The Mineralogical Characteristics Of The Hydrothermal Types Alteration From Nistru Ore Deposit, Baia Mare Metallogenetic District, Floarea Damian
The Mineralogical Characteristics Of The Hydrothermal Types Alteration From Nistru Ore Deposit, Baia Mare Metallogenetic District, Floarea Damian
Studia UBB Geologia
The hydrothermal alteration types, which have affected intrusive and volcanic rocks from Nistru ore deposit, are related to fluids composition varied in their evolution within hydrothermal systems. The early stage of the hydrothermal activity has produced extensive propylitisation and potassic alteration (orthoclase, biotite, sericite) associated with the central part of the quartz-micromonzodioritic porphyry stock. The late stage of the fluids differentiation is determined by the hydrogen-ion metasomatism (phyllic alteration, argillic alteration), characterized by a large vertical variation. The hydrogen-ion metasomatism is associated with the bor metasomatism, generated by acid solutions and at a high temperature. The vertical and lateral zoning …
The Genesis Of The Base Metal Ore Deposit From Herja, Gheorghe Damian
The Genesis Of The Base Metal Ore Deposit From Herja, Gheorghe Damian
Studia UBB Geologia
The Herja ore deposit is one of the most known of the Baia Mare Neogene metallogenetic district and is associated with a complex stock of Pannonian age. The hydrothermal alterations associated with the mineralizations are represented by: the propylitization, the argillization, the phyllic and potassic alteration. The monoascenedant character of the mineralizations is predominant. The magmatic intrusions have been sequential placed and have represented the heat, metals and hydrothermal solutions source. In the first stages of mineralization the hydrothermal solutions contain predominantly magmatic water and in the final stages the water is of connate and meteoric origin. According to the …

Hydrothermal Breccia Pipe Structures: General Features And Genetic Criteria - Ii Phreatic Breccia, CăLin G. TăMaș, Jean-P. Milési
Studia UBB Geologia
Phreatic and phreatomagmatic breccias are the two end-member styles of hydromagmatic breccias. A previous contribution deals with phreatomagmatic breccias with an emphasis on their general features and those genetic criteria that allow an accurate and rapid recognition. Phreatic breccias are presented here. Their general features, i.e. environment/ depth of formation, general form/geometry, dimensions, contacts with the host rocks, fragments, matrix, alteration, mineralization, surface connection, fluidization and facies changes were examined. Furthermore, genetic criteria, very useful in phreatic breccia recognition are summarized.

Studia UBB Geologia
Recent investigation on several secondary minerals formed in old mining galleries in the Cârnic district (Roşia Montană, Romania) enabled us to characterize ten minerals. Out of these ten identified minerals, the discovery of jokokuite is the first reported occurrence in the Carpathians. A second mineral identified as apjohnite represents a new occurrence in Romania. Along with these two rare minerals, some other species of the halotrichite group (pickeringite, halotrichite, apjohnite, and dietrichite), iron sulfates, and K-Al sulfates were identified. Minerals were identified using light microscopy, X-ray diffraction, infrared, and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy. The chemical composition of …

Petrology Of Badenian Ignimbrites, Gutai Mts. (Eastern Carpathians), Alexandrina FüLöP, Marinel Kovacs
Studia UBB Geologia
Gutâi Mts., part of inner Carpathians volcanic arc, consist of products of felsic and intermediate volcanism. The previously known “Badenian Rhyodacitic Formation”, expression of the felsic explosive volcanism, is composed of a well-defined basal unit of ignimbrites, overlain by a sequence of resedimented volcaniclastics of similar origin, interlayered with mudstones. The petrography of ignimbrites shows matrix-supported lapilli tuffs having a heterogeneous composition with insignificant lateral variations. The juvenile components, pumice, glass shards and crystals of plagioclase, quartz and biotite are predominant; cognate nonvesicular glassy clasts are rare, unlike accidental clasts of sedimentary and metamorphic rocks which are abundant. Pyroxene andesite …

The First Late Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) Dinosaur Footprints From Transylvania (Romania), Matei Vremir, Vlad A. Codrea
Studia UBB Geologia
An Uppermost Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) site exposing dinosaur footprints is reported from the Sebes̡ area (Transylvanian Depression). This is the first dinoturbated layer discovered in our country, containing also numerous bones belonging to various dinosaurs. The track-site is located near Lancrăm village and provides only two quite well preserved footprints (one track). The medium sized (FL = 23,3 cm; FW = 17,8 cm; pace = 103 cm; ST = 200 cm) plantigrad-tridactyle footprints belong to Ornithopedoidei, according to their morphology. An assignment to the Iguanodontichnus CASAMIQUELA & FASOLA, 1968 group seems to be appropriate (tentatively, associated to the “Rhabdodon” iguanodontian dinosaur). …

New Remarks On The Lithology And Biostratigraphy Of The Cretaceous Deposits From Istria Depression (Black Sea Shelf), Larisa Tertiș, Ioan I. Bucur, Emanoil SăSăRan, Lucreția Ghergari
Studia UBB Geologia
The lithological and micropaleontological study of samples collected from several boreholes drilled in the Mesozoic deposits of Istria Depression (Black See shelf) allowed the characterization of intersected Cretaceous successions. Berriasian - Valanginian deposits are terrigenous, represented mainly by sandstones in the lower parts, and clays above. It is impossible to document the presence of Hauterivian-Aptian deposits in the succession. The Albian deposits are still terrigenous (predominantly clays, sometimes with sponge spicules). The Cenomanian transgressive deposits are coarser, and contain Conicorbitolina conica (d’Archiac), Rotalipora cushmani (Morrow) and Hedbergella-Praeglobotruncana sp. The following Turonian?-Campanian-Maastrictian deposits are micritic limestones with planctonic foraminifera in specific …

