This study revealed the existence of an almandine-rich end-member garnet that yielded a PyrAlSpite group (pyrope, almandine, and spessartine) in the study area. Furthermore, the tourmaline grains belong to the alkali and calcic groups which are dominantly composed of dravitic and magnesio-foititic (uvite) tourmaline compositions. High Mg/Fe and Na/Ca ratios indicate medium to high-grade metamorphic source rock derivatives. The integration of garnet and tourmaline data and different binary and ternary discriminant plots show that the precise source rocks of the rift-related sedimentary formations of the Campanian-Maastrichtian, Anambra Basin, Nigeria in the study area were mostly from medium to high-grade basement rocks consisting of andesite, mica-schists, chlorite schists, amphibolites, marble, quartzite, gneisses, metabasic-subophiolitic, granulitic, rhylotic, and aplitic facies and minorly low-grade metasedimentary rocks associated with metacherts, blue-schists, metapelites, phyllites, marbles, and metapsammites. The paleocurrent interpretation reveals that the sandstones were derived from the tectonically restricted Nigerian Precambrian Pan-African Basement Complex and uplifted Benue Trough.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101084,"journal":{"name":"Results in Earth Sciences","volume":"3 ","pages":"Article 100065"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143444821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 1965, Bangarapete indicated an extreme drought with a 65.2 % rainfall deviation rate. Two particularly dry years have been detected in Gudibande 1981 (-72.5 %) and 1983 (-87.0 %).

China controls the REEs market globally, and this global dependency has created political insecurity and concerns regarding the stability of the REE market. Carbonatite and Per-alkaline rocks are the conventional sources of REEs, but their worldwide abundance is minimal. Coal, for instance, consists of organic and inorganic components, with the inorganic part associated with the most REEs, such as ash, having minimal utilization and posing challenges. Extracting REEs from coal ash allows one to convert waste into a valuable resource, aligning with the concept of \"waste to wealth.\" Traditional REEs extraction methods involve harsh acids, posing significant risks to environmental and living organisms. Therefore, there is an urgent need to explore innovative and sustainable extraction methods for REEs, particularly utilizing non-conventional sources. To achieve this, it is necessary to develop equipment that can be installed in thermal power plants during the final stage of thermal processing, enabling the extraction of REEs from the same plants to make the thermal plants more beneficial and add value to already running thermal plants. Finally, it mitigates groundwater, soil leaching, and atmospheric pollution associated with the presence of these elements in coal ash. By successfully extracting REEs from ash, the profitability of the thermal industry can be enhanced as it transforms thermal plants from operating at marginal profits to generating additional revenue streams.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101084,"journal":{"name":"Results in Earth Sciences","volume":"3 ","pages":"Article 100064"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143226484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An experiment was carried out on a small (centimetre scale) physical model of the EBS based on the design of the nuclear waste repository proposed by different studies. Temperature distribution within the physical model of the engineered barrier system has been recorded. Investigation of temperature evolution has been conducted in compacted bentonite at three different moisture contents: 10 %, 20 %, and 30 %. The temperature profile was recorded in the radial and lateral directions around the cylindrical heater with different moisture contents. A numerical model has also been developed to assess temperature evolution in radial and longitudinal directions at different moisture content in compacted bentonite. In the radial direction, the maximum temperature in the physical model at monitoring points reaches up to 71 °C 78°C and 79°C for moisture content of 10 %, 20 % and 30 %, respectively. Numerical simulation of the 3-dimensional model gives the maximum temperature of 61 °C, 68.6°C and 69.1°C, respectively, at a 10 %, 20 % and 30 % moisture level. Experimental results show that the maximum temperature developed in the longitudinal direction reaches up to 47°C, 53°C, and 56°C at monitoring points within bentonite having a moisture content of 10 %, 20 %, and 30 %, respectively. Temperatures obtained at a similar point through numerical simulation are 43°C, 47°C, and 53°C for moisture content of 10 %, 20 %, and 30 %, respectively.

This study explores the hypothesis that seismic anisotropy and wave resonances can help to reduce uncertainties in fracture and fault detection, particularly in the Noto Peninsula. Seismic data from KiK-net stations ISKH06 and ISKH04 are analyzed using deconvolution and empirical mode decomposition (EMD) to identify wave patterns possibly related to fluid flow and crack propagation. The ISKH06 and ISKH04 stations have boreholes equipped with triaxial accelerometers at depths of 200 m and 100 m, respectively, as well as at the surface. Deconvolution of seismic events recorded at the surface and at depth helps identify anisotropic layers. To interpret interferograms, the study utilizes a one-dimensional layered medium, empirical mode decomposition, and an orthorhombic model. Genuine resonances or tremors are identified mainly along: a) directions subparallel to horizontal stress orientations, and b) directions that traverse intersecting fractures. This study can significantly impact the fields of resource exploration and production, and earthquake preparedness, by providing strategies to mitigate the uncertainties in the detection of subsurface fractures and faults, ultimately leading to better resource management, improved characterization of fluid mobility, and enhanced seismic hazard assessments.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101084,"journal":{"name":"Results in Earth Sciences","volume":"3 ","pages":"Article 100063"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143159802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Utilizing a coupled thermo-poroelastic model, the research investigates the influence of varying drilling fluid pressure and temperature on wellbore stresses in the Bangestan Reservoir in SW Iran. The analysis employs Hoek-Brown's law, continuity equation, Darcy's law, compatibility equation, and thermal relations, solved using the finite element method within a complex geological model. The findings reveal that horizontal wells are more stable than other configurations, with a pressure limit of 57.23 MPa required to maintain stability. Additionally, a 55–60° azimuth demonstrates the highest mud limit among horizontal wells, while a 20° contrast is observed between formation temperature and drilling fluid in the optimal azimuth.
