Sequence Stratigraphy, Variable Sedimentations, Sea Level Fluctuations and Ne...Premier Publishers
GX1 and GX2 wells are located at the Western and South Eastern Miocene Niger Delta Basin respectively. Cored depth for GX1 was 113.5m while that of GX2 was 23.6m. GX1 well is situated within the coastal Swamp of the Niger Delta. It is made up of mostly tidal sands with multiple cycles of fining upwards sequences. These high frequency packages are as a result of local transgressions and regressions. Each parasequence represents regressive set in a prograding sea. High sedimentation and reduced accommodation following lowered sea level resulted in thick layers of sandstone. Reverse is also true. Tidal form structures predominated wave structures. GX2 well located in Shallow Offshore comprised fine sands, silts and shale alternations. Sedimentary wave and tide structures were observed. It is a progradational sequence that commenced with thick shale followed by thin alternations of shale and silt/sand. The fluctuations in sea level in GX2 well are more frequent than in GX1. This is quite significant with thick volumes of sandstones in GX1 cores and thin beds of shale, silts/sands in GX2 cores. Sandstone pinchout was seen in basal shale. The Stratigraphic modelling of both wells places GX2 well above the sequence boundary observed at the top of GX1.The pattern of sea level fluctuations and sedimentation in both tidal environment and shoreface resulted to sharp variations in measured core porosity and permeability. GX1 has average core porosity of 23% and average permeability of 7,000mD, and while GX2 has average core porosity of 29.3% and average permeability 1007mD.

The document summarizes the design and construction of the foundations for the Rion Antirion Bridge in Greece. Key points:
1) The foundations used an innovative design of large diameter gravity caissons resting on reinforced natural ground, with steel tubular inclusions and a gravel layer, to address weak soil conditions, seismic activity, and tectonic movements.
2) Subsurface investigations found deep alluvial deposits with low strength and shear wave velocities, posing challenges for the large bridge piers.
3) The foundation concept used capacity design principles, with the gravel layer absorbing inelastic deformations and inclusions providing overstrength to prevent deep failures, allowing sliding if design loads were exceeded.
The document summarizes the geological setting and engineering challenges for constructing a suspension bridge where the bedrock is granite located beneath 300m of glacial till and 200m of unconsolidated silt and mud, with the ends anchored in highly fractured shale that dips toward the water. Some of the challenges discussed include water ingress through fractures in the shale increasing weathering, slope failures due to clay expansion in the shale, and rapid scouring of the shale. The document outlines solutions such as anchoring directly into bedrock instead of shale, using concrete slabs with rock bolts over fractured shale areas, and locating anchor placements in zones with minor shale fractures. Bridge maintenance procedures are also briefly discussed.
Source rock maturation studies using vitrinite reflectance and geothermal dat...Premier Publishers
The source rock maturation levels of six wells in GABO and WABI fields, Niger delta sedimentary basin were evaluated using vitirinite reflectance and geothermal data. The results of the analysis show that the source rocks are mature. Vitrinite reflectance was measured and analyzed in all wells containing greater than 1.0 percent Total organic carbon content (TOC). The thermal alternation index (TAI) values obtained show that temperature was sufficiently good to generate hydrocarbons in the source rock indicating the maturity of the source rock. The GABO and WABI fields have a good range of Vitrinite reflectance values which probably indicate the temperature that were reached in the fields. The average reflectance of Vitrinite in GABO and WABI fields are 0.35 and 0.75, respectively. These values are consistent and suggest that basinal source rocks have begun to generate hydrocarbon.
Concept of oc mine planning & design(final)sou_suk_sou

