본 연구에서는 국내 암석을 암종별로 총 292개 채취하였으며 열물성 측정 장비를 이용하여 이들 암석의 열물성을 측정하였다. 이와 더불어 암석의 물리적 특성을 측정하였으며 일부 시료의 경우 XRD 정량분석을 실시하였다. 이들 결과를 이용하여 암석의 열물성 특성과 열물성에 영향을 주는 인자를 파악하였다. 암석의 열물성 측정 결과 열전도도와 열확산계수는 화강암에서 가장 낮은 값을 보였으며 퇴적암, 변성암 순으로 나타났다. 또한 암종별 열물성 값의 범위를 살펴보면 변성암과 퇴적암에서 넓게 분포한다. 암석의 물성과 열물성과의 상관성 분석 결과 공극률이 증가함에 따라 열전도도와 열확산계수가 감소하나 상관성은 미약한 것으로 나타났다. XRD 분석 결과 암석의 열전도도는 석영($SiO_2$)의 함량에 따른 선형의 비례관계를 보였다. 이로써 암석의 열전도도는 암석을 이루는 광물의 종류에 의하여 영향을 받음을 알 수 있다. 차후 암석의 구성 광물입자의 배열 상태에 따른 열물성 특성과 퇴적암 및 변성암 시료에 대한 이방성 실험을 통해 편리, 층리 및 엽리 등에 따른 열물생의 이방성 정도를 분석할 예정이다.

Hydrated halloysite was formed by the low temperature alteration of trachytic tuff in onion-like spherical or curly platy forms. The Si content was higher than that of ideal kaolin minerals, indicating the possible presence of amorphous materials. The high Fe content is responsible for the platy morphology of halloysite. The leached ions precipitated as halloysite filling the interparticle pores, while trachytic glass was replaced by Si-rich amorphous materials in an hemispherical form, which was further evolved into spherical halloysite. Halloysite is one of the major alteration products of the volcanic ash in Ulleung Island underwent intense trachytic volcanism.

Montmorillonite is one of representative inorganic clay particles. As the characteristics of clay particulate matter in aqueous environment determine the efficiencies of wastewater treatment and some industrial operations, it is essential to understand its aquatic behavior in relation with turbidity. The change of electrokinetic potential of montmorillonite suspension shows that it tends to negatively increase as the pH of suspension increases. In addition, it is observed that its potential is around 0mV when the solution pH is ca. 5. The turbidity of suspension is shown to be very low when pH is lower than its isoelectric point. However, the turbidity gradually enhances according to beyond isoelectric point. These results reveal that the correlation between electrokinetic potential and turbidity for clay mineral suspension is peculiar which should be fundamentally considered for systematic treatment of wastewater.

생석회, 소석회, 경소돌로마이트, 경질탄산칼슘 생산을 위한 필수제조공정인 소성기술은 원료 석회석, 연료, 석회소성로의 응용에 따라 각 생산제품의 품질을 다양하게 변환시켜 석회사용용도에 적합하도록 석회제품을 생산하는 기술이다. 석회석 소성품질은 석회석의 크기 및 입자범위, 석회석의 화학성분, 결정형태, 고체연료와 유체연료의 사용구분, 석회소성로의 소성온도, 소성시간에 따라 소성도 및 반응성이 달라져 소성제품인 석회의 품질상태가 다양해진다. 예를 들면 사용되는 제강용 석회는 매우 빠른 반응성이 요구되고 카바이트용 석회는 매우 낮은 반응성이 요구되는데 현실적으로 석회를 제조할 경우 동일한 소성로안에서 일정한 소성온도, 소성시간을 같게 하여도 석회석의 크기가 다르고, 석회석 한 개체는 표면과 내부와의 소성온도의 차이가 있기 때문에 소성도와 반응성이 동일하지 않다. 동일한 소성도 및 반응성을 갖는 석회제품을 생산하기 위한 방법 중 낮은 소성온도의 장시간 소성방법은 높은 생산비용으로 경제성이 문제된다. 따라서 최적의 석회제품을 생산하기 위해서는 먼저 석회 활용 용도에 맞는 품질기준을 설정하여 그에 적합한 소성기술의 응용이 필요하다.

