Hydrogeochemistry of the Abandoned Sulfide Mines of the Middle Urals (Russia)
Abstract Many years after completion of mining, acidic groundwater continues to accumulate within the abandoned chalcopyrite mines of the Urals (Russia). The process of its generation is not steady: there is an initial large accumulation with a...

Precise determination of the phase boundary between coesite and stishovite in SiO2
Abstract The phase boundary between coesite and stishovite in SiO2 was determined over the range of 1200–1700K using a multi-anvil high-pressure apparatus combined with the synchrotron X-ray diffraction technique. The stability of each phase was...
