  • Origin, behavior and enrichment of environmental toxic elements from the Deokpyeong area were investigated on the basis of major, trace and rare earth element geochemistry. Coaly metapelites of the Deokpyeong area are subdivided into grey phyllite, dark grey phyllite, coaly slate and black slate, which are interbedded along the Ogcheon Supergroup. The coaly slate had been mined for coal, but mining is closed. The coaly and black slates are lower contents of $SiO_2$ and $Al_2O_3$, and higher contents of LOI, CaO, $Na_2O$ and BaO as compared with the phyllitic rocks. Rare earth elements are highly enriched in the coaly and black slate. Average compositions (ppm) of minor and/or environmental toxic elements in the coaly and black slate are revealed as As=127, Ba=30,163, Cd=18, Cr=740, Cu=84, Mo=378, Pb=43, Sb=12, Se=44, U=144, V=8,147 and Zn=292, which are extremely high concentrations than those in the NASC compositions. Major elements (average enrichment index; 5.34) in the coaly metapelites are mostly depleted, excepting $P_2O_5$ and BaO, normalized by NASC. Rare earth elements (average enrichment index; 1.48) are enriched in the coaly slate. On the basis of NASC, minor and/or environmental toxic elements in the coaly metapelites were strongly enriched of all the elements with the exception of Co, Cs, Ni and Sr. Average enrichment index of trace elements in coaly metapelite is 31.51 (coaly slate; 51.94 and black slate; 15.46). Especially, enrichment index of potentially toxic elements (As, Ba, Cr, Cu, Mo, Ni, Sb, Se, U, V and Zn) of the rock is 46.10 (grey phyllite; 7.15, dark grey phyllite; 4.77, coaly slate; 88.96 and black slate; 22.11). These coal formations were deposited in basin of boundary between terrestrial and marine environments deduced to carbon, sulfur (C/S=2.2 to 275.7), trace and rare earth elements characteristics. Irregular behavior and dispersion between major, minor and rare earth elements of those metapelites indicates a variable source materials, incomplete mixing of differential source and/or reequilibrium of diagenesis and metamorphism.

  • The sediment geochemistry, including REE of surface and core samples in the western part off Jeju Island have been carried out in order to understand the provenance and hydrolic sorting. The sediment in the study area were primarily composed of coarse silt with a mean grain size of $2.8{\sim}82.8{\mu}m$. The ratios of TOC over total nitrogen (TN) showed that the study area sediments contained more organic matters of marine origin than those of terrigenous origin. The total A1203, Fe203, K20, MgO, and MnO contents and REE concentration of the fine sediments are higher than those of the coarse sediments. The higher Zr/Th and Zr/Yb ratios in coarse sediments relative to fine-grained detritus indicates sedimentary sorting. Grain size influence the REE concentrations of the study area sediment significantly. The < $63{\mu}m$ fraction of the sediment has higher REE concentration and different REE patterns when compared with those in bulk samples, due to the presence of REE-enrich heavy minerals. The REE distribution patterns of the western part of Jeju Island sediments are relatively enriched in most LREEs than the Yellow River sediment and depleted in the Changjiang River, but the LaN/YbN ratios are similar to the Changjiang sediment. The Eu/Eu* ratios ranged from 0.594~0.665(0.631) is much similar to the Yellow River sediment, possibly mixture of the sediments from these two rivers.

  • Pan African granitoids of Kaiama is comprised of K-feldspar rich granites, porphyritic granites, and granitic gneiss that are intruded by quartz veins and aplitic veins and dykes which trend NE-SW. In order to establish the geochemical signatures, petrogenesis, and tectonic settings of the lithological units, petrological, petrographical, and geochemical studies was carried out. Petrographic analysis reveals that the granitoids are dominantly composed of quartz, plagioclase feldspar, biotite, and k-feldspar with occasional muscovites, sericite, and opaque minerals that constitute very low proportion. Major, trace, and rare earth elements geochemical data reveal that the rocks have moderate to high silica (SiO2=63-79.7%) and alumina (Al2O3=11.85-16.15) contents that correlate with the abundance of quartz, feldspars, and biotite. The rocks are calc-alkaline, peraluminous (ASI=1.0-<1.2), and S-type granitoids sourced by melting of pre-existing metasedimentary or sedimentary rocks containing Al, Na, and K oxides. They plot dominantly in the WPG and VAG fields suggesting emplacement in a post-collisional tectonic setting. On a multi-element variation diagram, the granitoids show depletion in Ba, K, P, Rb, and Ti while enrichment was observed for Th, U, Nd, Pb and Sm. Their rare-earth elements pattern is characterized by moderate fractionation ((La/Yb)N=0.52-38.24) and pronounced negative Eu-anomaly (Eu/Eu*=0.02-1.22) that points to the preservation of plagioclase from the source magma. Generally, the geochemical features of the granitoids show that they were derived by the partial melting of crustal rocks with some input from greywacke and pelitic materials in a typical post-collisional tectonic setting.

