  • Arts of the Indus Valley
    2 ARTS OF THE INDUS VALLEY HE arts of the Indus Valley Civilisation emerged during Tthe second half of the third millennium BCE. The forms of art found from various sites of the civilisation include sculptures, seals, pottery, jewellery, terracotta figures, etc. The artists of that time surely had fine artistic sensibilities and a vivid imagination. Their delineation of human and animal figures was highly realistic in nature, since the anatomical details included in them were unique, and, in the case of terracotta art, the modelling of animal figures was done in an extremely careful manner. The two major sites of the Indus Valley Civilisation, along the Indus river—the cities of Harappa in the north and Mohenjodaro in the south—showcase one of earliest examples of civic planning. Other markers were houses, markets, storage facilities, offices, public baths, etc., arranged in a grid-like pattern. There was also a highly developed drainage system. While Harappa and Mohenjodaro are situated in Pakistan, the important sites excavated in India are Lothal and Dholavira in Gujarat, Rakhigarhi in Haryana, Bust of a bearded priest Ropar in Punjab, Kalibangan in Rajasthan, etc. Stone Statues Statues whether in stone, bronze or terracotta found in Harappan sites are not abundant, but refined. The stone statuaries found at Harappa and Mohenjodaro are excellent examples of handling three-dimensional volumes. In stone are two male figures—one is a torso in red sandstone and the other is a bust of a bearded man in soapstone—which are extensively discussed. The figure of the bearded man, interpreted as a priest, is draped in a shawl coming under the right arm and covering the left shoulder.

  • Serpentinites and Associated Rock Types Near Hopedale, Nunatsiavut: Potential for Artisanal Carving-Stone Resources
    Current Research (2019) Newfoundland and Labrador Department of Natural Resources Geological Survey, Report 19-1, pages 39-57 SERPENTINITES AND ASSOCIATED ROCK TYPES NEAR HOPEDALE, NUNATSIAVUT: POTENTIAL FOR ARTISANAL CARVING-STONE RESOURCES A. Kerr and G.C. Squires1 Department of Earth Sciences, Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John’s, NL, A1B 3X5 (Mineral Deposits Section, Emeritus) 110 Fair Haven Place, St. John’s, NL, A1E 4S1 ABSTRACT The carving of stone is a traditional activity in Nunatsiavut, with thousands of years of history, and it continues to con- tribute to the economic development of communities on the north coast of Labrador. Although modern carvers use a wide vari- ety of materials and employ power tools, soft, altered ultramafic rocks (typically called ‘soapstone’, although technically ser- pentinite) remain the medium of choice. Serpentinite and true soapstone occur on a small scale in the Archean Nain Province, notably around Hopedale, and have been exploited on a small scale by local artists. Previous investigations suggested that larger scale extraction of carving stone might be possible at Tooktoosner Bay, very close to Hopedale, and at Adlatok Bay, located some 35 km south of Hopedale. This report discusses the Tooktoosner Bay area. At Tooktoonsner Bay, elongated zones of variably altered ultramafic rocks, up to 1 km in strike length, are surrounded by complex quartzofeldspathic orthogneisses, and are spatially associated with unusual metasedimentary (?) rocks rich in quartz and diopside. The ultramafic rocks range from relatively fresh harzburgite with preserved igneous textures to pervasively altered serpentinite that retains only vestiges of primary minerals. Some distinctive bright-green-weathering serpentinite out- crops along the shoreline have long provided small amounts of carving stone, obtained mostly from loose material.

  • Soap Stone Sculpture NAME:______
    Soap Stone Sculpture NAME:____________ Soapstone carving is an ancient practice dating back more than 3000 years ago. An art gallery has commissioned you to create a soapstone sculpture reflecting a specific animal or Inukshuk. The final work must show clear evidence of an influence from the Northern Canadian style/period. You will gain appreciation of the art of Canada’s aboriginal peoples, develop problem solving skills in designing your own work in the Northern Canadian style with subtractive sculpture techniques, and learn to follow steps for cutting, carving, and polishing soap stone. You will first create 3 different conceptual sketches (different angles – front, side and back) , which will be evaluated. You will also submit a Loon Soapstone carving statement outlining the chosen subject matter of the work and artistic style in your sculpture and the sculpture techniques you used in creating it. What is Soapstone? There are three different kinds of rocks found on the earth. They are igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. Soapstone is formed by changes in the structure of an igneous rock such as peridotite. These changes occur at low temperature and moderate pressure in the presence of water. Soapstone is then a metamorphic rock that forms in layers with different degrees of thickness. Soapstone, which is also known as steatite, is a soft rock which is made up mostly of the mineral talc. It feels soapy or oily and can be found in a variety of colours such as white, gray, or grayish-green. History: Cape Dorset is probably the most famous art producing community in Canada's north.

