충남 예산-공주-청양지역의 대흥, 평안, 신양(청당)광산에서 산출되는 녹니석에 관하여 화학적 및 성인적 연구를 하였다. 이들 광상은 초염기성암기원의 사문암이 열수변질작용을 받아 생성되었다. 활석 광석의 주 구성 광물은 활석, 녹니석, 금운모, 각섬석류, 사문석, 탄산염광물 등이고 이밖에 감람석, 휘석류, 크롬철석, 스멕타이트, 녹니석/스멕타이트의 혼합층상광물들과 같은 팽윤성 광물들이 소량 산출된다. 이 중 감람석과 크롬철석은 광상의 초염기성암 기원을 지시하는 중요한 광물이다.녹니석은 활석 광석의 불순 광물 중 가장 많은 양을 차지하는 광물이다. 이들 녹니석은 성인적으로 활석과 밀접하게 연관된 녹니석과 그렇지 않은 녹니석의 두 가지 뚜렷한 타입으로 나뉘어지며 이들은 화학적으로 명확한 차이를 보인다. 전자의 녹니석은 Mg/(Mg+Fe)비가 높으며 매우 일정한 범위의 Mg/(Mg+Fe)qkl (0.784∼0.951/산소수 14 기준)를 보여주고, 높은 8면체 치환양 (0.892 (-0.200∼0.692)/산소수 14, 이상적인 클리노클로어/차모사이트 성분 기준)과 넓은 범위의 Al 함량 변화 (2.975 (1.085∼3.160)/산소수 14 기준), 높은 Cr, Ni 함량을 갖는다. 이들은 매우 제한되고 높은 Mg/(Mg+Fe)비를 갖는 환경에서 생성되었으며 따라서,활석과 밀접하게 연관된 녹니석은 생성시, 주변암에 둘러싸여 있는, 초염기성암 기원의 사문암에 의해 주로영향을 받았다. 후자의 녹니석은 전자의 녹니석에 비하여 Fe 함량이 더 놓으며 광범한 범위의 Mg/(Mg+Fe)비 (0.378∼0.852/산소수 14 기준)를 보여주고, 더 적은 범위의 8면체 치환양 (0.560 (-0.035∼0.525)/산소수 14, 이상적인 클리오클로어/차모사이트 성분 기준)과, 전반적으로는 더 높은 값을 가지면서 더 좁은 범위의 Al 함량 변화 (1.491 (1.468∼2.959)/산소수 14 기준)를 보여주며, 낮은 Cr, Ni 함량을 갖는다. 이들은 낮은 Mg/(Mg+Fe)비를 갖고 전자에 비해 Al이 풍부한 환경에서 생성되었으며, 따라서 활석과 연관되지 않은 녹니석은 생성시 광체와 인접한 화강아질 편마암에 의해 주로영향을 받았을 것으로 생각된다. 녹니석의 이러한 2가지 화학조성상의 경향은 녹니석과 공존하는 운모류나 각섬석류들의 화학분석결과와도 잘 일치한다. 이러한 결과는 이 지역의 활석 광상이 초염기성암 기원의 사문암이 열수변질작용을 받아 생성되었음을 명확하게 지시하며, 따라서 활석 광석내에 존재하는 녹니석은 활석의 근원 광물로서 녹니석편암 및 녹니석 편마암 매의 녹니석이 활석화되고 남은 잔존광물이 아니라, 주변암에 의해 성분상의 영향을 받은 열수와 사문암과의 변질교대작용에 의한 활석화과정 중에 주로 생성된 것으로 추정된다. 이러한 결과는 연구지역의 활석광상이 초염기성암의 사문암화 작용과 활석화 작용의 두 가지 변질작용에 의해 형성되어졌음을 알려준다.

Margarite, which occurs in the Unkyori Formation of Miwon area, Chungcheongbukdo, South Korea, was investigated using the petrographic microscope, back-scattered electron images (BSEI), and electron probe microanalyzer (EPMA) to characterize the alteration textures and mineral chemistries. Most margarite crystals are inhomogeneous, and chlorite was commonly observed to occur at the boundaries parallel to the rim of margarite. Cracks occur across the basal plane of the margarite, and margarite is partly replaced by chlorite along the cracks. In additon, muscovite and biotite are intergrown in margarite and chlorite crystals, suggesting that margarite was partially altered to chlorite as well as to muscovite and biotite. Chemical analysis data show that paragonite solid solution in the margarite is approximately 19.6 mol%, but clintonite solid solution is negligible. Margarite crystals in the Unkyori Formation cut or penetrate other metamorphic minerals In the same thin sections and are oriented randomly without any relationship with the foliation of host rocks, indicating that formed as a secondary mineral after peak metamorphism. Furthermore, it seems that hydrothermal fluids associated with the Mesozoic intrusions developed near the sample are closely related to the margarite formation.

