El-Batts Demo Area constitutes a part of El-Fayoum province in Egypt, it is dominated by clay formations 17 meters thickness, covered in part by a thin layer of Pleistocene deposits. XRD studies reveal that smectite is ...

This study aims to document the Neocomian to Aptian palynological assemblages recorded in the Mersa Matruh borehole, north West Desert, Egypt. These palynological assemblages, consisting mainly of dinocysts, miospores and ...

An analysis of the seismic risk is carried out for the Red Sea region for the recorded earthquakes in the area between 1. January 1913 and 31 December 1982. The maximum likelihood method was applied to determine the hazard ...

Metabasalts and meta-andesites together with small amounts of metadacite constitute the Magal Gebriel volanic suite. Restricted amounts of unmetamorphosed rhyolitic rocks are also present. The metavolcanics show a wide ...

The Recent sediments from North Iraq are characterized by a higher content of chromite. This paper deals with the mineralogy and geochemistry of chromite in the heavy mineral assemblages from Recent fluvial sediments in ...

Nineteen field vertical electrical soundings have been made in the area east of Sohag to provide hydrogeologic information for groundwater exploration. These sounding are interpreted using programs for the automatic ...

Combined paleontological and petrological studies on the Eocene rocks at Maghagha revealed that the succession belongs to one biostratigraphic zone; the Numrnulites gizehensis gizehensis zone. Nummulites striatus was ...

A geochronological sequence of the main phases of igneous activity in Egypt during the Mesozoic is presented in this paper. This is essentially based on scrutinized isotopic age data. New K / Ar ages are also included. Three ...

This paper describes and illustrates the calcareous nannoplankton (coccoliths) recorded in 240 samples collected from the Paleogene rocks in Wadi Belayim/Wadi Nukhul surface sections. Gulf of Suez area. Egypt. Thirty species ...

Geochemical analysis were performed in lower subsurface soil samples of 10,20,30 and 40cm depth, collected from seven regions in the northern Jordan valley. Eighteen descriptors (variables) for each sample were used. Among ...
