The Cretaceous Limestones of Jamaica and their MolluscaGeological Magazine - Tập 61 Số 9 - Trang 385-410 - 1924
C. T. Trechmann
Most of the exposures of Cretaceous Limestone in Jamaica were faithfully
indicated on the Geological Survey map of Sawkins and Brown in 1865. They are
limited in extent and occur at certain places among the complex of the older or
Blue Mountain series of rocks that project from beneath the covering of White
Limestone that covers the greater part of the Island. Contrary to one's common
experience i... hiện toàn bộ
The Barrettia Beds of JamaicaGeological Magazine - Tập 59 Số 11 - Trang 501-514 - 1922
C. T. Trechmann
Barrettia, the most abnormal of the Rudistæ, and among the strangest of all the
mollusca, was first found in Jamaica by Lucas Barrett, F.G.S., in the year 1861.
The specimens were ably described by S. P. Woodward, F.G.S., in 1862. The
original specimens, now in the British Museum of Natural History, consist of
polished transverse and longitudinal sections of the upper part of the shell,
the latter... hiện toàn bộ

J. W. Greǵory
Since the famous expedition of the late F. L. and W. James, of E. Lort -
Phillips and G. P. V. Aylmer, in 1884–5, opened the Somali plateau to European
exploration, the country has been repeatedly traversed. A valuable series of
geographical memoirs, hunting journals, and bluebooks has described the main
features in the topography of the country, and given many suggestions as to its

Fluid supersaturation and crystallization in porous mediaGeological Magazine - Tập 132 Số 1 - Trang 1-13 - 1995
Andrew Putnis, Manuel Prieto Rubio, Lurdes Fernández-Dı́az
AbstractThe relationship between the supersaturation at the point of
crystallization and the rate at which supersaturation increases has been studied
from nucleation experiments on barite BaSO4, strontianite SrCO3, witherite BaCO3
and gypsum CaSO4.2H2O. The crystallization experiments have been carried out by
the counter-diifusion of cations and anions through a column of porous silica

A basement culmination in the Scandinavian Caledonides formed by antiformal stacking (Bångonåive, northern Sweden)Geological Magazine - Tập 130 Số 4 - Trang 471-482 - 1993
Reinhard O. Greiling, R. A. Gayer, Michael B. Stephens
AbstractThe Bångonåive basement culmination, a doubly plunging antiform trending
SW-NE in its southern part and SSW-NNE in the north, is part of a major
Caledonian antiform in north-central Scandinavia. Crystalline, Proterozoic
basement rocks (mainly syenite) are unconformably overlain by a sedimentary
cover including tillites at the base, passing up into arkoses, quartzites and
shales, capped by ... hiện toàn bộ
Classification of fault breccias and related fault rocksGeological Magazine - Tập 145 Số 3 - Trang 435-440 - 2008
Nigel Woodcock, Kate Mort
AbstractDespite extensive research on fault rocks, and on their commercial
importance, there is no non-genetic classification of fault breccias that can
easily be applied in the field. The present criterion for recognizing fault
breccia as having no ‘primary cohesion’ is often difficult to assess. Instead we
propose that fault breccia should be defined, as with sedimentary breccia,
primarily by gr... hiện toàn bộ
Some Underwater Disturbances in the Torridonian of Skye and RaasayGeological Magazine - Tập 100 Số 3 - Trang 224-243 - 1963
Richard C. Selley, D. J. Shearman, John Sutton, Janet Watson
AbstractThe paper deals with disturbances of bedding contemporaneous with
deposition in Torridonian rocks of Skye and Raasay. Most of the structures
described have the general form of sharp upwardly-directed peaks separated by
areas of more or less undisturbed bedding; within the peaks the bedding is often
contorted or destroyed. The structures are developed in sandstones and are
thought to have b... hiện toàn bộ
On Certain Slump Structures in the Torridonian Sandstones of ApplecrossGeological Magazine - Tập 100 Số 3 - Trang 205-218 - 1963
A. D. Stewart
AbstractTwo types of slumps are described; small sag and drop-shaped structures
in the fine sandstones which develop out of iron-ore rich laminae, and the much
larger slump folds in the coarse sandstones which have wavelengths of 25 to 200
cm. and are characterized by open “synclines” linked by pointed “anticlines”.
Complex structures are common. It is suggested that liquifaction of the lower
part... hiện toàn bộ
Geology, geochronology and chemical evolution of the island of PantelleriaGeological Magazine - Tập 121 Số 6 - Trang 541-562 - 1984
L. Civetta, Y. Cornette, Gino Mirocle Crisci, A. Hildenbrand, G. Orsi, C. S. Requejo
AbstractPotassium–argon dating, field relations, geochemical and
strontium-isotope compositions are reported for the island of Pantelleria
(Strait of Sicily, Italy). These data support the following model for the
genesis and evolution through time of the volcanic system: the peralkaline rocks
originated from mantle-derived parental magmas; the trachytic magma
differentiated in a low pressure magma... hiện toàn bộ
