Lacustrine shale oil resources are abundant and play important roles in maintaining a
sustainable economy. The uncertainty in the movable oil content of organic-rich shales with …

Ion-adsorption rare earth elements (iREE) deposits are the globally predominant source of
heavy rare earth elements (HREE), which are mainly discovered and mined in southern …

This study aims to determine the interdependence of deposition, tectonics and diagenesis in
a prolific hydrocarbon reservoir. This has been achieved through an integrated field study …

Abstract The Butano Sandstone forms part of an Eocene submarine fan deposited in the La
Honda basin in central California. The Butano submarine fan has been subdivided into three …

The dissolution kinetics of silica-containing minerals in aggregates influences strongly the
process of ASR in concrete. In this paper, the effect of different ions on the dissolution rates …

Northeastern Egypt is one of the most important exposures in the Middle East and North
Africa to study Jurassic facies. The present study analyzes 130 thin sections from a …

Experiments, simulations and derived theories for the hydration of tricalcium aluminate in
Portland cement-related systems are summarized and further conclusions are drawn. Highly …

This paper reports an experimental study on the thermal stability and mechanical
performance of geopolymers developed entirely with construction and demolition waste …

Improving geothermal systems through hydraulic stimulation to create highly permeable
fractured rocks can induce seismicity. Therefore, the technique must be applied at a …

Pore systems become very complex in heterogeneous reservoirs such as low-permeability
and tight sandstones for macropores and micropores both exist in such reservoirs. Although …