  • Magnesite Soapstone in Use of Fire Chamber Constructions: Composition and Structure Adaptation
    Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, Vol. 91, 2019, pp 101–118, https://doi.org/10.17741/bgsf/91.1.004 Magnesite soapstone in use of fire chamber constructions: composition and structure adaptation Anne Huhta1*, Pekka Tuisku1, Tonci Balic-Zunic2 and Aulis Kärki3 1 Oulu Mining School, University of Oulu, P.O. Box 3000, 90014 University of Oulu, Finland 2 Department of Geosciences and Natural Resource Management, University of Copenhagen, Øster Voldgade 10, DK-1350 Copenhagen K 3 Kivitieto Oy, Teknologiantie 1, 90590 Oulu, Finland Abstract The Finnish soapstone industry has found through practical experience that the surface of the magnesite soapstone used in fire chambers and funnels hardens over time. We have studied a magnesite soapstone used in a fireplace continuously for 60 years. The mineralogical changes, that took place during heating and subsequent cooling of the fireplace have been investigated with electron probe microanalyzer and X-ray diffractometer to find an explanation, what kind of reactions caused the hardening. We found that ferromagnesite has been altered to pseudomorphic aggregates composed of ferropericlase and magnesioferrite in the nearest ~30 mm from the surface exposed to fire. Iron has been mobilized in the uppermost 3 mm, enriched in the rims, and depleted from the cores of the ferropericlase aggregates. Magnesioferrite occurs preferably in the fire chamber side of the aggregates in the uppermost 0.20 mm. Talc rims are altered to forsterite and/or enstatite in the reaction with ferromagnesite or its alteration products in the uppermost ~1 mm. In addition, wood combustion gases caused considerable enrichment of zinc and potassium in the chamber surface rock to the depth on 0.20 mm and 3 mm, respectively.

    U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR TO ACCOMPANY MAP MF-2198-C U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY MINERAL RESOURCE ASSESSMENT OF MAFIC AND ULTRAMAFIC ROCKS IN THE GREENVILLE 1o x 2° QUADRANGLE, SOUTH CAROLINA, GEORGIA, AND NORTH CAROLINA By Frank G. Lesure, John P. D'Agostino, and David Gottfried INTRODUCTION Rocks of all the thrust sheets are polydeformed and polymeta­ morphic (Nelson, 1988, p. 11). Many rocks of the Blue Ridge and Mineral resources of the Greenville 1o x zo quadrangle, South Inner Piedmont thrust stacks are at medium to high metamorphic Carolina, Georgia, and North Carolina, were assessed between 1984 and 1990 under the Conterminous United States Mineral grade in the kyanite or sillimanite zone (fig. 3). The Charlotte and Assessment Program (CUSMAP) of the U.S. Geological Survey mafic-ultramafic thrust sheets are generally of low to medium (USGS). The mineral resource assessments were made on the grade. Nelson (1988, p. 9-11), in summarizing the timing of basis of geologic, geochemical, and geophysical investigations and regional metamorphism, recognized separate metamorphic events on the distribution of mines, prospects and mineral occurrences at 4 70 to 430 million years ago (Ma) for the thrust sheets west of reported in the literature. the Dahlonega thrust fault, about 365 Ma for the Tallulah Falls and This report is an assessment of the mineral resources associated Six Mile thrust sheets, about 365 or possibly 430 to 410 Ma for the with mafic and ultramafic rocks in the Greenville quadrangle. It is Chauga-Walhalla thrust complex, about 344 Ma for the Paris based on the geology as mapped by Nelson and others (1987, Mountain and Laurens thrust sheets, and 338 to 312 Ma for the 1989), on geochemistry of rock samples collected for this and other Charlotte and mafic-ultramafic thrust sheets.
