This is a rare-element aplite-pegmatite field with enrichment in Li, Sn, Nb>Ta, Rb, and P. Several hundreds of pegmatite bodies were identified and described in this field area intruding a variety of rock types including different metasedimentary, and granitic rocks. In this study we present the geology and mineralogy, and mineral geochemistry of different types of aplite-pegmatites bodies found at Barroso-Alvão. Their description was based on field observa- tion, mineralogy, emplacement of the bodies and geochemical data. There were identified five dif- ferent groups: intragranite pegmatites with major quartz, feldspar, muscovite, biotite, and minor tourmaline, beryl and garnet; barren pegmatites with quartz, feldspar, muscovite, and minor bi- otite, apatite, and beryl, among other accessories; spodumene pegmatites with spodumene, Nb-Ta minerals, and Mn-Fe-Li phosphates, along with other accessory mineral phases; petalite pegma- 178 Martins and Lima CAD.

  • Planting Power ... Formation in Portugal.Pdf
    Promotoren: Dr. F. von Benda-Beckmann Hoogleraar in het recht, meer in het bijzonder het agrarisch recht van de niet-westerse gebieden. Ir. A. van Maaren Emeritus hoogleraar in de boshuishoudkunde. Preface The history of Portugal is, like that of many other countries in Europe, one of deforestation and reafforestation. Until the eighteenth century, the reclamation of land for agriculture, the expansion of animal husbandry (often on communal grazing grounds or baldios), and the increased demand for wood and timber resulted in the gradual disappearance of forests and woodlands. This tendency was reversed only in the nineteenth century, when planting of trees became a scientifically guided and often government-sponsored activity. The reversal was due, on the one hand, to the increased economic value of timber (the market's "invisible hand" raised timber prices and made forest plantation economically attractive), and to the realization that deforestation had severe impacts on the environment. It was no accident that the idea of sustainability, so much in vogue today, was developed by early-nineteenth-century foresters. Such is the common perspective on forestry history in Europe and Portugal. Within this perspective, social phenomena are translated into abstract notions like agricultural expansion, the invisible hand of the market, and the public interest in sustainably-used natural environments. In such accounts, trees can become gifts from the gods to shelter, feed and warm the mortals (for an example, see: O Vilarealense, (Vila Real), 12 January 1961). However, a closer look makes it clear that such a detached account misses one key aspect: forests serve not only public, but also particular interests, and these particular interests correspond to specific social groups.

Carvalho, Instituto Geológico e Mineiro, Portugal João A. L. B. Farinha, Instituto Geológico e Mineiro ABSTRACT The Portuguese territory has many rich in Li-rich mineral occurrences that are mainly associated with aplite-pegmatite dykes and sills intruded in granitic and metasedimentary rocks of the Central Iberian and Galicia – Trás-os-Montes geotectonic zones. Some of those occurrences have a higher economic potencial value, as is the case of the Gonçalo region in the Guarda district and the Barroso - Alvão region near Boticas in the Vila Real district. Geological studies carried out by the Geological and Mining Institute of Portugal (IGM) showed this areas as attractive targets for Li-rich raw material for the ceramic and glass industries of the Iberian market or even for Li-rich standard ore concentrates. 1. INTRODUCTION Lithium is an alkali metal with an atomic number of 3 and a single valence electron which gives it special properties, namely it is the lightest metal element and has a strong electrochemical reactivity.

COLEOPTER addresses two energy efficiency challenges in buildings: difficulties for rural municipalities to act and carry out work despite the positive local impact (i.e., energy savings and local employment) and a lack of awareness of building challenges, which leads to irrational use of energy and low renovation rates. The COLEOPTER approach has three components: 1. Territorial dialogue with local actors to co-construct work plans of public buildings. 2. Use of Building Information Modelling (BIM) as a collaborative tool to support the dialogue. 3. Consideration of water efficiency issues along with energy challenges to better consider usage. The approach will be tested on four public buildings, three to be renovated (in Póvoa do Lanhoso, Portugal; Cartagena, Spain; and Creuse, France) and one new building (in Creuse, France). It will be replicated in Escaldes-Engordany (Andorra) to validate its transferability.

