Petrochemical Characterization of Dolerites and Their Influence on Coal in the Witbank Highveld Coalfield, South Arica
2008
Masters study of dyke and sill intrusions at collieries in the Witbank and Highveld coalfields, using thin section petrography and X-ray fluorescence, for exploration geologists.
What this report foundDolerites in the study area differ in mineral content, geometry, thickness, grain size and degree of alteration.
R1500,00
Dolerites in the study area differ in mineral content, geometry, thickness, grain size and degree of alteration. Plagioclase textures indicate fractionation at different depths in the crust for the Witbank and Sasolburg intrusions, and the olivine content points to separate magma sources for two of the sills. Fine crystalline dolerite, including chilled margins and bifurcations, alters most readily.
Coal Washability Using Coal Petrography
2019
Summary of postgraduate work validating washability prediction for southern African coals by image analysis and tomography, written for geologists, metallurgists and mining engineers valuing a deposit.
What this report foundA single float sink test destroys the sample and gives one deterministic answer, so it cannot show how washability changes with particle size distribution.
R1500,00
A single float sink test destroys the sample and gives one deterministic answer, so it cannot show how washability changes with particle size distribution. Simulating washability from petrographic images and tomography allows many size distributions to be tested statistically from one sample. Running simulation alongside float sink work during exploration lets the prediction error of each be compared.
