Geology of Ore Deposits is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes articles on metallic and nonmetallic mineral deposits, conditions of their formation, and spatial and temporal distribution. The journal publishes original scientific articles and reviews on a wide range of problems in theoretical and applied geology. The journal focuses on the following problems: deep geological structure and geodynamic environment of ore formation; distribution pattern of metallogenic zones and mineral deposits; geology and formation environment of large and unique metallic and nonmetallic deposits; mineralogy of metallic and nonmetallic deposits; physicochemical and isotopic characteristics and geochemical environment of ore deposition; evolution of ore-forming systems; radiogeology and radioecology, economic problems in exploring, developing, and mining of ore commodities. The journal welcomes manuscripts from all countries.
The Urals belongs to the western flank of the huge transcontinental Uralo-Mongolian fold belt and comprises at least three billion years of geological history. Today we can distinguish between five major structural levels and epochs of the Urals development (see Puchkov 2013). The earliest Archean and later Meso-Neoproterozoic complexes, although related to the development of the Baltic craton and its eastern periphery, far before the Uralides existed, are incorporated in the Uralian orogen structure and sometimes they display traces of young Paleozoic events of the fold belt. The Archean rocks are represented by granulites of the Taratash complex, showing similarities to the granulites in the basement of the East-European platform. The Meso-Neoproterozoic sedimentary and magmatic complexes witness the geotectonic development along the eastern margin of the Baltic Shield. This time was very productive regarding the formation of some important mineral deposits, such as siderite and magnesite within metasedimentary sequences (Prochaska and Krupenin 2012) and titano-magnetite ore associated with rift-related layered gabbro intrusions and others.
During the Silurian and Devonian subductions an enormous amount of island arc volcanic rocks all over the Urals were formed. This stage was highly productive regarding VMS deposits. It is only recently, that new evidences showed the formation of some Uralian VMS deposits through black smoker chimneys. Thus, the Urals became one of the first places in the world, where paleo-chimneys of Devonian age were described (see Maslennikov et al. 2012).
It is the intention that this special issue of Mineralogy and Petrology offers an actual overview on Uralian geology, new data on magmatic rock sequences and ore deposits since 2002. This issue is determined to attract the interest of geoscientists, researchers and students and everybody interested in orogenic belts of the Uralian type.
This report presents, in atlas format, the concentration and distribution of geochemical constituents in domestic water wells. These data were the result of the National Uranium Resource Evaluation (NURE) program. The elements in the database are pathfinder elements to seek uranium deposits. This report is a companion to Bulletin 93 which presents stream sediment concentrations for many elements.
This report presents in atlas format the concentration and distribution of geochemical constituents in stream sediments statewide. These data were the result of the National Uranium Resource Evaluation (NURE) program. The elements in the database are pathfinder elements to seek uranium deposits; subsequent analyses of these samples resulted in supplemental geochemical analyses. This report is a companion to Bulletin 94 which presents hydrochemical concentrations for many elements from domestic water supply wells.

The survey of the geology and ore deposits of the Darwin Hills presents two major problems. The first is the origin of the stratified silicate aureole about the Darwin stock. Such silication may be accomplished by pure thermal metamorphism or by additive processes. Field relations, supported by petrographic and chemical evidence, indicate that metasomatism played the dominant role. Considerable silica and other materials were introduced into the limestones by the magmatic emanations.The second major problem involves the origin and classification of the ore deposits. The deposition of all the ore bodies took place at a distinctly later time that the development of the silicate aureole. A period of tectonic fracturing in which most of the fissures of the district were developed intervened between the early silication period and the later metallization period. Three structural controls, igneous contacts, bedding planes, and fractures, dominated the location of the deposits. Genetically all three structural types are the same. The ore mineralization is not of the high temperature type and hence is not pyrometasomatic as classed by Knopf. Because of certain structural and textural features and the presence of such gangue minerals as fluorite and barite, the deposits are classed as upper mesothermal.
This special volume provides a comprehensive review of the current state of knowledge for rare earth and critical elements in ore deposits. The first six chapters are devoted to rare earth elements (REEs) because of the unprecedented interest in these elements during the past several years. The following eight chapters describe critical elements in a number of important ore deposit types. These chapters include a description of the deposit type, major deposits, critical element mineralogy and geochemistry, processes controlling ore-grade enrichment, and exploration guides. This volume represents an important contribution to our understanding of where, how, and why individual critical elements occur and should be of use to both geoscientists and public policy analysts.
Identifying potential sources for some of the elements deemed critical can be challenging. Because many of these elements have had minor historic usage, exploration for them has been limited. Thus, as this volume highlights, the understanding of the occurrence and genesis of critical elements in various ore deposit models is much less well defined than for base and precious metals. A better understanding of the geologic and geochemical processes that lead to ore-grade enrichment of critical elements will aid in determining supply risk and was a driving factor for preparation of this volume. Understanding the gaps in our knowledge of the geology and geochemistry of critical elements should help focus future research priorities.
Nickel (Ni) is a transition element that exhibits a mixture of ferrous and nonferrous metal properties. It is both siderophile (i.e., associates with iron) and chalcophile (i.e., associates with sulfur). The bulk of the nickel mined comes from two types of ore deposits:
The ionic radius of divalent nickel is close to that of divalent iron and magnesium, allowing the three elements to substitute for one another in the crystal lattices of some silicates and oxides. Nickel sulfide deposits are generally associated with iron- and magnesium-rich rocks called ultramafics and can be found in both volcanic and plutonic settings. Many of the sulfide deposits occur at great depth. Laterites are formed by the weathering of ultramafic rocks and are a near-surface phenomenon. Most of the nickel on Earth is believed to be concentrated in the planet's core. 2ff7e9595c