This study was carried out to investigate the composition and diagenesis of the carbonate rocks from the seamounts in the Federated States of Micronesia, Central Pacific. Most of the samples were dredged from the water depth of about 1000-3000 m mainly in Chuuk Island, Hunter Bank, Caroline Ridge and Yap Trench. The carbonate rocks are either pelagic sediment mainly of planktonic foraminifera or shallow-marine sediment of corals, calcareous algae, mollusks and echinoderms. The rocks are altered texturally and chemically, except for those from the Hunter Bank and Yap A. The presence of shallow-marine cements suggests that the carbonate sediment has been subsided or reworked to the present water depth after deposition in shallow-marine environments. The texture of the carbonate sediment is reminiscent of meteoric diagenesis; however, the stable carbon isotopic composition of the altered rock samples shows affinity with that of sea water and the oxygen isotopic values are slightly enriched or same as compared to those of unaltered samples. These stable isotopic data suggest that the carbonate sediment of the study area has been diagenetically altered in the present deep-marine environment.

The Gwangtonggyo(bridge) on the Cheonggyecheon(river) is mainly composed of biotite granite with coarse grain. The rock consists mainly of quartz, plagioclase, microcline, orthoclase and biotite with lesser amount of muscovite, sericite and chlorite. Muscovite and sericite may be formed from feldspars and chlorite from biotite by alteration(including weathering). These rocks are relatively deteriorated by weathering, polluted water running the river and heavy traffic. The main phenomena of damages are surface exfoliation, grain separation, deceleration, pollution of organic and heavy chemical elements, cracks and breakage. These phenomena have been analyzed by polarized microscope, XRD and SEM/EDX. The analyzed results show organic pollution and secondarily formed gypsum and apatite on the rock surface and micro-pores. NaCl and $CaCO_3$ as rock salt and calcite probably may be formed secondarily in some points. Also heavy chemical elements such as Cr, Pb, Pd, W, La, Zn and Nd are polluted in some samples. The contacts between rocks are generally breakdown in small scale or cracks are developed due to mainly load and vibration shock of heavy traffic.

In the Pohang-Gampo area, several diatomite beds occurred in mostly thinner than 1 m are embedded in the Pohang Formation of marine environment and the pyroclastic Eoil Formation. The diatomite from the Eoil Formation is constituting the high-grade ore altered slightly by diagenesis. In contrast, the diatomite intercalated within the upper horizon of the Yeonil Group is comparatively low-grade and highly altered in places. During diagenesis, an increasing of crystallinity of opal, i.e., the original mineral component of diatom, results in ultimately the mineral transition to quartz with accompanying a drastic change in morphology and texture of the altered diatomite. The diagenetic alteration appears to have undergone by way of the chemical diagenesis, which is largely controlled by degree of fluid contact, rather than burial diagenesis. For the diatomite from the Pohang-Gampo area, careful SEM observations, XRD, chemical analyses, and determination of specific surface area were done to identify the fossil species, mineral and chemical composition, and other physical properties in the view of assesment of grade and quality. The domestic diatomite ores are evaluated to be not good in grade and quality, compared to those of famous foreign localities. However, some diatomite deposits of marin,: origin from the Pohang Formation is constituting a peculiar clay-rich type, i.e., moler applicable to the special usage such as a manufacturing of lightweight brick. Because such a diatomite is frequently intercalated relatively as a thicker bed in the upper part of the Yeonil Group, a systematic and careful investigation should be done for the exploitation and development of an economic diatomite deposit of the moler type.