  • The host rocks of titaniferous magnetite deposits in Gonamsan are alkaline gabbros, which are typical of undersaturated alkaline rocks in terms of the lack of normative quartz. According to field occurrences and petrographic features, these alkaline gabbros are divided into 3 rock types: coarse-grained and pegmatitic rock, medium-grained rock with equigranular texture, and layered cumulate rock. All these rocks mainly contain clinopyroxene(salite), plagioclase(An 43-66), pargasite, and ilmenite. The accessory minerals are apatite, sphene, quartz, and sometimes titaniferous magnetite. Pargasite, sphene, and quartz are considered to be secondary minerals formed by the reaction among clinopyroxene, plagioclase and Fe-Ti oxide at deuteric stage. Fe-Ti oxides generally occur as ilmenite in the alkaline rocks, and titaniferous magnetite in the ore deposits. Layered cumulate rocks are characterized by a recurrence of discontinuous thin mesolayer of clinopyroxene-pargasite within leucolayer mainly composed of plagioclase. Clinopyroxene is cumulus mineral whereas plagioclase, ilmenite and apatite occur as intercumulus minerals. According to the variation diagrams of oxide and trace element contents against the differentiation index, incompatible elements, such as Na, Ba and Sr, show positive correlations whereas compatible elements, such as Mg and Cr, show negative correlations. However some compatible elements, such as Co, Ni and V show irregular variations, reflecting relative cumulate status of cumulus and intercumulus minerals. On the de la Roche multicationic diagram, these alkaline gabbros are distributed along the differentiation curve of undersaturated alkaline series from alkaline basaltic composition through basanitic composition to tephritic composition. Layered cumulate rocks, which are distributed between basanitic composition and tephritic composition, reflect their cumulate character, slightly scattering away from the curve. The medium-grained rock shows higher contents in Ba, Sr and light rare earch elements than the coarse-grained and pegmatitic rock. The former shows two times higher contents of total rare earth elements than the latter, $while(La/Lu)_{cn}$ ratios maintain fairly constant values of 5.08~5.06 in these two rocks. This means that coarse-grained and pegmatitic rock, as compared with the medium-grained rock, was formed by the earlier differentiated magma but rare-earth element distribution pattern remained almost parallel during differentiation. From the data the above mentioned, these alkaline gabbros are considered to be comagmatic and to be formed by intrusions of differentiated magmas in its reservoir.

  • 중국 황토고원 표층 시료에 대한 원소분포를 조사하였다. 10개 지역의 시료에 대한 주성분의 함량변화는 거의 없으나 3번 시료는 타지역에서 채취한 시료에 비해 Si 및 Fe, P, Na, Ti 의 함량이 낮고 Ca, Mg, LOI의 함량이 높으며 미량원소도 Ba, Cr, Nb, Pb, Rb, Zr, V의 함량이 낮게 나타났다. 대륙지각 상부 원소함량 UCC(Upper Continental Crust)과 비교한 결과 대부분의 원소들이 $0.5-1.5{\times}UCC$ 범위 이내였으나 Ca은 함량이 높게 나타났다. 희토류원소 분석결과 콘드라이트 표준화 시킨 희토류원소의 분포는 모든시료에서 경희토류가 중희토류에 비해 부화되었고 Eu은 부(-)의 이상을 나타내어 황토고원의 표층시료는 유사한 지역으로부터 유입되었고 풍화작용에 크게 영향을 받지 않았음을 알 수 있었다.

  • 산화물 사용후핵연료에 대한 전해환원의 금속전환체를 양극으로 한 전해정련공정에는 LiCl-KCl 공융염에 우라늄 원소뿐 아니라 초우란 원소 및 희토류 원소들이 용해되므로 우라늄을 선택적으로 회수하기 위해서는 우라늄과 다른 원소들이 음극에 전착되는 거동에 대한 연구가 필요하다. LiCl-KCl 공융염 내 희토류 원소의 농도에 따른 음극에서의 전착거동을 고찰하기 위해 U 및 Ce를 기준으로 한 U, Ce, Y 그리고 Nd 원소들의 분리계수에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. Ce 금속을 희생 양극으로 이용하여 정전류 정련반응을 통해 용융염 상과 전착물 상의 U, Ce, Y 그리고 Nd 원소의 농도를 분석하여 이로부터 분리계수를 얻었으며 $UCl_3$ 농도와 $CeCl_3/UCl_3$ 농도비에 따른 분리계수로부터 우라늄을 선택적으로 회수할 수 있는 조건들을 고찰하였다.

