A zeolitic bentonite, which exhibits whitish appearance and contains considerable amounts (nearly 〉 5%) of zeolites, frequently occurs as thin beds less than 1 m in Yeongil area. The bentonites are mostly found in closely association with zeolite beds in the Nuldaeri Tuff and Coal-bearing formations of the Janggi Croup. A discordant occurrence of the bentonite against the bedding plane is also locally found. Montmorillonite, the major mineral constituent of the bentonite, is mostly associated with clinoptilolite as a zeolite. However, instead of clinoptilolite, mordenite is sometimes included in the case of more silicic bentonite, and heulandite in the less silicic one. It is characteristic that the mordenite is accompanied by lots of opal-CT in the silicic bentonite. SEM observations characteristically indicate that these authigenic phases, especially the montmorillonite and zeolite, nearly coexist as mixtures not forming a fine-scale zoning. The zeolitic bentonite seems to be formed in the comparatively silicic pore fluid at the alkaline condition accompanying pH fluctuation Compared to the zeolite-free normal bentonite, the zeolitic types exhibit somewhat higher REE abundance. These chemical characteristics, together with modes of occurrences and authigenic mineral associations, may suggest that the zeolitic bentonite is not merely diagenetic products and a possible hydrothermal alteration could not be excluded in the bentonite genesis.

The occurrence, mineralogical characteristics, and origin of the dolomite ores were investigated from major dolomite mines in South Korea. Mineralogical and textural properties of the ores and associated minerals were analyzed using X-ray diffraction, thin section petrography, and scanning electron microscopy. Dolomite ores were light to dark gray in color and mainly composed of dolomite in varying particle size with minor amounts of calcite, quartz and micas. Calcite, quartz, illite, feldspar, kaolin minerals, and chlorite occurred in local veins, dikes and alteration zones. Sepiolite and wollastonite occurred in the altered part of some mine. Asbestos minerals such as chrysotile and tremolite, however, were not identified in the present study. Reddish brown to yellow clay materials were mainly composed of illite, occasionally associated with kaolin minerals and smectite. These clay minerals might be a product of the local hydrothermal alteration related to the dyke intrusion and subsequent weathering. As well indicated in the previous studies, mineral composition, texture, and occurrence of the dolostone beds suggest their formation through the diagenesis of carbonate sediments deposited in the shallow sea during the Precambrian to Paleozoic period.

패류화석은 지구를 이루는 퇴적암 중 석회암을 이루고 있는 주요 구성원 중의 하나이다. 지난 20년간 지질학자 및 해양학자들은 주로 심해에 쌓여 있는 퇴적물 중의 미화석(microfossil)을 이용하여 과거의 기후 및 해양의조건을 규명하기 위하여 많은 노력을 하여왔다. 그 결과로서 지질학적 시대 중 중생대 이후로부터 신생대에 이르기까지 지구 전반에 영향을 주었던 고기후에 대한 많은 정보가 얻어졌다. 또한 일부 학자들에 의하여 천해에 서식하였던 여러 화석들의 생태와 지화학적 분석(geochemical analysis)을 통하여 지엽적인 고기후(paleoclimate) 및 고해양학적(paleoceanographic)이해도 증진되어 온 것이 사실이다. 천해에 서식하고 있는 석회질 골격(calcareous skeleton)을 만드는 생물종들은 주로 생화확적인 작용을 통하여 아라고나이트와 방해석이라는 탄산염 광물을 침전시킨다. 특히 이 중에서 아라고나이트라는 광물은 불안정하여 속성작용 (퇴적물이 쌓인 후 거치는 물리, 화학적 작용)동안에 방해석으로 변하게 된다. 따라서 특이한 속성환경의 조건에 의해 아라고나이트로 보존되어 있는 패류를 제외하고는 주로 방해석으로 이루어진 화석의 분석을 통하여 고환경 복원을 위한 여러 정보를 얻을 수 있다. 이를 근거로 하여 분석 대상이 주로 된 것은 완족류나 방해석으로 이루어진 이매패류(e.g., 굴등)이었다.우리나라에서는 최근에 이르러서야 패류 화석의 지화학적 분석을 통하여 고해양학적 연구가 수행되기 시작하였다. 신생대 제 3기 마이오세에 해당하는 포항 부근에서 발견되는 연체동물 화석들은 변질이 안된 상태로서 우리에게 매우 귀중한 고해양학적 정보를 제공한다. 과거에 생물이 자랐던 성장 온도는 산소 동위원소의 비를 측정하여 구할 수 있는데 그결과에 의하면 해수의 온도가 현재보다 약간 높았음을 지시한다. 제주도 내의 서귀포 부근에서는 현재 천연기념물로 지정되어 있는 서귀포층내에서 많은 화석들이 산출되고 있다. 이 시대는 빙하기와 간빙기가 교호하던 시대로서, 분석 결과에 의하면 서귀포층이 쌓일 당시에 우리 나라는 빙하기의 영향을 받았던 것으로 생각된다.

