Sulfide mineralization are the main resource for exploiting Pb, Zn, and Cu metals in Egypt.
Sulfide mineralization is represented by four sulfide types of the different setting, lithology and ages, namely:
i) Lead-Zinc sulphide Deposits
ii) Cu-NiCo sulphide Deposits
This type of mineralization is well represented in Abu Swayel in South Eastern Desert. The ore is closely related to mafic-ultramafic and gabbro of ophiolitic rocks.
iii) Cu-Ni sulphide deposits
This type of mineralization occurs in layered mafic-ultramafic intrusions like gabbro rocks at Akarm and El Geneina .
iv) Stratiform Massive Sulphide (Zn-Cu-Pb) Deposits
This type of mineralization is represented by a group of small lenses associated with talc deposits in South Eastern Desert at: Um Samuki, Helgit, Maakal, Atshan, Darhib, Abu Gurdi, and Egat.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Historians divide Egyptian history into smaller units of time called periods. There are nine periods of Egyptian history, starting in the Stone Age and ending in Roman times.
7. Egypt: Geography The Egyptians thought of the land as split between the “red” land and the “black” land: Red Black The 'red land' was the barren desert that protected Egypt on two sides. These deserts separated ancient Egypt from neighboring countries and invading armies. They also provided the ancient Egyptians with a source for precious metals and semi-precious stones. The 'black land' was the fertile land on the banks of the Nile. The ancient Egyptians used this land for growing their crops. This was the only land in ancient Egypt that could be farmed because a layer of rich, black silt was deposited there every year after the Nile flooded.
12. Sinai Peninsula Sinai Peninsula Nile Valley and Delta Arabian Desert Libyan Desert The Mediterranean Sea lies to the north of Egypt and the Red Sea to the east.
13. Egypt: Climate & Regions The Nile is the longest river in the world. It is 4,160 miles (6,695 kilometers) long. This is the distance from New York to San Francisco and halfway back again.
14. Egypt: Climate & Regions Without the Nile there would have been no civilization in Egypt because it is a desert. During the rainy season, the Nile River floods its banks and pours sand, silt, and nutrients into the surrounding desert soil. Over centuries the Nile has brought rich farming soil and water to the desert.
15. Egypt: Climate & Regions The Western Desert’s “White Desert”
16. Egypt: Climate & Regions The Western Desert’s “White Desert”
17. Egypt: Climate & Regions The Western Desert’s “Black Desert”
18. Egypt’s Trees: Ancient & Modern Tamarisk Willow Willow Eucalyptus Sycamore Date Palm Acacia
19. Egypt’s Fish & Flowers Egypt's flowering plants include roses, lilies, irises, jasmine and the lotus Lily Iris Lotus Jasmine There are about two hundred species of fish in the Nile. The Red Sea is filled with coral and tropical marine fish.
20. Egypt: Geographical Features Palm trees = Oasis Blue dot = Quarry Red dot = Mines
21. Egypt: Geographical Features An oasis is an area of land in the middle of a desert with a natural water source. Some of the oases in ancient Egypt were large enough so that people could settle there and grow fruit and grain. One oasis was actually the site of a vineyard which produced wine for the pharaoh. Bahariya Oasis, Egypt
22. Egypt: Geographical Features Quarries The ancient Egyptians quarried many different types of stone. Limestone, sandstone and granite were some of the most common stones used in making statues, and building temples and pyramids. Stone Quarry
23. Egypt: Geographical Features Mines The mines of the eastern desert produced important natural resources like gold and semi-precious stones. The ancient Egyptians used these materials to make jewellery and special objects for the pharaoh and his family, members of the nobility, and temples
27. Before Mummies: Desert Pits The earliest ancient Egyptians buried their dead in small pits in the desert. The heat and dryness of the sand dehydrated the bodies quickly, creating lifelike and natural 'mummies'.
28. From Coffins To Mummies: Later, coffins were used to protect bodies from wild animals in the desert. Bodies placed in coffins decayed when they were not exposed to the hot, dry sand of the desert. Over the years, the Egyptians perfected mummification, a method of preserving bodies so they would remain lifelike. The process included embalming the bodies and wrapping them in strips of linen.