수평형 지중열교환기의 최적설계를 위해서는 되메움재의 광물특성 및 입자크기, 열전도도(thermal conductivity), 열용량(heat capacity)등과 같은 열적 특성을 파악 하는 것은 중요하다. 수평형 지중 열교환기용 되메움재의 열전도도를 파악하기 위해 비정상 열선법을 적용한 QTM-500을 사용하여 포화도에 따른 천연규사-물-공기 혼합물의 열전도도를 측정하였다. 측정된 열전도도를 개별요소법(Discrete Element Mothod)에 근거한 2차원 수치해석 프로그램인 PFC2D(Particle Flow Code in 2 Dimension)를 이용하여 비교 분석하였다. 수치해석에서는 혼합물의 건조밀도를 일정하게 유지한 상태에서 포화도에 따라 가상의 물 입자 개수를 변화시켰다. 개별요소법을 이용한 열전달 수치해석에서는 입자의 접촉을 통해 발생한 thermal pipe에 의해 열전달이 이루어진다. 이러한 thermal pipe의 열전도도는 접촉된 두 입자의 열전도도와 접촉면의 평균 열전도도를 고려하여 적용하였다.

Particle crushing is an important and essential factor in interpreting the strength and deformation properties of granular materials in the case of geotechnical problems related to soil crushability. As a recent field problem, the exploitation of offshore oil reserves in tropical and sub-tropical coastal shelf areas has shown that the behaviour of soils containing carbonates is markedly different from predominantly silica sands. In this study, as a first step in making a mechanical framework of granular materials incorporating the soil crushability, single particle fragmentation tests were carried out on four different types of sands in order to clarify the characteristics of the single particle fragmentation strength as related to soil crushability. The single particle strength was considered with the influence of the particle shapes, the amount of mineral components and the particle sizes. The soil particle strength corresponding $D_{50}$ of soil distribution curve has shown the lower value, the more the carbonate component and the more angular the particle shape.

We observed characteristic oxidation and dissolution phenomena induced by dissolved oxygen for mackinawite that is produced via sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) living in anaerobic environments such as soils and groundwater. We tried to recognize the role of the sulfide minerals that usually coexist with some stabilized radionuclides (e.g., reduced uranium), which can be reoxidized and redissolved by an oxygen-rich groundwater invaded into a contaminated area. The mackinawite produced by 'Desulfovibrio desulfuricans', a sulfate-reducing bacterium, was conducted to be dissolved for 2 weeks by some oxidants such as 'hydrogen peroxide' and 'sodium nitrite'. Although mineralogical oxidation and dissolution characteristics were different from each other according to the oxidants, the initially oxidized solution was early stabilized through the oxygen consumption by ${\mu}m$-sized sulfide particles and the resultant increase of sulfate in solution. From these results, we can anticipate that the large amount of sulfide minerals generated by SRB can not only repress the anoxic environment to be disturbed by the consumption of oxygen in groundwater, but also contribute to stabilize the reduced/precipitated radionuclides as a buffer material for a long time.

Induced polarization (IP) is useful for mineral exploration and hydrogeological studies by visualizing the electrochemical reactions at the interface between polarized minerals and groundwater. Frequency-domain IP (FDIP) is not actively applied to field surveys because it takes longer to acquire data, despite its higher data quality than conventional time-domain IP. However, data quality is more important in current mineral exploration as the targets gradually shift to deep or low-grade ore bodies. In addition, the measurement time reduced by automated instrumentation increases the potential for FDIP field applications. Therefore, we demonstrate that FDIP can detect mineral exploration targets by performing geophysical logging in the boreholes of a skarn deposit, in South Korea. Alternating current (AC) resistivity, percent frequency effect (PFE) and metal factor (MF) were calculated from impedance values obtained at two different frequencies. Skarn zones containing magnetite or pyrite showed relatively low AC resistivity, high PFE, and high MF compared to other zones. Therefore, FDIP surveys are considered to be useful for mineral exploration.

Detailed knowledge on maskelynite, a glassy phase of plagioclase found in shocked meteorites and impact craters, is essential to understand a shock metamorphism. Here, we explore an inhomogeneous shock metamorphism in the lunar meteorite Mount DeWitt (DEW) 12007 with an aim to understand the formation mechanism of maskelynite. Most plagioclase grains in the DEW 12007 partially amorphized into maskelynite with a unidirectional orientation. Back-scattered electron (BSE) images of maskelynite show a remnant of planar deformation fracture possibly indicating that the maskelynite would be formed by solid-state transformation(i.e., diaplectic glass). Plagioclase with flow texture is also observed along the rim of maskelynite, which would be a result of recrystallization of melted plagioclase. Results of Raman experiments suggest that shock pressure for plagioclase and maskelynite in the DEW 12007 is approximately 5-32 GPa and 26-45 GPa, respectively. The difference in shock pressures between plagioclase and maskelynite can be originated from 1) external factors such as inhomogeneous shock pressure and/or 2) internal factors such as chemical composition and porosity of rock. Unfortunately, Raman spectroscopy has a limitation in revealing the detailed atomic structure of maskelynite such as development of six- or five-coordinated aluminum atom upon various shock pressure. Further studies using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy are necessary to understand the formation mechanism of maskelynite under high pressure.