  • Geochermical characteristics of the fluvial sediments deprnding on particle size distribution size were investigated in the respect of majir, minor and rare eath element chemisitry. Ratios of $Al_{2}O_{3}/Na_{2}O$ and $K_{2}O/Na_{2}O$ of the sediments show the homogeneous valus, and partly positive correlation with $SiO_{2}/Al_{2}O_{3}$, respecively. Characteristics of minor element ratios (V/Ni, Cr/V, Ni/Co and Zr/Hf)are within the lower and narrow range. Thesesuggested that sediment sources may be acidic to intermediate granitic rock, and may be explained by simple weathering and sedimentation. With increasing SiO2 contents, concentrations of $Al_{2}O_{3}$, $Fe_{2}O_{3}$, CaO and MgO decreased, but those of $K_{2}O$ and $Na_{2}O$ increased, Concentrations of Ba, Be, Cs, Cu, Li, Ni, Sr, V and Zr show comparatively normal negative and some positive trends. Compared with the mean composition of granite, concentrations of $Al_{2}O_{3}$, $Fe_{2}O_{3}$, MnO, CaO and MgO in the sediments of the study area were highly enriced. Among some minor and rare earth elements, concentrations of As, Cd, Cu, and V were enriched, but those of Be, Ce, Rb, Sc, Sr and Zn were depleted when compared with average composition of granite. By decreasing of particle size fractions, SiO2, Rb and Sr conterts decreased, but concentrations of $Al_{2}O_{3}$, $Fe_{2}O_{3}$, CaO, MgO, $TiO_{2}$, MgO, $P_{2}O_{5}$, Be, Cu, Hf, Pb, V and Zr increased. From the correlations between particle size fractions and element concenreations, some elements of $Fe_{2}O_{3}$, CaO, MgO, $P_{2}O_{5}$, Cu, Ni, Zn and Zr showed typical trends in the secondary contramination sediments. These trends are typically shown under 100 mesh fractions. It indicates that the fraction of minus 100 mesh is the optimum size fraction for geochemical and environmental survey.

  • 대구 월성동 출토 구석기 흑요석 석기는 광물, 암석 및 지구화학적 분석결과 마그마에서 급랭하여 생성된 균질한 유리질을 가지는 전형적인 흑요석에 속한다. 연구대상 흑요석의 주 구성성분은 규장질 유문암으로서 Calk-alkaline계열에 속한다. 기존의 국내 출토지, 백두산, 일본 큐슈지방에서 출토된 흑요석과 연구 대상 지역의 흑요석에 대한 분석 결과를 비교했을 때 미량원소와 희토류 원소의 함량의 차이는 있으나 대부분 서로 유사한 원소분포 패턴을 보였다. Sr 동위원소 분석 결과 소사 대상지역의 흑요석이 우리나라 남부지방이나 백두산 기원의 흑요석과는 상당히 많은 차이를 나타낸다. E-Ar 연대 측정 결과 약 30Ma로써 백두산 화산환동 시기인 10Ma보다 오래된 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 조사지역의 흑요석을 포함하여 한반도에서 발견되는 흑요석을 광물, 안석, 미량원소, 동위원소 및 연대 측정 등을 종합적해 볼 때 백두산지역, 일본큐슈와 한반도 남부지역, 한반도 중부지역 및 조사지역인 월성동 흑요석으로 4대분 할 수 있으며 이는 한반도에서 출토되는 흑요석의 기원지의 다양성을 시사하고 있다.

  • The effects of thickness, base element and additive to inoculant on the number of eutectic cells and chill depth of thin-section gray cast iron were investigated. Meanwhile the number of eutectic cells increased by inoculation, chill depth decreased. The former decreased and the latter increased by holding the melt at the temperature range between 1,450 and $1,500^{\circ}C$. The former was more for the thinner casting with the thickness of 5 mm than the other. The result of thermal analysis coincided well with the change of macrostructure. The former increased and the latter decreased with the increased contents of carbon, silicon and the silicon content by inoculation. The former decreased and the latter increased with increased manganese content. The number of eutectic cells decreased as the amounts of rare earth and the bismuth added to this inoculant increased. With the addition of sulfur of 0.10 wt% of the weight of this inoculant, the maximum number of eutectic cells was obtained.

  • 본 연구는 사비백제시기 사찰지에서 출토된 치미를 대상으로 화학적, 광물학적 특성에 대하여 분석하였다. 화학적 특성에서 군수리사지 출토 치미 1점을 제외한 대부분의 치미는 유사한 희토류 원소 분포패턴을 보이기 때문에 동일한 기반암에서 생성된 점토를 사용하였음이 확인된다. 하지만 주성분 및 미량원소 조성양상이 달라 동일 기반암이라 할지라도 차별화된 풍화과정을 겪었거나 제작과정에서 차이가 있었을 것으로 추정된다. 광물학적 특성은 3개의 유형으로 구분되며 Fe2O3-TiO2의 도식에서 Fe2O3이 5 wt% 이상 검출되는 시료가 상대적으로 높은 소성온도로 제작되었을 것으로 추정되는 그룹과 동일한 양상이 확인된다. 따라서 출토지에 따른 동질성은 낮으나 시료 간의 군집 경향이 확인되어 사용처에 따른 제작이 이루어졌다고 보다는 사용시점에 따른 제작이 진행되었을 가능성이 높다.