29. Mummification: Embalming One of the embalmer's men makes a cut in the left side of the body and removes many of the internal organs. It is important to remove these because they are the first part of the body to decompose.
30. Mummification: Embalming The liver, lungs, stomach and intestines are washed and packed in natron which will dry them out. The heart is not taken out of the body because it is the centre of intelligence and feeling and the man will need it in the afterlife.
31. Mummification: Embalming A long hook is used to smash the brain and pull it out through the nose.
32. Mummification: Embalming The body is covered and stuffed with natron which will dry it out. All of the fluids, and rags from the embalming process will be saved and buried along with the body. After forty days the body is washed again with water from the Nile. Then it is covered with oils to help the skin stay elastic.
33. Mummification: Embalming The dehydrated internal organs are wrapped in linen and returned to the body. The body is stuffed with dry materials such as sawdust, leaves and linen so that it looks life like. Finally the body is covered again with good-smelling oils. It is now ready to be wrapped in linen.
34. Mummification: Embalming Lungs Liver Stomach Intestines The internal organs were removed and placed in hollow canopic jars. Over many years the embalming practices changed and embalmers began returning internal organs to bodies after the organs had been dried in natron. However, solid wood or stone canopic jars were still buried with the mummy to symbolically protect the internal organs.
35. Mummification: Wrapping First the head and neck are wrapped with strips of fine linen. Then the fingers and the toes are individually wrapped. The arms and legs are wrapped separately. Between the layers of wrapping, the embalmers place amulets to protect the body in its journey through the underworld.
36. Mummification: Wrapping This is the 'Plummet' amulet which will keep the person balanced in the next life. This is the 'Isis knot' amulet which will protect the body.
37. Mummification: Wrapping A priest reads spells out loud from the Book of the Dead while the mummy is being wrapped. These spells will help ward off evil spirits and help the deceased make the journey to the afterlife.
38. Mummification: Wrapping The arms and legs are tied together. A papyrus scroll with spells from the Book of the Dead is placed between the wrapped hands. More linen strips are wrapped around the body. At every layer, the bandages are painted with liquid resin that helps to glue the bandages together.
39. Mummification: Wrapping A cloth is wrapped around the body and a picture of the god Osiris is painted on its surface. Finally, a large cloth is wrapped around the entire mummy. A board of painted wood is placed on top of the mummy before the mummy is lowered into its coffin. The first coffin is then put inside a second coffin.
40. Mummification: Ritual & Burial The funeral is held for the deceased and his family mourns his death.
41. Mummification: Ritual & Burial A ritual called the 'Opening of the Mouth' is performed, allowing the deceased to eat and drink again.
42. Mummification: Ritual & Burial Finally, the body and its coffins are placed inside a large stone sarcophagus in the tomb. Furniture, clothing, valuable objects, food and drink are arranged in the tomb for the deceased. Now his body is ready for its journey through the underworld. There his heart will be judged by his good deeds on earth. If his heart is found to be pure he will be sent to live for all eternity in the beautiful 'Field of Reeds'.
46. Egyptian Writing Systems Hieroglyphics may have developed simultaneously with cuneiform in Sumeria. Hieroglyphics was NOT the only Egyptian form of writing. They had two others: hieratic (priestly) and demotic (popular). Where hieroglyphics was considered a sacred script and used to describe religious matters, hieratic and demotic were used for everyday matters.
47. Egyptian Scripts Three Kinds of Scripts Popular = Demotic Priestly = Hieractic Sacred = Hieroglyphics
48. Egyptian Writing Systems Hieratic script was the common script used in ancient Egypt from about 2600 B.C. to 700 B.C. The word 'hieratic' comes from the Greek word (hieratika) for the script. Hieratic was used by scribes to record everyday information, keep records and write letters.

50. Egyptian Writing Systems Demotic script became the common script in ancient Egypt from about 700 B.C. It was called 'sekh shat' ('writing for documents') by the ancient Egyptians. The word 'demotic' comes from the Greek word (demotika) for the script. Demotic was used for government records, literature and letters.

