Granquist VII WELCOME THE 55TH ANNUAL MEETING OF THE CLAY MINERALS SOCIETY, HELD JUNE 11–14, 2018, AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT URBANA-CHAMPAIGN, ILLINOIS, USA The Clay Mineral Society (CMS) began in 1952 as the Interdivisional Committee on Clay Minerals of the National Academy of Sciences-National Research Council. By 1962, the Clay Mineral Society was established as own its society. The primary purpose of CMS is to stimulate research and education and to disseminate information relating to all aspects of clay science and technology. Through its conference and publications (Clays and Clay Minerals and CMS Workshop Lectures Series) the society provides numerous opportunities for the information exchange and interdisciplinary research collaborations. The society welcomes colleagues from all branches of clay sciences and from many countries in the world to the CMS conferences and to our society journal, Clays and Clay Minerals, to disseminate their valuable work. The program of the 55th annual meeting of The Clay Minerals Society (Theme: New Visons of Clay Science) consists of a workshop on Medicinal Applications of Clay Minerals organized by Professor Jin-ho Choy, EWHA Womans University, Korea and four days of technical sessions.

The process of oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+ ions started at about 350 °C for the sample richer in Al and at 300 °C for the sample somewhat lower Al-content. Mössbauer results show that this process may be associated with dehydroxylation or even initiate it. The first stage of dehydroxylation takes place at a temperature > 350 °C when the adjacent OH groups are replaced with a single residual oxygen atom. Up to ~500 °C, Fe ions do not migrate from cis- octahedra to trans-octahedra sites, but the coordination number of polyhedra changes from six to five.

    A 1 Case-PR/ }*Rciofft.;Is Report

    .A 1 case-PR/ }*rciofft.;is Report (a) This eruption site on Mauna Loa Volcano was the main source of the voluminous lavas that flowed two- thirds of the distance to the town of Hilo (20 km). In the interior of the lava fountains, the white-orange color indicates maximum temperatures of about 1120°C; deeper orange in both the fountains and flows reflects decreasing temperatures (<1100°C) at edges and the surface. (b) High winds swept the exposed ridges, and the filter cannister was changed in the shelter of a p^hoehoc (lava) ridge to protect the sample from gas contamination. (c) Because of the high temperatures and acid gases, special clothing and equipment was necessary to protect the eyes. nose, lungs, and skin. Safety features included military flight suits of nonflammable fabric, fuil-face respirators that are equipped with dual acidic gas filters (purple attachments), hard hats, heavy, thick-soled boots, and protective gloves. We used portable radios to keep in touch with the Hawaii Volcano Observatory, where the area's seismic activity was monitored continuously. (d) Spatter activity in the Pu'u O Vent during the January 1984 eruption of Kilauea Volcano. Magma visible in the circular conduit oscillated in a piston-like fashion; spatter was ejected to heights of 1 to 10 m. During this activity, we sampled gases continuously for 5 hours at the west edge. Cover photo: This aerial view of Kilauea Volcano was taken in April 1984 during overflights to collect gas samples from the plume. The bluish portion of the gas plume contained a far higher density of fine-grained scoria (ash).

Impact melts have been identified in radar data on the lunar near side [2], but they have yet to be studied in depth on the lunar far side, given the lack of global radar data prior to the launch of NASA’s Mini-RF instrument on the Lunar Reconnaissance Or- biter (LRO) in 2009.

The impact of transition periods is experienced by the local population and economy as a result of mining activities closure and dismissal of a large number of workers followed by diversification of employment and career reorientation opportunities. The aim of the paper is to highlight the impact generated by closure of mining operations on local society and economy as well as identifying opportunities for harmonious development of communities in the Jiu Valley. Following the assessment of the social impact of mining activities closure, we found a rising tendency of unemployment rate among the middle-aged population that did not benefit from vocational retraining and the growing tendency of young people to leave the region for strictly economic reasons leading to widespread social aging. 1 Restructuring of mi ning activity in Romania and the Jiu Valley Jiu Valley is a micro-region in Hunedoara County, located between the Retezat and Parâng Mountains (fig.1). It consists of 3 cities: Petrila, Uricani and Aninoasa and 3 municipalities - Petroșani, Lupeni and Vulcan. Officially, the micro-region has no rural areas, because it has been incorporated into municipalities or cities, being considered urban. * Corresponding author: [email protected] © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.

Abstract Impact cratering is an abrupt, spectacular process that occurs on any world with a solid surface. On Earth, these craters are easily eroded or destroyed through endogenic processes. The Moon and Mercury, however, lack a significant atmosphere, meaning craters on these worlds remain intact longer, geologically. In this thesis, remote-sensing techniques were used to investigate impact melt emplacement about Mercury’s fresh, complex craters. For complex lunar craters, impact melt is preferentially ejected from the lowest rim elevation, implying topographic control. On Venus, impact melt is preferentially ejected downrange from the impact site, implying impactor-direction control. Mercury, despite its heavily-cratered surface, trends more like Venus than like the Moon.

