Geothermal Energy Systems The book encounters basic knowledge about geothermal
technology for the utilization of geothermal resources. The book helps to understand the …

The tectonic evolution of the Mt Amiata volcano-geothermal area is under discussion. Some
authors state that this region, as well as the hinterland of the Northern Apennines, were …

Italy has no record of Li production, even though it is well known for its outstanding Li
mineral specimens from the Elba Island pegmatites. Because of the current geopolitical …

The transition to a low-carbon economy will increase demand for a wide range of metals,
notably copper, which is used extensively in power generation and in electric vehicles …

The early Paleozoic orogen in South China Block is an intracontinental orogen, and
synchronous magmatism (440–390 Ma) is mainly acidic with minor intermediate-mafic …

The magnesite deposits of Malentrata (Tuscany, Italy) were derived from serpentinite
silicification–carbonation of the Ligurian ophiolite, and represent a natural analogue of in …

One of the major geophysical discoveries concerning the Tibetan Plateau is the existence of
unusually weak layers in the mid-to lower crust, a characteristic widely interpreted as the …

We have examined the data of 600 geothermal wells and re‐interpreted approximately 500
km seismic profiles through the field of Larderello, Italy. We conclude that the two main …

Comparison between fossil and analogue active geothermal systems permit to obtain key-
parameters to define a conceptual model of the area under exploration. The approach is …

In geothermal areas the evaluation of the active stress field from local earthquakes is
generally contradictory, mainly suggesting normal to strike-slip tectonic regime. This feature …