53. Making Papyrus Paper The ancient Egyptians kept most of their records on papyrus, a weed that grows in the marshes of the Nile Delta. Papyrus usually grow 2–3 meters (5–9 ft) tall, and the pith is used to make paper. Source: http://www.artlex.com/ArtLex/p/images/papyrus_live_lg.jpg
54. Making Papyrus Paper Papyrus sheets are made by a four stage process: A fresh papyrus plant is cut into long strips The strips are laid out on a flat surface in a criss-cross pattern The sheet is pressed and left to dry Sheets are joined together with glue to make long scrolls Source: http://www.nipissingu.ca/department/history/MUHLBERGER/

56. Papyrus Paper After the sheets were dried, they were used for keeping records. The sheets were then rolled up and tied with papyrus string.
57. The Scribe Not everyone learned to read and write in ancient Egypt. Only one group of people called scribes was allowed to have this knowledge. Scribes were people in ancient Egypt (usually men) who learned to read and write. Most scribes were men, but there is evidence of some female doctors. These women would have been trained as scribes so that they could read medical texts.
58. The Scribe To become a scribe, you had to attend a special school for scribes to learn how to read and write hieroglyphic and hieratic scripts. Students spent a lot of time practicing the signs by copying them onto sheets of papyrus, old pieces of pottery or flakes of limestone.
59. The Scribe Could anyone become a scribe? No. Most often it was the children of scribes who became scribes. Although some craftsmen were able to get their sons into the school for scribes, it was very rare. It could take four to five years for a person to go through scribe school.
60. The Scribe Scribes usually wrote on papyrus with reed brushes dipped in ink. The ancient Egyptians made ink by grinding brightly colored minerals into powder, then mixing the powder with liquid so that it was easier to apply.
61. Temples The Army In the Fields Scribe School Government Tombs Where Was Writing Used? What can scribes do for a living?
66. Government The government of ancient Egypt kept records about the country. This helped them work out important facts about how the country was running. For example, by looking at records from past years they could see how much grain or how many animals were collected in taxes.
68. Hieroglyphics: Overview The ancient Egyptians believed that writing was invented by the god Thoth and called their hieroglyphic script "mdwtntr" (God's Words). The word “hieroglyph” comes from the Greek hieros (sacred) plus glypho (inscriptions) and was first used by Clement of Alexandria. The earliest known examples of writing in Egypt have been dated to 3,400 BC. The latest dated inscription in hieroglyphs was made on the gate post of a temple at Philae in 396 AD.
69. Hieroglyphics: 3200 B.C. – 400 B.C. The hieroglyphic script was the most sacred of the ancient Egyptian scripts. It was used only to record important information about religion or the Pharaoh, and was used mainly for formal inscriptions on the walls of temples and tombs.
73. Hieroglyphics: 3200 B.C. – 400 B.C. By the 4th century, few Egyptians were capable of reading hieroglyphs. After the Roman Emperor Theodsius I ordered the closure of all pagan temples throughout the Roman empire in the late 4th century AD, knowledge of the hieroglyphic script was lost until the early 19th century, when Napoleon invaded Egypt and discovered the Rosetta Stone.
74. Hieroglyphics English = 26 letters, which represents sounds. Ancient Egyptian has 2,000+ hieroglyphic characters. Each hieroglyph represents a common object in ancient Egypt. Hieroglyphs could represent the sound of the object or they could represent an idea associated with the object. Remember the “rebus”? A rebus is a modern type of hieroglyph. A rebus is a picture puzzle that can be "sounded out" by reading the sounds symbolized by the pictures.
75. Hieroglyphic Alphabet The basic hieroglyph characters are referred to as the ALPHABET. They 'spell out' names or anything which can't be represented by other characters. The alphabet characters are read as the sound of the object they represented. Although vowels were used in the spoken language, they were not usually written unless it might be confusing if left out.
76. HieroglyphicBilaterals Biliterals are hieroglyphs which were substituted in place of pairs of alphabet characters. g m gm += The sound of the biliteral hieroglyph is the same as the sound of the alphabet characters it replaces. Biliterals 'streamline' writings by eliminating large numbers of simpler characters.
77. Hieroglyphic Determinatives Determinatives don't represent sounds. The meanings they imply help eliminate confusion by putting the writings in proper context. These special characters clarify a statement by carrying a distinct meaning. The appearance of a determinative put the writing in context based on its meaning. Remember the rebus?
