Genesis of Chah-Talkh Nonsulfide Zn-Pb Deposit (South of Iran): Evidence from Geology, Mineralogy, Geochemistry and Stable Isotope (C, O) Data --Manuscript Draft
Arabian Journal of Geosciences Genesis of Chah-Talkh nonsulfide Zn-Pb deposit (south of Iran): Evidence from Geology, Mineralogy, Geochemistry and Stable Isotope (C, O) data --Manuscript Draft-- Manuscript Number: AJGS-D-12-00257 Full Title: Genesis of Chah-Talkh nonsulfide Zn-Pb deposit (south of Iran): Evidence from Geology, Mineralogy, Geochemistry and Stable Isotope (C, O) data Article Type: Original Paper Abstract: Abstract Chah-Talkh nonsulfide Zn-Pb deposit with about more than 720000 t at 15% Zn in the form of Zn carbonates and silicates is a target resource in the south of Iran. In this preliminary study, some cases likes geology, mineralogy and geochemistry (major and trace element data and stable Isotope) of this deposit in surface and depth are investigated for determine of genesis. The analyses carried out on samples from 14 drill cores and 15 surface profiles (vertical to veins strike). Mineralization occurs in 3 main veins with thickness about 0.5 to 3 meters in the length about 900 m that in (resent) exploration this length increases. Main ore minerals are hydrozincite, hemimorphite and smithsonite. The mineralogical and geochemical evidences indicate that Chah-Talkh deposit is a typical supergene nonsulfide Zn-Pb deposit in carbonate rocks that primary sulfide ores almost has been affected by deeply weathered. Mineralization in Chah-Talkh is generally associated with fracture zones and dolomitization. It seems that distribution of hemimorphite, smithsonite and hydrozincite is reflection of existing of clay minerals in host rocks. In presence of clay minerals (in marly limestone) main ore mineral is hemimorphite and in absence of clay minerals (micritic limestone) main ore mineral is hydrozincite and smithsonite. -

The Distribution of Ammonium in Granites from South-West England
Journal of the Geological Society, London, Vol. 145, 1988, pp. 37-41, 1 fig., 5 tables. Printed in Northern Ireland The distribution of ammonium in granites from South-West England A. HALL Department of Geology, Royal Holloway and Bedford New College, Egham, Surrey TW20 OEX, UK Abstract: The ammonium contents of granites, pegmatites and hydrothermally altered rocks from SW England have been measured. Ammonium levels in the granites are generally high compared with those from other regions, averaging 36ppm,and they differ markedlybetween intrusions. The pegmatites show higherammonium contents than any other igneous rocks which have yet been investigated. Ammonium contents are strongly enriched in the hydrothermally altered rocks, includ- ing greisens and kaolinized granites. There is agood correlation between the average ammonium content of the intrusions in SW England and their initial "Sr/*'Sr ratios and peraluminosity. This relationship supports the hypothesis that the ammonium in the granites is derived from a sedimentary source, either in the magmatic source region or via contamination of the magma. Introduction Results Ammonium is present as a trace constituent of granitic The granites rocks, in which it occurs in feldspars and micas substituting isomorphously for potassium (Honma & Itihara 1981). The The new analyses of Cornubian granites are given in Table amount of ammonium in granites varies from zero to over 1.

Cobalt Mineralisation in Cornwall – a New Discovery at Porthtowan
G.K. Rollinson, N. Le Boutillier and R. Selly COBALT MINERALISATION IN CORNWALL – A NEW DISCOVERY AT PORTHTOWAN G.K. ROLLINSON 1, N. LE BOUTILLIER AND R. SELLY Rollinson, G.K., Le Boutillier, N. and Selly, R. 2018. Cobalt mineralisation in Cornwall – A new discovery at Porthtowan. Geoscience in South-West England, 14, 176–187. Although cobalt mineralisation has been noted in Cornwall and Devon in the mining literature, there are limited details of its production and paragenesis; detailed mineral studies of cobalt are almost non-existent. This paper describes in detail previously unrecorded cobalt mineralisation discovered at Porthtowan, Cornwall, in the vicinity of old workings which are part of the Wheal Lushington group of mines, immediately west of the village. A small number of massive sulphide/gangue samples (taken from a larger sample suite) were chosen to be as representative as possible. Analysis was carried out using a QEMSCAN® automated mineral SEM-EDS system, which found that samples contained up to 50% cobaltite, along with chalcopyrite, bornite, galena, sphalerite, acanthite, erythrite, matildite, chlorargyite and other primary and secondary mineral species. This assemblage is typical of a sub-type of crosscourse mineralisation, with secondary species a result of significant weathering and supergene alteration, complicated by seawater infiltration due to the coastal location. While the number of samples is limited, the detail of the mineralogical assemblage is significant, as it is the first time such an assemblage has been subjected to this level of scientific scrutiny in Cornwall. 1 Camborne School of Mines, University of Exeter, Cornwall Campus, Penryn, Cornwall, TR10 9FE, UK. -

The Lees of Quethiock Cornwall Their Family History from Ancient Times
THE LEES OF QUETHIOCK CORNWALL THEIR FAMILY HISTORY FROM ANCIENT TIMES "Brave men have lived before Agamemnon, lots of them. But on all of them - eternal night lies heavy, for they left no records behind. (`ODES` Horace 65-8BC) This is the story of those who did This is the story of my ancestors, the Lee family, who have left records behind and from which the line can be traced from Alexander and Thomas born 1994 and 1990 respectively, back to John of Legh, alive in 1433, and Richard de Leye, alive in 1327. John and Richard lived at, and took their surname from Legh, a pre-Norman settlement in Cornwall recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086. Legh is situated in the present parish of Quethiock, some 5 miles west of the River Tamar and 5 miles east of Liskeard, just in the southeast corner of Cornwall. To uncover the history took ten and more years of research. So what stimulated me to commence? In 1986 I watched a television programme on early portraiture. It was explained that during the time of the Roman Empire (146BC-410AD) it was fashionable to have a statue carved of oneself together with ones father and grandfather. To illustrate this a statue from the 1st century AD was shown; I was astounded to note that it bore a likeness to my family and in particular to my brother, David Henry Lee. I immediately commented on this to my wife, Brenda, who replied `No, it is more like you`. From that moment the question lay in my mind `I look like a Roman from 2000 years ago; I have the surname of Lee which is derived from a Saxon-German word meaning pasture; my father`s family were known to have come from Cornwall and so presumably I have West Welsh Celtic blood; my mother claimed her family came from Devon and I was born in Devonport on the borders of Devon and Cornwall; so who am I? Cornwall over the millenniums had been invaded by 6 or so groups of different people; Ancient British (7000BC), Celts (700BC-63AD), Danes (800AD), Romans (63-401AD), Saxons (447-1066AD), Normans (1066).
