Geospatial Profiling for Threshold Mapping of Hydrothermal Alterations within Kushaka Schist Belt, North Central Nigeria: Implications for Mineral Exploration

J. N. Gajere, E. A. Kudamnya & W. T. Andongma · Asian Journal of Geological Research · 2018

Determining thresholds are very useful and efficacious in hydrothermal alteration mapping because of their association with mineral deposits. Thus, quantifying the degree of association can serve as a reliable and definitive way of separating highly to less altered zones. This ca...

Determination of Aquifer Hydraulic and Statistical Parameters Using Granulometric Method in Yenagoa, Southern Nigeria

G. C. George & O. A. Oki · Asian Journal of Geological Research · 2018

Grain-size analysis of aquifer sand samples from Yenagoa was carried out by the mechanical sieving technique. Using the grain-size analysis curves, mean representative grain diameters d10 and d60 were determined and porosity was derived from the empirical relationship between por...
