  • The Use of Raman Spectroscopy in the Characterization of Variscite Provenance: the Gavà Case
    Chapitre III : Apport des méthodes d’analyses à l’étude de la diffusion des productions The use of Raman spectroscopy in the characterization of variscite provenance: the Gavà case Joan Carlos Melgarejo, Laia Arqués, Cristina Villanova-de-Benavent, Tariq Jahwari, Lisard Torró, Josep Bosch Argilagós, Montgarri Castillo-Oliver, Marc Campeny, Sandra Amores, Aleu Andreazini, Saleh Lehbib, Antoni Camprubí Abstract. The Gavà phosphate deposit, mined during the Neolithic, was produced by weathering processes affecting primary apatite beds. It exhibits a neat vertical zoning, related to chemical gradients during weathering. Strengite, yellowish Al-rich strengite and ferroan variscite are found at the top, pale- green variscite at the intermediate levels, and green variscite in depth. Fe values are very low in the greenish samples, as well as Cr and V. Raman spectrums of the Gavà variscite show differences with samples from other occurrences worldwide. Moreover, some spectral differences can also be observed in the Raman spectra of variscite coming from different depths in the deposit. Raman spectroscopy can be an efficient tool to discriminate not only samples from different geographical localities, but also from its original position in a given deposit. Key-words: variscite, Raman, microprobe, veins, supergene. Résumé. Le gîte de phosphates de Gavà, exploité au Néolithique, s’est formé par des processus de météorisation qui auraient affecté des strates primaires d’apatite. Ce gîte a une zonation chimique verticale, qui aurait été produite par des gradations chimiques lors de la météorisation. La partie haute du gîte contient de la strengite, de l’Al-strengite et de la Fe-variscite jaunâtres ; les niveaux intermédiaires contiennent de la variscite verdâtre et les niveaux plus profonds, de la variscite verte.

  • Turquoise: the Cerrillos Mineral Gem
    A Living History Museum Turquoise: The Cerrillos Mineral Gem The mines of Cerrillos, New Mexico produce a particularly beautiful blue/ green variety of turquoise, so stunning in fact that they have been mined for roughly the last 3,000 years! Chemically, it is a phosphate of aluminum carrying small quantities of copper and iron and a green mineral, variscite. These give the gemstone its color as well as its value and beauty. This is the only phosphate that is considered a precious stone. Ancestral Puebloans first started mining the Cerrillos hills circa 900 BCE, and it’s been mined ever since. This “gem” of a mineral has been found across the state, and archaeological evidence shows it’s been mined and fashioned into ornaments and jewelry for centuries, with remnants found at one of the most ancient sites in the state, Chetro Ketl at Chaco Canyon. Southwest indigenous groups call turquoise chalchihuitl, as did the ancient peoples of Mexico and Central America who used the same word to describe jade or green turquoise. One of the hills still being mined in Cerrillos still bears the name, Mount Chalchihuitl. Combined with shell and coral from the California coast acquired in trade, turquoise jewelry itself became a valued commodity. Spanish settlers didn’t have much interest in turquoise as they were looking for what they considered a more important prize, namely gold and silver. In fact, outside of local indigenous groups, other cultural groups weren’t much interested in it and it didn’t really gain popularity with the American cultural at large until the 1890s.