  • ES+ Methodology: Mapping Social Entrepreneurship INTRODUCTION
    ACRN Journal of Entrepreneurship Perspectives Vol. 1, Issue 1, p. 97 – 110, Feb. 2012 ISSN 2224-9729 ES+ Methodology: Mapping Social Entrepreneurship Rita Megre1, Miguel Alves Martins2, João Cotter Salvado3 1 Research Associate, Social Entrepreneurship Institute, rita@ies.org.pt 2 Founder and Director, Social Entrepreneurship Institute, miguel@ies.org.pt 3 Research Associate, Social Entrepreneurship Institute, joao@ies.org.pt Abstract. The Social Entrepreneurship Institute (IES) in Portugal has developed an innovative methodology called ES+ for the identification and research of Social Entrepreneurship initiatives at the local and regional level. This methodology was created as part of an overall policy to identify and support Social Entrepreneurship initiatives in Portugal, considering Social Entrepreneurship as a solution to yet unresolved social and environmental issues. The goal of this methodology is not only to identify innovative solutions that can be replicated in other regions/countries but also to identify the needs of social entrepreneurs, allowing for an action plan and for the tailoring of IES services, to be able to better serve these social entrepreneurs, empowering them for greater social and environmental impact. In this paper, the ES+ Methodology is described and presented with application to two contrasting Portuguese regions – one mostly urban, near the Portuguese capital and the other mostly rural in the remote Portuguese inland region of Trás-os-Montes. Keywords: Social Entrepreneurship, Research, Methodology, Mapping, Identification, Support INTRODUCTION Social Entrepreneurship (SE) is a rising field of activity worldwide. Given the inclusive nature of the field it is sometimes difficult to define it in a rigorous way, and several definitions have been proposed.

In Portugal, the first medical emergency system dates back to 1965. The Helicopter Emergency Medical Service of the National Institute of Medical Emergency (INEM) started operating in 1997. Objective: To inform about the history and current situation of the helicopter aeromedical transport of critically ill patients through the two major institutions in Portugal: the INEM and the Portuguese Air Force (FAP). Methodology: A qualitative historical study was conducted through documental analysis of the primary sources provided by the Portuguese Air Force and the National Institute of Medical Emergency, as well as the secondary sources. Results: The results suggest that the creation of a model for sharing air assets between various institutions leads to a more effective and efficient transport of critically ill patients. Conclusion: Further studies should be conducted to reveal the historical role played by the teams of physicians, nurses, commanders and pilots in Portugal. Keywords: history of nursing; aeromedical transport; helicopter; critically ill patient.

    CREATING LOCAL COMPANIES WITH A GLOBAL FOCUS As in many parts of Southern Europe, large swathes of the Portuguese interior are rapidly losing population to the faster developing coastal areas. Despite important investments in infrastructure many of these areas are locked into an inward- looking spiral which is still heavily dependent on agriculture and public sector employment. Young people and women are the first to suffer and often the first to leave. The partners of the GLOCAL EQUAL project realised that they were going to have work on at least two levels if their catchment area in the interior Alto Douro region was going to break out of this blind alley. First of all, they had to tackle the main barriers preventing local people from creating new economic activities. Secondly, they had to find ways of connecting the new enterprises to higher value added opportunities both inside and outside the area. In order to do this they created and tested an integrated kit, made up of four new tools, which are now being taken up in other parts of Portugal GLOCAL is a small compact partnership of five members, led by a private company committed to local development.. However, this has not prevented GLOCAL from networking extensively with financial institutions, employers, local authorities and learning and training establishments to influence all the key players affecting the development of the area. By doing this, GLOCAL has shown how even the most remote rural areas can contribute to the Lisbon objective of promoting a “more entrepreneurial culture and create a supportive environment for SMEs”.