In the coal-bearing formations of the Janggi Group, which are reported as typical clastic sediments, several beds of volcaniclastic rocks are actually found in the Yeongil area. The coal-bearing formations generally exhibit alternating lithologic characteristics of pyroclastic and epiclastic sedimentary facies. Tuff and tuffaceous sandstone rich in pumice fragments are characteristic in the coal-bearing fermations. Diagenetic minerals found in the pyroclastic rocks of the upper and lower coal-bearing formations are montmorillonite, clinoptilolite, opal-CT, and quartz. Several tuffaceous beds correspond to the low-grade ores of zeolites and bentonite, and moreover, these ores mostly occur as thin beds less than 1 m in thickness. Thus, the potential of altered tuffaceous rocks as the resources typical of zeolite and bentonite seems to be low. However, based on mineral composition and CEC determinations, it can be evaluated that these tuffaceous rocks mostly have the promising potential for utilization as the absorbent-functional mineral resources such as acid clays, if these low-grade ores plus adjacent tuffaceous rocks are collectively exploited.

Clinoptilolite and mordenite are important constituents of the Nuldaeri Trachytic Tuff and Guryongpo Dacitic Tuff of the Tertiary Janggi Group which were deposited in a lacustrine environment. The diagenetic cystallization sequences of zeolites in different tuffaceous sediments and their chemical behaviors have been studied to know the process of their formation. The paragenetic sequence established from textural observations and chemical data : Ca-smectite ${\leftrightarrow}$(Ca, K)-clinoptilolite${\leftrightarrow}$(K, Na)-mordenite, indicates that the chemical activities of alkalic ions and Si/Al activity ratio in pore fluids changed systematically with diagenetic alteration. The chemical trend of zeolite formation is characterized by decreasing Ca and Mg, non-variable Na and increasing K in the Nuldaeri Trachytic Tuff and by decreasing Ca and Mg, non-variable Na and increasing-decreasing K in the Guryongpo Dacitic Tuff. The paragenesis from glass via smectite to alkali zeolites indicates a sequence of incongruent dissolution reactions and subsequent crystallization. Inhomogeneity in chemical composition of each zeolite may be attributed to such processes.

This study was conducted to identify the conceptual definition and attributes of nurses' Tae-um based on the conceptual analysis method of Walker and Avant. The attributes of nurses' Tae-um were derived from the organizational culture, inexperienced new nurses that are victims, senior nurses that are perpetrators, alteration of teaching, verbal and physical violence experiences, and psychological and physical symptoms. The antecedents were due to excessive work, high work intensity, job stress, lack of workforce, poor working environment, lack of job ability of new nurses, organizational hierarchy, and power imbalance. Moreover, the consequences were physical and psychological symptoms, decreased efficiency, increased distrust, increased turnover intention, and decreased quality of patient care. Improvements of working conditions and social supports for expanding nursing staff and building a culture in which communication and mutual cooperation are used to solve the antecedents of Tae-um among nurses is necessary. This study suggests the need for more qualitative research on Tae-um in nurses, the development of tools that reflect the attributes of Tae-um in nurses, and the development of a program to improve the culture of Tae-um in nurses. This study is significant in that it provides a rationale for development of an adaptation program for new nurses by suggesting the antecedents of Tae-um and solutions for it.

Bentonite is a type of rock that has been used as a traditional mineral medicine. It has a variety of pharmacological activities, and is used in traditional Korean medicine to treat jaundice, diarrhea, and hemostasis. In modern medicine, it is used as a raw material and additive for medicines such as antacids, gastrointestinal protective agents, and laxatives. Bentonite produced in Korea was produced through diagenesis or hydrothermal alteration of tertiary volcanic debris distributed in the Pohang and Gyeongju areas. It is mainly used for industrial purposes such as papermaking, paint, civil engineering, casting, and animal feed. Recently, technology is being developed to use it in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. In this study, the geochemical characteristics of bentonite were identified by analyzing the main components and trace elements of 40 and 21 types of bentonite produced in the Gampo Gyeongju and Yeonil Pohang area. Also it were classifed by formation envrionment of bentonite deposits in the Gampo and Yeonil. As a result of the study, bentonite from the reserch area may be cased by argillic alteraton that alkali elements are removed form basaltic rocks by hydrothermal fluids and AI-CCPI alteration indices wrere also indentified argillic alteraton. It was found that there is a correlation between the behavior characteristics of heavy metal elements (P b, Cr, As) and the hydrothermal alteration of bentonite in the reserch area.

The seated stone Buddha(Bon5190) of National Museum of Korea initially consisted of some 90 fragments, making it difficult to guess its overall appearance. Under a restoration work which lasted four months, the fragments were joined together, giving shape to a seated Stone Buddha in Bhumisparsa(earth touching) mudra and an associated figure of Bodhisattva missing the face. The statue was made from a single stone block by digging out the center. Traces of lacquer coating and a gilded layer above the lacquer coat were found in various parts. Polarizing microscopy and XRD analysis revealed that the stone was zeolite, a mineral formed through diagenesis of volcanic glassy ashes from trachytic tuff (Nuldaeri) and dacitic tuff (Guryongpo). In Korea, zeolite deposit found mostly in Gyeongsangbuk-do, in places like Yeonil, Guryongpo, Gampo and Ulsan. The restored statue of seated Buddha proved very similar in appearance to the seated stone Buddha of Deoksa Temple in Cheongdo-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do (housed in Yeongsanjeon Hall). The scroll inside the statue, containing information about the background and circumstances of creation of this Buddhist sculpture, indicates that the monk Seung-ho took part in it as the head sculptor-monk.