Distribution of petroleum product within the oil rich Niger Delta area of Nigeria is a daunting
task because of its deltaic nature. To solve this challenge, fixed fuel dispensing stations will be built in the
coastal environment to receive and make supplies available to fishermen and marine transporters. Building of
such fuel stations require proper foundation design. Soil test results of the region was obtained and a foundation
design was made to ascertain the number of piles pile depth, pile spacing, skin friction, lateral load bearing
capacity and end bearing capacity. API codes where used to check and ensure that the results obtained are
within safety limits. This will ensure that the offshore structure completes it intended and designed life span.
The document provides background information on using vertical electrical sounding (VES) to study groundwater distribution in basement rock terrains. It discusses:
1) Groundwater in basement rocks occurs in weathered zones and fractures, which VES can help characterize. VES measures resistivity changes with depth to interpret subsurface layers.
2) Four VES soundings were conducted in a village in Nigeria to investigate the subsurface for borehole siting. Preliminary interpretation of VES curves provides insight into the geologic settings and potential water-bearing layers.
3) Typical earth material resistivities are listed, with weathered basement rock and fractures expected to host groundwater. Integrating VES with geology can aid groundwater
ACCRETIONARY PRISM MODEL OF DOLOMITIZATION?Omar Radwan
The document outlines a proposed new model for dolomitization involving accretionary prism settings. It discusses existing dolomitization models and the characteristics of accretionary prisms. It presents evidence from the Peru and Barbados accretionary margins that dolomite occurs in association with fluid expulsion along faults in accretionary wedges. The author hypothesizes that dolomitization can result from fluid flow driven by tectonic processes in accretionary prisms, providing alkaline, magnesium-rich fluids ideal for dolomitization. The model suggests accretionary prism settings could predict new geological environments for dolomitization.
This document discusses factors that influence the selection of bench height in open pit mining. The key considerations for bench height include planned production requirements, existing equipment size, safety regulations, and future equipment upgrades. Proper bench design is important for controlling blast depths, pit wall slopes, and wall stability. The optimal bench height balances higher stripping costs of flatter slopes with increased stability, while steeper slopes risk failures and cleanup costs outweighing production benefits. Common failure modes in pit walls include planar, wedge, circular, and toppling failures.
Porphyry copper deposits form around quartz monzonite to granodiorite intrusions and are characterized by concentric zoning of copper-bearing mineralization and alteration shells. They can be over 1-2 square kilometers in size and contain over 0.5% copper on average. Porphyry deposits are responsible for approximately 60% of the world's copper production and also produce significant amounts of molybdenum, gold, and silver.
MAX is exploring for gold, silver, and copper in Nevada. Drilling at the Majuba Hill property intercepted near surface high-grade silver and copper mineralization, with assays up to 2 oz/t silver equivalent over wide intervals, indicating potential for an open pit deposit. Drilling is also underway at the East Manhattan Wash gold property to determine the vertical extent of gold mineralization identified over a large area at surface. MAX has a low market capitalization and experienced management team exploring bulk tonnage deposit opportunities in Nevada.
Open pit mining involves digging a large hole or pit at the earth's surface to extract ore deposits near the surface. Overburden or waste rock is removed to expose the ore body, which is then extracted using large excavating equipment like shovels and haul trucks. Ore is transported from the pit either by truck or conveyor belt to a processing facility. Open pit mining provides high productivity and low costs but requires significant capital investment and can have large environmental impacts due to the large scale of surface disturbance. It is best suited to deposits that are relatively shallow and large in area.

This document summarizes the design of a retaining structure to stabilize a section of highway affected by slope failures. A combination system using soldier piles, rock anchors, and ground improvement piles was developed to support the road formation and account for varying bedrock depths. Soldier piles were used where bedrock was shallow, and were anchored with rock anchors where overburden was thicker. Ground improvement piles were used where bedrock was deepest. The detailed design specified pile sizes and spacing based on bedrock depth, and rock anchors were installed through soldier piles below road level. This hybrid system provided stabilization while accommodating site conditions in a cost-effective manner.

Retrogressed 3.4 – 2.9 Ga granulite facies gneisses
intercalated with supracrustal rocks (amphibolites of
volcano-sedimentary origin). The supracrustal rocks
occur in belts up to 6 km wide folded into dome and
basin patterns.
Meteorite Impact: A distinctive mass of finely crushed
and homogenised quartzo-feldspathic material,
previously mapped as granitic gneiss and now referred
to as the Finnefjeld Domain, has recently been
interpreted to represent the core of a deeply eroded
Archean age (~3.0 ga) impact structure (Garde et al.,
2012).
Ni-Cu-Co-PGM mineralization is hosted by noritic and
related mafic-ultramafic intrusions (shown in purple on
the adjacent map). These intrusions represent
contaminated, mantle-derived, nickel-rich, ultramafic
magma emplaced in a conduit system, possibly
triggered by the impact.

Nickeliferous norite intrusions are concentrated in, but
not exclusive to, an arcuate belt 75 km long by 15 km
known as the Greenland Norite Belt that wraps around
the east and south margins of the Finnefjeld Domain.
Individual norite bodies range in size from several
square meters to 8 km2.
Pronounced northeast trending faults apparent in the
regional aeromagnetic and topographic data appear to
have controlled the emplacement of the nickeliferous
norites at ~3.0 Ga, Proterozoic mafic dykes as well as
three 3 episodes of lamprophyre intrusion (1800, 1200

Samples selected by NAN that were used in the study (assays by ActLabs).
• All three samples show high potential nickel recovery.
Mineralogically limiting grade-recovery curves indicate
maximum potential nickel grades of 35% at recoveries of 84
to 87%.
• Pentlandite is the main nickel-bearing mineral and contains
95.5 to 96.3% of all the nickel in the samples. Silicate hosted
nickel comprises less than 1% of all the nickel.
• Pentlandite P80 grain sizes range from 53 to 65 μm.
• Total potentially floatable pentlandite ranges from 96.3 to
97.6%.
• Entirely hosted by chalcopyrite.
• Chalcopyrite P80 grain sizes range from 30 to 40 μm.
• Mineralogically limiting grade-recovery curves indicate
maximum potential copper grades of 34% at recoveries of 52
to 77%.
• Total potentially floatable chalcopyrite ranges from 87.1 to

Mantle melting perhaps in response to a giant impact.
Hot ultramafic magma flows to surface through a
“conduit system” comprised of restricted conduits and
larger magma chambers.
Hot magma assimilates country rock (locally sulphidic)
resulting in sulphur saturation and production of a
sulphide liquid.
Ni+Cu+Co±PGE sulphide collects in zones of lower
velocity within the conduit system.
Continual magma flow upgrades the nickel tenor of
sulphide already deposited.
Magmatism eventually ceases and conduit system is
preserved as noritic rock.
Over time, uplift and erosion expose parts of the
magma conduit system and some of the
Ni+Cu+Co±PGE sulphides.Modified after Maier et al., 2001