We report fluid inclusion study results of copper-bearing quartz veins in Zogdor area, which is located within the Gurvansayhan island arc terrane of Southern Mongolia. At the Zogdor area, structurecontrolled copper mineralization is hosted in granodiorite-porphyry, which emplaced in the late Cretaceous formation. Within this granodiorite porphyry, copper-bearing quartz veins are associated with the hydrothermal alteration that includes quartz-epidote-magnetite, and quartz-magnetite in the propylitic zones. The veins are classified into two types, according to their mineral composition, which occur mainly as chalcopyrite, rare amounts of bornite, magnetite, and pyrite. Fluid inclusions in the quartz veins from the quartz-magnetite±chalcopyrite and quartz-epidote-magnetite veins are two-phase aqueous inclusions having bubble sizes of 5-30 vol.%, evident salinities of 2.0-22.6 wt.% NaCl, and homogenization temperatures of 107-270℃. Based on mineral assemblages of the observed veins, along with the geochemical properties and alteration faces of the host rock, fluid inclusion data show that the study area corresponds to propylitic alteration zone in the porphyry Cu related mineralization.

Weathering of hornfels pebble in the marine terrace deposits, Yangnam-Myon, Gyeongju was investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and chemical analysis. In the early stage of weathering, only plagioclase was leached leaving pores. With progress of weathering, biotite and chlorite were tranformed to hydrobiotite and chlorite-vermiculite, respectively. Quartz, K-feldspar, and muscovite were not altered. Thickness of weathering rinds and their mineralogical characteristics were different between terraces of different elevations. In the lower second terrace, the weathering of pebble was dominated by the decomposition of plagioclase, while in the upper third terrace, weathering was characterized by the transformation of biotite and chlorite with precipitation of halloysite from the weathering of plagioclase. Thickness of weathering rind and weathering products were varied even within the same terrace deposit probably due to local variation of drainage conditions.

청과물은 품종, 재배기술, 환경의 요인 등에 영향을 받아 품질, 형상, 색택, 병충해의 상해정도가 다르게 나타남에 따라 농산물의 다양한 상품성이 결정된다. 또한 수확, 저장, 포장. 수송, 상하차 등 유통과정에서의 취급여하에 따라 기계적으로 손상을 받음은 물론 유통기간이 길어짐에 따라 호흡 및 증산작용 등 생리적 작용으로 부패 및 변질이 진행되어 유통과정 중 농산물의 품질저하가 상당한 수준에 이르고 있으나, 이에 대한 관심은 매우 빈약한 실정이다. (중략)

The Kimhae napseok clay deposit was studied to characterize its mineralogy and genesis. Geology of the deposit is composed of Tertiary volcanic rocks and granodiorite. Tertiary volcanic rocks consist of andesitic tuff with minor interstratified tuffaceous shale, and rhyodacitic tuff. The main ore body of 2.4 to 4 m in thickness developed parallel to the bedding of andesitic tuff bed. Its strike and dip are $N70^{\circ}E-N85^{\circ}E$ and $16^{\circ}NW-32^{\circ}NW$, respectively. Two alteration zones; the propylitic zone of albite-epidote-chlorite-quartz assemblage and advanced argillic zone of pyrophyllite-dickite-alunite-diaspore assemblage are developed. Correlation of $SiO_2$ to $Al_2O_3$ shows no relation in propylitic zone, while a negative linear relation in advanced argillic zone. Chemical variation shows that $SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, MgO, CaO, $Na_2O$ and $K_2O$ were leached out during hydrothermal alteration. Pyrophyllite, the most abundant mineral in advanced argillic zone, occurs as low temperature 2M polytype. It is closely associated with dickite, diaspore and alunite. The Hinckley index of dickite is 0.83 showing moderate crystallinity. Na content is increasing in the M site with the increasing content of cations in the R-site. the mole percent of Na replacing K in alunite ranges from 53.2 to 71.6. It is also found that pyrophyllite grows in the dissolution site of diaspore. Plagioclase was albitized. Lowering of pH caused mainly by sulfide and sulfate decomposition resulted in preferential leaching of Si. It is inferred that aluminum released from plagioclase in the volcanic rocks as well as from the tuffaceous shale intercalated in andesitic tuff were the main sources of aluminum required for the formation of clay deposit. pH in hydrothermal fluid decreased from propylitic zone to advanced argillic zone with increasing degree of alteration. Based on experimental data reported in the literature and mineral assemblages, the formation temperature of the deposit ranges 270 to $320^{\circ}C$.
