Changing Characteristics of Sandstone Pore Size under Cyclic Loading by Jiaguang Kan, Guichen Li, Nong Zhang, Peng Wang, Changliang Han, Shun Wang

“…Under 10–20 MPa load, the large-pore spectral peak moves right and increases in area as pressure increases. (3) Under the applied 0–10 MPa load, the porosity of water-saturated sandstone gradually decreases, and the sandstone NMR images darken with increasing load. The porosity of saturated sandstone gradually increases under 10–20 MPa pressure, and its NMR image brightens. (4) The number of small pore throats increases with increasing load, but the number of large- and medium-sized pore throats decreases. …”

Fluid Inclusion and Oxygen Isotope Constraints on the Origin and Hydrothermal Evolution of the Haisugou Porphyry Mo Deposit in the Northern Xilamulun District, NE China by Qihai Shu, Yong Lai

“…Based on alteration and mineralization styles and crosscutting relationships, the hydrothermal evolution in Haisugou can be divided into three stages: an early potassic alteration stage with no significant metal deposition, a synmineralization sericite-chlorite alteration stage with extensive Mo precipitation, and a postmineralization stage characterized by barren quartz and minor calcite and fluorite. The coexistence of high-salinity brine inclusions with low-salinity inclusions both in potassic alteration stage (~440°C) and locally in the early time of mineralization stage (380–320°C) indicates the occurrence of fluid boiling. …”
