A major aim of this programme was to increase the E.C. potential for self-supply of a number of mineral raw materials, prin• cipally non-ferrous metals. The main research areas were: (1) Exploration, with emphasis both on economic geology and on the improvement of geochemical, geo• physical and remote sensing techniques; (2) ore processing, and (3) mining technology. In keeping with the orientation of this journal, the papers presented here concern the geology and geochemistry of ore-bearing formations, problems of ore genesis and potential applications to prospecting. Although they do not cover the entire range of research activities that have been sponsored by the E.C. in these particular fields, they do highlight a number of topics of great interest to economic geologists: - Investigations on fluid inclusions in granites and other rocks - Stable isotope studies - Geochemical proximity indicators for massive sulphide deposits - Trace element patterns in black shales and carbonates - The origin of base-metal vein-type deposits in carbonates - A statistical multivariable approach to regional prospecting - Diagenesis in red beds and its bearing on mineralizing processes More papers on these and other themes may follow in subsequent regular issues of the journal. On behalf of the Commission, I wish to thank the president of the Society for Geology Applied to Mineral Deposits as well as the editors of Mineraliwn Deposita for their invaluable assistance in preparing this special issue. May , I also express the hope that this is but a first step, a first experiment which will be continued and perhaps amplified upon the completion of the new Raw Materials programme sponsored by the E.C. for the period 1982-1985.

Dillen2 1 Laboratoires associés de Géologie, Pétrologie et Géochimie, Université de Liège, Sart Tilman, Belgique 2 Département Scheikunde, Universitaire Instelling Antwerpen, Wilrijk, Belgie Fe-sulfides associated with Belgian Pb-Zn vein deposits have been analysed by DC arc spectrometry and XRF for Tl, Ni, Co, Mn, Zn, Pb, Ge, Cd, and As. They show high Tl contents (from >30 ppm upt to 6800 ppm) and Co:Ni ratios <1. These features permit to distinguish them from Fe-sulfides of sedimentary and high temperature occurrences. The Tl distribution in a botryoidal marcasite of Vedrin (average Tl content of 0.68%) has been investigated by ion microprobe. It displays a pattern similar to colloform texture. Principal component analysis shows that the behaviour of Tl is partly controlled by a factor opposing Tl to all other elements. This is interpreted as reflecting the influence of sorption mechanisms by contrast with direct precipitation. Tl and the other elements are not considered of magmatic origin because no acidic magmatism is known during or after Variscan times. Extraction from sedimentary rocks by hydrothermal brines is favoured. INTRODUCTION 1964), and discussed (Bernard, 1965; Duchesne, 1965).

  • Miniguida Colline Metallifere Massa Marittima
    Miniguida Colline Metallifere Massa Marittima Il suo nome deriva dal termine massa, che in epoca romana indicava le proprietà fondiarie sotto un’unica amministrazione ed in età longobarda piccoli feudi. Nei secoli il termine massa è stato accompagnato da diverse specificazioni come “Veternensis”, “Vetuloniensis”, “Metallorum” fino all’attuale “Marittima”. Risalgono al periodo tra Il territorio l’ottavo ed il nono secolo dopo Cristo le prime attestazioni documentarie relative a Massa. È con il trasferimento a Massa della sede episcopale da Populonia che si ha però il decollo del piccolo borgo. Lo sviluppo delle attività produttive, fin dall’antichità conosciute nella zona, legate all’estrazione e alla lavorazione dei metalli portò inoltre grande floridezza economica. Ciò permise un notevole sviluppo urbanistico del centro abitato. Sottraendosi alle residue prerogative vescovili nel 1225 i massetani videro la nascita del Libero Comune (repubblica massetana). Questa data rappresenta un momento fondamentale nella sua storia. In questo periodo viene promulgato lo statuto politico- amministrativo e portato avanti il nuovo assetto urbanistico nel quale si integrano la ristrutturazione della Città Vecchia e la pianificazione di una nuova espansione urbana, la Città Nuova. La nascita del libero comune dà nuovo impulso alle attività produttive legate all’estrazione dei metalli. In questo periodo viene scritto il primo Codice Minerario d’Europa. Nel 1337 Massa cadde sotto la dominazione senese. Cattedrale di San Cerbone 1 Miniguida Colline Metallifere Luoghi da visitare Il Capoluogo La piazza Garibaldi è il cuore della Città Vecchia e riunisce i più importanti edifici pubblici del libero comune medievale. La Basilica Cattedrale di San Cerbone, costruita tra il XII ed il XIII sec., domina la piazza.

The strata are correlated with the late Carnian Lehrberg Beds and contain a diverse assemblage of tetrapods, including the phytosaur Paleorhinus, which in other regions of the world co-occurs with the oldest dinosaurs. A narrow pelvis with long pubes and the extensive development of laminae in the cervical vertebrae place S. opolensis close to the origin of the clade Dinosauria above Pseudolagosuchus, which agrees with its geological age. Among the advanced characters is the beak on the dentaries, and the relatively low tooth count. The teeth have low crowns and wear facets, which are suggestive of herbivory.

  • Federico Selvi a Critical Checklist of the Vascular Flora of Tuscan Maremma
    Federico Selvi A critical checklist of the vascular flora of Tuscan Maremma (Grosseto province, Italy) Abstract Selvi, F.: A critical checklist of the vascular flora of Tuscan Maremma (Grosseto province, Italy). — Fl. Medit. 20: 47-139. 2010. — ISSN 1120-4052. The Tuscan Maremma is a historical region of central western Italy of remarkable ecological and landscape value, with a surface of about 4.420 km2 largely corresponding to the province of Grosseto. A critical inventory of the native and naturalized vascular plant species growing in this territory is here presented, based on over twenty years of author's collections and study of relevant herbarium materials and literature. The checklist includes 2.056 species and subspecies (excluding orchid hybrids), of which, however, 49 should be excluded, 67 need confirmation and 15 have most probably desappeared during the last century. Considering the 1.925 con- firmed taxa only, this area is home of about 25% of the Italian flora though representing only 1.5% of the national surface. The main phytogeographical features in terms of life-form distri- bution, chorological types, endemic species and taxa of particular conservation relevance are presented. Species not previously recorded from Tuscany are: Anthoxanthum ovatum Lag., Cardamine amporitana Sennen & Pau, Hieracium glaucinum Jord., H. maranzae (Murr & Zahn) Prain (H. neoplatyphyllum Gottschl.), H. murorum subsp. tenuiflorum (A.-T.) Schinz & R. Keller, H. vasconicum Martrin-Donos, Onobrychis arenaria (Kit.) DC., Typha domingensis (Pers.) Steud., Vicia loiseleurii (M. Bieb) Litv. and the exotic Oenothera speciosa Nutt. Key words: Flora, Phytogeography, Taxonomy, Tuscan Maremma. Introduction Inhabited by man since millennia and cradle of the Etruscan civilization, Maremma is a historical region of central-western Italy that stretches, in its broadest sense, from south- ern Tuscany to northern Latium in the provinces of Pisa, Livorno, Grosseto and Viterbo.