  • VARISCITE (Alpo4·2H2O) from CIOCLOVINA CAVE (ŞUREANU MOUNTAINS, ROMANIA): a TALE of a MISSING PHOSPHATE
    STUDIA UNIVERSITATIS BABEŞ-BOLYAI, GEOLOGIA, XLIX, 1, 2004, 3-14 VARISCITE (AlPO4·2H2O) FROM CIOCLOVINA CAVE (ŞUREANU MOUNTAINS, ROMANIA): A TALE OF A MISSING PHOSPHATE BOGDAN P. ONAC1, JOE KEARNS2, RADU BREBAN3, SIMONA CÎNTĂ PÂNZARU4 ABSTRACT. Recent investigations on a phosphatized sediment sequence in the Cioclovina Cave led to the identification of a second occurrence in Romania (first time in the cave environment) of variscite, AlPO4·2H2O. The mineral exists as dull- white, tiny crusts and veinlets within the thick argillaceous material accumulated on the cave floor. Under scanning electron microscope (SEM) variscite appears as subhedral to euhedral micron-size crystals. The {111} pseudo-octahedral form is rather common. Variscite was further characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, thermal, vibrational FT-IR and FT-Raman spectroscopy, and by SEM energy- dispersive spectrometry (EDS). The calculated orthorhombic cell parameters are a = 9.823(4), b = 8.562(9), c = 9.620(5) Å, and V = 809.167(6) Å3. The ED spectrum of variscite shows well-resolved Al and P lines confirming thus the presence of the major elements in our compound. The formation of variscite is attributed to the reaction between the phosphate-rich leachates derived from guano and the underlying clay sediments. Keywords: phosphate minerals, variscite, Cioclovina Cave, Romania. GENERAL DATA The Cioclovina Cave is located 40 km southeast of the city of Hunedoara, in the west-southwest side of Şureanu Mountains, Romania (Fig. 1, inset), at an altitude of 770 m asl. The investigated part of the cave develops in reef limestone of Lower Cretaceous age (Stilla, 1981; Pop et al., 1985).

After serving in the U.S. Marines, graduating from the University of Illinois and again working for Chicago Miniature Lamps, James Carley started his first company in Los Angeles, California in 1960. James Carley 1960 Lamps Inc. Los Angeles Miniature Products or LAMPS quickly gained a reputation for building high quality miniature lamps exactly to customer specifications. LAMPS’ reputation continued to grow as NASA chose James Carley to build To maintain its technical excellence in the special miniature lamps for the Apollo Space miniature lamps industry and continue to Shot, Voyager Probe and most recently the develop the company, James Carley expanded Space Shuttle. Carley Lamps enjoyed rapid Carley Lamps’ product range and introduced growth and success in the Aerospace industry high intensity miniature lamps to the flashlight in the 1970s & 80s. industry in early 1980. Today, in 1999, professional police, firefighters and special forces prefer and request Carley lamps for their flashlights and weapons mounted illumination systems. Carley Lamps is the largest producer of quality flashlight lamps in the world. In early 1990 Carley Lamps was approached to develop a high intensity medical lamp for a hand held Fiber Optic Laryngoscope. Curtis Carley, Carley Lamps Vice President developed and Craig, James, Curt and Suzy Carley patented the Mediflector® brand medical lamp. 1999 Carley Lamps Inc. The Mediflector® medical lamp incorporates a miniature reflector around a high intensity gas filled lamp. The fiber optic industry has been quick to capitalize on the performance of the Mediflector® and over the past nine years Carley has experienced intense growth in the Medical Illumination field.

  • Final Report for Comprehensive Study on International Practice on Phasing out Energy Inefficient Incandescent Lamps
    Final Report For Comprehensive Study on International Practice on Phasing Out Energy Inefficient Incandescent Lamps Prepared by November 2009 EEExxxeeecccuuutttiiivvveee SSSuuummmmmmaaarrryyy � 1. As part of the Government’s ongoing efforts to promote efficient use and conservation of energy, the Government would like to keep track of the recent worldwide development on phasing out of inefficient incandescent lamps and switching to more energy efficient ones so as to reduce carbon emissions. The Government commissioned Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC) to carry out comprehensive fact-finding study to benchmark the overseas practices and the various options adopted in phasing out of energy inefficient incandescent lamps as well as the practices and approaches in the phasing out schemes of these overseas countries; and the availability of viable and efficient alternatives for different categories of incandescent lamps. This report details the findings of the study and provides an overview of the different phasing out schemes developed by various countries. It should be noted that as the phasing out schemes of overseas countries are still evolving, this report provides a snap-shot of the information available at the time the report is prepared. 2. Incandescent lamps are commonly classified in accordance with their functional and technological characteristics. The functional classification for incandescent lamps is based on whether the lumen output is non-directional or directional. They are commonly named as non-reflector type lamps (or called non-directional lamps) and reflector type lamps (or called directional lamps). On the other hand, the technical classification is based on the in-fill gas types of the incandescent lamps and operating voltage of the lamps.
