Genesis of the Daping Gold Deposit in the Middle Xuefeng Mountain Area, Southern China: Constraints from Geochemistry, Fluid Inclusion, and H-O-S Isotope by Xu Kong, Wen-Tian Mi, Xue-Yuan Qi, Shu-Jun Lǚ, Yu-Jun Dong, Jie Xin

“…The values of δ34S of metal sulfides range from -0.94‰ to 1.98‰ (-0.131‰ in average), implying that sulfur may source from the concealed granite and/or basement metamorphic strata. The Daping gold deposit formed in the Indosinian period under the tectonic environment of compression between the Cathaysian plate and Yangtze plate and may belong to orogenic gold deposits.…”

Research on the deformation mechanism and law caused by the influence of seepage on foundation pit dewatering by Qingyuan Yang, Song Chen

“…It reveals that the precipitation curve outside the foundation pit under the influence of seepage around the foundation pit presents the characteristics, and puts forward the calculation formula of surface settlement change outside the pit caused by partially penetrating well precipitation in the completely decomposed granite stratum. The calculation results of the theoretical formula are in good agreement with the experimental results, which has good accuracy and applicability. (2) The surface settlement outside the pit caused by dewatering in the foundation pit is mainly concentrated in the surrounding seepage area, and the change value of surface settlement outside the pit caused by double well dewatering is 2∼3 times greater than that caused by single well dewatering. …”

Subsurface investigation for pre-foundation study utilizing integrated geophysical and geotechnical methods, UNILORIN campus by Gabriel Efomeh Omolaiye, Abdulhameed Kayode Oniyangi, Taofeeq Ayinde ISSA, Sodiq Bamidele Adam

“…The land magnetic survey was acquired at 20 m spacing along seven traverses with the use of Geometrics G857 Proton Precession Magnetometer revealing the presence of concealed basement contact separating the biotite schist in the north from granite gneiss in the south. The Schlumberger configuration was used for the 1-D vertical electrical sounding (VES) technique, with the current electrode spacing (AB/2) varied between 1 and 100 m, which revealed three to four geo-electric layers which include lateritic/topsoil (93-3053Ωm, 0.3–2.5 m), clayey-sand (127-639Ωm, 1–13.2 m), weathered basement/sandy-clay (55-767Ωm, 3.6–33.3 m), and fresh basement (above 1000Ωm). …”