78. Hieroglyphic Determinatives It has several possible meanings: We could eliminate confusion by adding a determinative. Eye Heart U I Heart Ewe I Love You
79. Hieroglyphic Determinatives This symbol is usually seen around Valentine's Day. It is associated with Cupid, the Roman god of love. By shooting someone with his arrow, Cupid caused them to fall in love. Use of this symbol implies that the statement relates to matters of love and emotion, and effectively makes "I Love You" the only choice.
80. Hieroglyphic Determinatives Means the phrase written in hieroglyphics refers to a scribe, or to something being written Scribe tools Means the phrase written in hieroglyphics has something to do with time, daytime, or the sun itself. The Sun
81. Hieroglyphic Standards “Standards” are things that help languages stay consistent and help people understand how to read and write it no matter where you are, or who teaches you the language. For example, in English: We always write from left to write We have grammatical structure We have a dictionary to keep spelling consistent
82. Hieroglyphic Standards Hieroglyphic writing was written in columns or rows. Reading direction is determined by the direction that human and animal figures faced. Reading starts from the direction that figures face and continues in the opposite direction. But they were usually written left to right. Hieroglyphs could be written left to right.
83. Hieroglyphic Standards Columns were read down as we would read lines down a page. The Egyptians liked symmetry. If hieroglyphs were inscribed in a column, they would often inscribe the same text in the opposite column, except with the writing reversed.
84. Hieroglyphic Numbers In our modern system of numbering, numbers are counted in units of 10. A zero written to the right of a number indicates the number is increased ten times. EXAMPLE 10 = 1 X 10 100 = 1 X 10 X 10 1,000 = 1 X 10 X 10 X 10
85. Hieroglyphic Numbers 10 characters (0-9) are used in the modern numbering system to represent all possible numbers. The position of a character within a larger number is important to defining its value. Each character to the right implies a zero which increases the value of that number by ten times. EXAMPLE = 700 + 50 + 1 751 = 7 + 5 + 1
86. Hieroglyphic Numbers The Egyptian numbering system was also based on units of 10, but instead of relying on the position of numbers to define their value, the Egyptians used different images to represent different units of 10. 10,000 10 1 100 1,000 100,000
87. Hieroglyphic Numbers To write a number, the hieroglyph representing each unit of ten would simply be drawn as many times as was necessary 500 = 457 =
88. Hieroglyphic Fractions Modern fractions contain both a numerator and a denominator. The denominator represents the total number of portions, and the numerator represents the number of those portions that we are measuring.
89. Hieroglyphic Fractions With hieroglyphic fractions the numerator is always assumed to be 1, only the denominator varies. Fractions use the same hieroglyph characters as numbers. Placing the symbol above or alongside number hieroglyphs shows the number is a fraction. EXAMPLES: 1/2 is written as: 1/3 is written as: 3/4 is like saying ½ + ¼:
90. Eye of Horus In the Egyptian language, the word for this symbol was "Wedjat".
91. The Story of the Eye of Horus Horus was a solar and sky god of Lower Egypt who had the head of a falcon and the body of a man. He is the son of the god Osiris and the goddess Isis. He is associated with vitality, health and regeneration. His right eye was white, and represented the sun, and his left eye was black, and represented the moon.
92. The Story of the Eye of Horus According to Egyptian mythology, Horus often battled Set, the god of Upper Egypt. At some point, Set killed Horus’s father, Osiris. To avenge this death, Horus fought Seth and lost his left eye in the fight. Thoth, the God of magic and the moon, used his powers to reassemble Horus’s eye and returned it to Horus. On presenting his eye to his father, Osiris was reborn.
93. The Eye of Horus and the Rx Symbol The pharmacological symbol “Rx” has its origins in the Eye of Horus
94. Eye of Horus Fractions The symbol representing his eye, Eye of Horus, was a powerful symbol used to protect from evil. Pronounced "udjat" by the Egyptians, the Eye of Horus represents a human eye with the cheek markings of a falcon.
95. Eye of Horus Fractions The Eye of Horus fraction system was based on the Eye of Horus symbol. This system was used to record prescriptions, land and grain. Fractions are created by combining sections of the Eye of Horus symbol. Each section has a different value. The complete Eye of Horus with all parts in place has a value of 1. In reality the complete Eye of Horus represents 63/64, which is rounded off to 1.
