeability ratio relationship between hydrocarbon accumulation of the tight sandstone reservoir mainly manifests as long as there is the existence of the differential permeability and there will be differences in natural gas migration dynamics, so that the natural gas accumulates in pores and depends on the extent of source rock; and (3) although the difference between capillary force curves is at the core of the influence of the permeability ratio on the gas-bearing capacity of the “sweet spot” sand body, the permeability ratio is a parameter of practical engineering significance. …”
