The result of landslide susceptibility assessment (LSA) can be used for landslide hazard management and emergency rescue. Lixian County in Sichuan Province is selected to be the study area for its frequent landslides. Based on the correlation analysis and geological environment interpretation, a total of 9 controlling factors of landslide were selected (i.e., lithology, elevation, slope curvature, slope angle, aspect, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), slope length, distance to river...

Several sets of sandstones are developed in the Benxi Formation of Carboniferous in the Upper Paleozoic in the Ordos Basin, which are transitional facies of Marine and continental facies and have significant unconventional natural gas potential. In order to reveal the sedimentary reservoir characteristics of the Upper Carboniferous Benxi Formation in the southeastern Ordos Basin, this paper makes comprehensive use of drilling and logging data, combined with various experiments, and conducts an i...

The resource potential of the Triassic Yanchang Formation’s Chang 6 reservoir in the southeastern part of the Ordos Basin’s slope is large, whereas it is poor levels of exploration, and reservoir evaluation is not perfect enough, so that, limiting future exploration in this area. It is underpinned by core of detailed observations and descriptions of the Chang 6 reservoir system, typical samples of various sample, oil-bearing properties, and sedimentary structures were collected, and further anal...

The formation time of the Chang 6 reservoir was determined semi-quantitatively by petrographic observation, fluorescence spectral analysis, homogeneous temperature test and salinity calculation of fluid inclusions in the Chang 6 reservoir of the Qilicun oilfield, as well as sonic time difference method to recover the stripping thickness of the strata at the end of the Early Cretaceous, based on the study method of burial-thermal evolution history map with homogeneous temperature cast points of i...

Longdong area is located on the southwest edge of the Ordos basin. As the Indosinian movement at the end of the Triassic led to the uplift and erosion of the Ordos basin, the pre Jurassic ancient landform in Longdong area was formed. The erosion weathering time, erosion depth, late filling, etc. of different geomorphic units are obviously different, forming the unconformity structure of different geomorphic units. After studying the logging curve, element geochemistry, physical property and othe...

This study concerns the use of isotope techniques to assess groundwater resource management in mining area. The objective of the study is first to estimate the groundwater residence time in the peninsula of Ampasindava and secondly to determine the relationship between wastewater from mining activity and groundwater resource in the study area by using environmental isotopes. It will contribute to clarifying the impact of the mining activity waste water on the groundwater in the study area. The s...

Salt-affected soils are widespread in arid and semi-arid areas irrigated around the world, where low-quality irrigation water is common. Every minute, the world loses at least ten hectares (ha) of arable land, three hectares of which are due to salinization issues, particularly in the irrigated desert and semi-arid regions. The cost of soil salinization for agriculture is now estimated at more than $12 billion per year and is expected to increase as soils are increasingly impacted by irrigation ...

Douala, situated between latitude 4.00 - 4.15 and longitude 9.65 - 9.95, is the economic capital of Cameroon in the Littoral Region and it hosts more than 80% of the industries in the Country. Increased urbanization and agricultural activities have a potential for trace metal contamination as such, the trace metal evaluation of groundwater in Douala begs our attention. This study investigated the trace metal content of groundwater sources; determined estimates of the health hazard and pollution ...

Douala is the economic capital of Cameroon situated between latitude 4.00 - 4.15 and longitude 9.65 - 9.95 with an estimated population of over two million and 65,000 households connected to the water supply network. The Douala/Kribi-Campo Basin is a divergent, marginal rift basin and one of the two Atlantic coastal basins of Cameroon, the other being the Rio del Rey Basin. This study evaluates the quality of packaged (Bottled/Sachet/Refilled) groundwater in Douala using hydrogeochemical tools: ...

The Tsumeb polymetallic deposit of Otavi Mountain Land (OML), Namibia, is a prominent deposit of remarkable and complex mineral species with the accreditation of about 337 valid minerals. A total of 72 species of these minerals are of Tsumeb as the type of locality. The deposit was first prospected in 1893 by the South West Africa Company and it was mined from the year 1897 to 1996, yielding a total of about 30 Mt of ore with the grade of 10% Pb, 4.3% Cu, and 3.5% Zn along with ore minerals of A...
