A total chemical analysis of the Isna, Egypt, meteorite is similar to analyses for chondrites of type C3, Ornans sub-type; however, comparison with one group of chemical data indicates that Isna is intermediate between the C3(O)'s and C3(V)'s in terms of total Fe. On the basis of atom ratios of Fe, Ca, Al, and Ti to Si, Isna can also be placed into a chemical group which includes types C1 and C2, as well as C3(O). Thin sections show a variety of small, closely-packed chondrules, fragments, and aggregate-like masses in a poorly translucent matrix. Olivine + clinoenstatite inclusions rich in metal and troilite, and olivine-rich inclusions are abundant and show evidence of shock. Ca-Al-Ti-rich inclusions, of probable high-temperature origin, contain olivine, spinel, Ca-rich nepheline, gehlenite, diopside, augite, enstatite, and anorthite. Kamacite and taenite from various occurrences in the meteorite have rather uniform Ni and Co contents, and Ni/Co for kamacite is close to that for several C3(O)'s. 相似文献

Gobabeb, an ordinary chondrite, was found near Gobabeb, South West Africa in 1969. Chemically and petrographically it belongs in the H4 group. But, in addition to almost homogeneous silicates and chromites, it contains rare, non-opaque spinels that vary greatly in composition from grain to grain. A similar association in an “almost equilibrated” portion of the Mezö-Madaras chondrite has been interpreted as evidence against the hypothesized metamorphic homogenization of ordinary chondrites. A comparison of the chromites and variable spinels from Mezö-Madaras and Gobabeb suggests, instead, that cation exchange is simply slower in the variable spinels than in the chromites. Based on the evidence to date, the survival of these highly variable spinels is not incompatible with a metamorphic episode for both these meteorites. 相似文献

Dredging and widening of the Panama Canal is currently being conducted to allow larger vessels to transit to and from the Americas, Asia, and Europe. Dredging efficiency relies heavily on knowledge of the types and volumes of sediments and rocks beneath the waterway to ensure the right equipment is used for their removal. To aid this process, a waterborne streaming electrical resistivity survey was conducted along the entire length of the canal to provide information on its geology. Within the confines of the canal, a total of 663 line-kilometers of electrical resistivity data were acquired using the dipole–dipole array. The support of the survey data for dredging activities was realized by calibrating and qualitatively correlating the resistivity data with information obtained from nearby logged boreholes and geological maps.The continuity of specific strata was determined in the resistivity sections by evaluating the continuity of similar ranges of resistivity values between boreholes. It was evident that differing geological units and successions can have similar ranges of resistivity values. For example, Quaternary sandy and gravelly alluvial fill from the former river channel of the Chagres River had similar resistivity ranges (generally from 40 to 250 Ω m) to those characteristic of late Miocene basalt dikes (from 100 to 400 Ω m), but for quite different reasons. Similarly, competent marine-based sedimentary rocks of the Caimito Formation were similar in resistivity values (ranging from 0.7 to 10 Ω m) to sandstone conglomerate of the Bohio Formation. Consequently, it would be difficult to use the resistivity data alone to extrapolate more complex geotechnical parameters, such as the hardness or strength of the substrate. A necessary component for such analyses requires detailed objective information regarding the specific context from which the geotechnical parameters were derived. If these data from cored boreholes and detailed geological surveys are taken into account, however, then waterborne streaming resistivity surveying can be a powerful tool. In this case, it provided inexpensive and highly resolved quantitative information on the potential volume of loose suctionable material along the Gamboa Sub-reach, which could enable large cost savings to be made on a major engineering project involving modification of one of the most important navigable waterways in the world. 相似文献

Abstract Detailed comparisons are made between the predictions of Benjamin's weakly nonlinear theory for internal solitary waves in fluids of great depth, with observational data on solitary wave-type disturbances in the lower atmosphere associated with the “morning glory” phenomenon. It is shown that, while the theory is not wholly unreasonable, neither is it completely satisfactory. In particular, although the calculated wave speeds are generally close to those observed, they are no improvement on those based on linear long wave theory; at the same time the predicted wave half-widths are too large by a factor of two to three. The limitations of the theory appear to be associated with the requirement that wave half-widths are much less than the total fluid depth, a condition not satisfied in the atmospheric case. However, the alternative theory for shallow fluids, based on the Korteweg-de Vries equation is found to be even more unsuitable. Our analyses highlight some of the problems in comparing theory with observations and bring to the fore some of the present limitations of the data for such purposes. 相似文献

The Weston meteorite is a breccia containing mostly light-colored equilibrated chondritic xenoliths and less abundant highly un-equilibrated chondritic inclusions fixed in a dark grey host of chondrules, mineral and rock fragments. Many of the inclusions show evidence of shock. Unlike most xenolithic chondrites, the Weston host contains a large fraction of considerably more equilibrated silicates than is found in the unequilibrated inclusions, suggesting either that most host silicates retain the mineral chemistry of an equilibrated source indigenous to Weston, or represent a unique fraction which equilibrated separately, prior to final agglomeration. The host silicates are similar in composition to minerals in the common xenoliths, supporting the former possibility that host chondrules and mineral fragments are derived from the xenolithic material, probably by impact fragmentation and melting. Also mixed with Weston is a small but distinct carbonaceous component including the minerals fassaite, Fespinel, forsterite, magnetite and Ca-Al-rich inclusion which are normally associated with carbonaceous chondrites. 相似文献

Glass particles have been separated from the Bununu howardite microbreccia and analyzed with the electron microprobe. Preliminary SEM studies of the glass reveal fragments, spherules, teardrops, and rods: particles reminiscent of glasses recovered from the lunar surface. When plotted, individual glass analyses from both the Bununu and Malvern howardites range through the howardite group and extend into the eucrite group with the average glass compositions slightly enriched in CaO and depleted in MgO when compared with the bulk chemical analyses. These glasses presumably represent quenched, impact-melted rocks, or partial melts of the major rock types and/or matrix in Bununu and Malvern. Shock-produced features which have been observed in known terrestrial and lunar impact breccias are also present in Bununu. Crystal deformation, maskeylenite and glass veining in clasts and glass spherules and shards in the matrix point to impact brecciation as the likely mechanism to form the features observed in Bununu and other howardites. 相似文献

Impact-generated silicate spherules from the Lonar Crater, India and from all Apollo sites are analogous to meteoritic chondrules (and some microtektites). Thus, the impact origin of chondrules, first proposed by Urey (1952) is a mechanism strongly supported by physical evidence from both the Moon and the Earth. Chondrites appear to be essentially impact breccias similar to lunar and Lonar microbreccias. The implications of this with regard to size and composition of the meteorite parent bodies are reviewed as well as the possible variations of element fractionation by volatilization-condensation.Paper dedicated to Professor Harold C. Urey on the occasion of his 80th birthday on 29 April 1973. 相似文献