A Revision Of The Rona Member, Vlad A. Codrea, Emanoil SăSăRan
Studia UBB Geologia
Lacustrine deposits occurring in the Jibou Formation (Late Maastrichtian – Lutetian) were mentioned in the Rona village area since the first half of the 19th century. Hungarian and Romanian geologists also carried out several researches in the last century, referring to the so-call “Rona Limestone” or “Rona Member”. In the last years, new outcrops resulted as a consequence of works made for the Botanical Garden at Jibou, adding details concerning mainly the base of the lacustrine succession. The new geological section from Jibou Botanical Garden should complete the old stratotype of the "Rona Limestone”, as a hypostratotype.

The Muncel Series (Ionescu, 1962), from the Bihor massif can be included in the Permian Pă ius̡eni Lithogroup, because it consists predominantly from weak metamorphosed granites and porphyres. In this idea, the Highis̡ Nappe correlates with the Muncel Nappe and does not with the Poiana Nappe. Consequently, the down to up succession of the Biharia Nappe System becomes: the Gârda Nappe; The Ravices̡ti scale; the Poiana Nappe; the Piatra Grăitoare scale; the Biharia nappe; the Highis̡-Muncel Nappe; the Baia de Aries̡ Nappe.

The Arieseni Nappe, Or The Moma And Poiana Nappes?, I. Balintoni, L. Ghergari, T. BăBuț
Studia UBB Geologia
The Arieseni Nappe was the single tectonic unit of the Biharia Nappe System involving unmetamorphosed, red Permian and metamorphosed, green Permian deposits. Deformational, microscopic and x-Ray diffraction studies, suggest a tectonic relationship between the two sequences. Consequently, the red Permian deposits have been attributed to the Moma Nappe, and the green Permian rocks to the Poiana Nappe. Thus, the Arieseni Nappe disappeared. The thrust between the red Permian and the green Permian deposits realized later during the emplacement of Apusenides, due to an east-verging movement.
Salt Works And Their Impact On Soil And Groundwater. The Cases Of Anghelohori And Kitros, Greece, Christodoulos Angelopoulos, Evangelos Nicolaou
Salt Works And Their Impact On Soil And Groundwater. The Cases Of Anghelohori And Kitros, Greece, Christodoulos Angelopoulos, Evangelos Nicolaou
Studia UBB Geologia
Contamination of soil and groundwater caused to salt works occurs due to infiltration of a part of seawater from the lakes of salt works through the soil and into phreatic aquifers and from there percolating to artesian aquifers. In the same time, while salt remaining in place is washed out by rain, contaminating soil and both phreatic and artesian aquifers. In the areas of Angelohori and Kitros this contamination of soil has been detected through chemical analysis while groundwater contamination has been suggested through pressure level contours.

A Comparative Study Between Loss On Ignition And Total Carbon Analysis On Mineralogenic Sediments, Daniel Ș. Vereș
A Comparative Study Between Loss On Ignition And Total Carbon Analysis On Mineralogenic Sediments, Daniel Ș. Vereș
Studia UBB Geologia
The present study deals with a comparison between organic and carbonate content determinations based on loss-on-ignition and step-wise total carbon analysis, and a correlation to grain-size. Although loss-on-ignition can generally be regarded as an accurate measure of the organic mater content of a sediment, the amount of fine fraction in the sediments is a limiting factor for an absolute organic determination and influences directly the correction factor. The same holds true for carbonate content determinations based on loss on ignition. In order to provide accurate organic and carbonate content determinations for a sediment, loss-on-ignition data must be corroborated by standard …

Gold In Metamorphic Rocks: Facts And Fancy, Gheorghe Udubașa, Sorin Silviu Udubașa
Studia UBB Geologia
The characterization of shear zone related ores (SZRO) is still a matter of debate. In an attempt to attenuate the existing controversial points of view some classifications of the SZRO are here proposed, taking into account both their mineralogy and geochemistry (protore nature, ore minerals assemblages etc.) and their size. The small scale SZRO seem to depend on the existence of a protore, as a source of metals, whereas the large scale SZRO may have an epigenetic overprint and the source of metals can be multiple, juvenile included. Finally, a fractal-like classification of ore deposits is proposed, in which the …

Hydrovolcanic Breccia Pipe Structures-General Features And Genetic Criteria. I. Phreatomagmatic Breccias, CăLin G. TăMaș, Jean P. Milési
Studia UBB Geologia
Two types of hydrovolcanic breccias are generally accepted: phreatomagmatic and phreatic. Due to their specific characteristics generated during the brecciation, characteristics that control the ore deposition, these breccias represent favourable hosts for mineralization. The depth of formation, the general form and dimensions, the breccia - host rock contact, as well as fragments, matrix, and open spaces altogether control the position and the size of the breccia hosted ore bodies and contribute in different degrees to the rise of the ore grades in phreatomagmatic and phreatic structures. Consequently, the recognition of the genetic type of breccia allows an appropriate strategy in …
