Vorwort: Das Schaumburger Land, von den Rehburger Bergen bis ins Wesergebirge, ist reich an Bodenschätzen. Seit mehr als 600 Jahren prägte daher der Bergbau in Schaumburg nicht nur die Landschaft; er war zeitweise auch von erheblicher Bedeutung für das Leben zahlreicher Familien. So gab es u. a. Gesteins-, Ton-, Salz- und vor allem Kohleabbau. Heute werden nur noch (bei Obernkirchen und Steinbergen) Steine gebrochen.

  • Geometry of the Butterknowle Fault at Bishop Auckland (County Durham, UK), from Gravity Survey and Structural Inversion
    ESSOAr | https:/doi.org/10.1002/essoar.10501104.1 | CC_BY_NC_ND_4.0 | First posted online: Mon, 11 Nov 2019 01:27:37 | This content has not been peer reviewed. Geometry of the Butterknowle Fault at Bishop Auckland (County Durham, UK), from gravity survey and structural inversion Rob Westaway 1,*, Sean M. Watson 1, Aaron Williams 1, Tom L. Harley 2, and Richard Middlemiss 3 1 James Watt School of Engineering, University of Glasgow, James Watt (South) Building, Glasgow G12 8QQ, UK. 2 WSP, 70 Chancery Lane, London WC2A 1AF, UK. 3 School of Physics, University of Glasgow, Kelvin Building, Glasgow G12 8QQ, UK. * Correspondence: [email protected]; Abstract: The Butterknowle Fault is a major normal fault of Dinantian age in northern England, bounding the Stainmore Basin and the Alston Block. This fault zone has been proposed as a source of deep geothermal energy; to facilitate the design of a geothermal project in the town of Bishop Auckland further investigation of its geometry was necessary and led to the present study. We show using three-dimensional modelling of a dense local gravity survey, combined with structural inversion, that this fault has a ramp-flat-ramp geometry, ~250 m of latest Carboniferous / Early Permian downthrow having occurred on a fault surface that is not a planar updip continuation of that which had accommodated the many kilometres of Dinantian extension. The gravity survey also reveals relatively low-density sediments in the hanging-wall of the Dinantian fault, interpreted as porous alluvial fan deposits, indicating that a favourable geothermal target indeed exists in the area.

  • The Myth of the Standard Gauge

(U.Qld.) DEPARTMENT OF ACCOUNTING, FINANCE & ECONOMICS GRIFFITH BUSINESS SCHOOL GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2006 ii ABSTRACT This thesis describes the rail gauge decision-making processes of the Australian colonies in the period 1850 – 1901. Federation in 1901 delivered a national system of railways to Australia but not a national railway system. Thus the so-called “standard” gauge of 4ft. 8½in. had not become the standard in Australia at Federation in 1901, and has still not. It was found that previous studies did not examine cause and effect in the making of rail gauge choices. This study has done so, and found that rail gauge choice decisions in the period 1850 to 1901 were not merely one-off events. Rather, those choices were part of a search over fifty years by government representatives seeking colonial identity/autonomy and/or platforms for election/re-election. Consistent with this interpretation of the history of rail gauge choice in the Australian colonies, no case was found where rail gauge choice was a function of the disciplined search for the best value-for-money option.

H., HEINKE, A., HEUNISCH, C., LINDERT, W. & WIESE, T. „Unter Original wird im folgenden jedes Stück verstanden, das in der Literatur abgebildet ist.“ (P. DIENST 1928) Wissenschaftliche Originale gehören zu den wertvollsten Stücken jeder Sammlung. Ein erheblicher Anteil der Nutzeranfragen gilt ihnen. Die Orginale-Sammlungen der Bundesanstalt für Geowissenschaften und Rohstoffe (BGR) in Hannover und Berlin sowie des Landesamtes für Bergbau, Energie und Geologie (LBEG), Hannover, sind zwar zum heutigen Zeitpunkt weitestgehend erfaßt - davon auch große Teile DV- mäßig - und damit gut recherchierbar, es fehlte jedoch bisher eine aktuelle Literaturübersicht für die interessierte Fachwelt. Mit dem vorliegenden Schriftenverzeichnis wird diese Lücke geschlossen. Die Originale-Sammlungen in Hannover und Berlin sind nicht nur räumlich getrennt, auch ihr historischer Hintergrund, ihre Quellen und die Art der Katalogisierung sind verschieden. Geschichtliches Im Jahr 1873 wurde in Berlin die Königlich-Preußische Geologische Landesanstalt gegründet, die 1939 in der Reichsstelle für Bodenforschung (ab 1941 Reichsamt für Bodenforschung) aufging. Nach Gründung der Bundesrepublik Deutschland wurden die Bundesaufgaben zunächst dem Amt für Bodenforschung in Hannover übertragen. 1958 wurde die Bundesanstalt für Bodenforschung (ab 1975 Bundesanstalt für Geowissenschaften und Rohstoffe, BGR) aus dem Bestand des Amtes für Bodenforschung errichtet. Die BGR arbeitet auf der Grundlage eines Verwaltungsabkommens eng mit dem Landesamtes für Bergbau, Energie und Geologie (LBEG) zusammen.

  • The Way of Life Route Gainford To
    Northern Saints Trails The Way of Life Gainford to Durham Introduction This guide gives directions for travelling The Way of Life from Gainford to Durham. All the Northern Saints Trails use the same waymark shown on the left. The total distance is 47 kilometres or 29 miles. I have divided the route into 4 sections between 11 and 14 kilometres. This pilgrimage route, along with the Ways of Love, Light and Learning, all lead to the shrine of St Cuthbert in Durham. This route would have been the closest to St Cuthbert’s final journey in his coffin from Ripon to Durham in 995. He had died over 300 years earlier, but the monks who carried that coffin believed that by his spirit he continued to be alive and to guide them. This is why this route is called the Way of Life. Water is a symbol of life, so it is appropriate that the route begins by a well and a river. Section 1 Gainford to West Auckland – 11km Gainford Gainford is an ancient site. There was a Saxon church here in the 8th century.