    Reactions Accompanying Stabilization of Clay with Cement A

    Reactions Accompanying Stabilization Of Clay with Cement A. HERZOG, Senior Lecturer in Civil Engineering, University of New South Wales, Newcastle, Australia, and J. K. :MITCHELL, Assistant Professor of Civil Engineering, and Assistant Research Engineer, Institute of Transportation and Traffic Engineering, University of California, Berkeley This paper reports the results of an investigation aimed at de­ lineating the nature of the reactions accompanying the stabili­ zation of clay with portland cement. Consideration of the nature of cement hydration, the physico-chemical character­ istics of clays and lime-clay interaction leads to the hypothesis that during the hydration of a clay-cement mixture, hydrolysis and hydration of cement could be regarded as primary reac­ tions which form usual cement hydration products, increase the pH, and liberate lime. The high pH and Ca(OHh concen­ tration could initiate attack of the clay particles and also cause breakdown of amorphous silica and alumina which then could combine with calcium to form secondary cementitious material. A clay-cement skeleton and a clay matrix are likely. Mechanical, X-ray diffraction, and chemical tests on kao­ linite and montmorillonite stabilized with portland cement and with pure tricalcium silicate (C3S), the major strength-producing compound in portland cement, gave results in agreement with this hypothesis. Compacted clay-cement mixtures were cured at 100 percent relative humidity and at 60 C (to accelerate hardening) and studied at different times after molding. X-ray analyses showed that calcium hydroxide was formed in hydrat­ ing clay-cement, but was rapidly used up in reaction with the clay. Minor alteration of the kaolinite-cement X-ray pattern and marked alteration of the montmorillonite-cement X-ray pattern were indicated after curing periods of 12 weeks, sug­ gesting clay mineral structure breakdown and/or interaction with cement at particle surfaces.

The period of the greatest activity in this field of solid state chemistry and physics was from about 1970 to 1990. The intercalation reactions are defined as topotactic solid state reactions and the products – the intercalation compounds – clearly distinguished from inclusion and interstitial compounds. After a short historical introduction emphasizing the pioneering work of Ulrich Hofmann the central topics and concepts will be reviewed and commented. The most important ones in my view are: dichalcogenide intercalation compounds, the electrochemical intercalation and search for new battery electrodes, the physics of graphite intercalation compounds, the staging and interstratification phenomena. The relation to other fields of actual research and demands for forthcoming research will be also addressed. Introduction As far as I found the verb „to intercalate“ and the term „intercalation“ has been used for the first time by McDonnell et al. in 1951 without any explanation for using it. 1 In 1959 Rüdorff used the phrase „intercalation compounds“ in the title of a review about all chemical derivatives of graphite.2 In these compounds atoms or ions have been inserted (alternatively, intercalated, or in German „eingelagert") under expansion of the lattice perpendicular to the nearly unchanged graphite layers.

    195 Ecotourism Trigger of Sustainable Development In

    Analele Universităţii din Oradea, Fascicula Protecţia Mediului Vol. XXIV, 2015 ECOTOURISM TRIGGER OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN THE JIU VALLEY Luca Sergiu*, Marchiş Diana** *University of Petroşani, 20 University St., 332006 Petroşani, Romania, e-mail: [email protected] **University of Petroşani, Faculty of Mining, 20 University St., 332006 Petroşani, Romania, e-mail: marchiş[email protected] Abstract Jiu Valley, a mono-industrial area, where mining was the main activity of the inhabitants, underwent many transformations in recent years. Restructuring the mining industry, the large number of layoffs has led to rapid increase in unemployment and decline in living standards of the inhabitants of Petrosani Depression . In these circumstances, from the local authorities have identified tourism development as a complementary activity / alternative to local economy. Key words : mountain environment, tourism, mining, unemployment INTRODUCTION In the south of Hunedoara county, in a triangle proved to be golden , on the border between Transylvania, Banat and the Romanian Country, lies an area known generically under denu - groom " Jiu Valley " and geographi- cally that " Petrosani Depression " region that has earned the reputation as the " Land of black Diamond " (fig. 1). Fig. 1. Layout and composition Jiu Valley 195 REASON Jiu Valley - a region made up of three municipalities: Petrosani,Lupeni, Vulcan and three cities : Petrila, Uricani, alder, with a total population of 120 734 inhabitants, the main economic activity was the coal mining industry in the years after 1990 suffered transformations in economic, social and demographic changes resulting from the restructuring of this activity sector. Besides mining sector restructuring , the reference faced available - saw and activities related to mining or provide services to the mining sector, which has led to diponibilizări from these activities, leading to a high rate of unemployment in the area.
