We present trace element and Sr–Nd–Hf–Pb isotope compositions for clinopyroxenes from anhydrous spinel peridotite garnet ± pyroxenite xenoliths of Pan-African lithospheric mantle Jordan, including the first high-precision double-spike Pb measurements clinopyroxene. Clinopyroxenes peridotites are variably Th–U–LILE–LREE enriched display prominent negative Nb, Zr Ti anomalies. MREE–HREE abundances can generally be modelled as partial melting residues lherzolite with primitive-mantle-like...
Penecontemporaneous deformation and erosional structures are described from the inclined bedrock margins of Late Ordovician (Hirnantian) tunnel valleys in south Jordan. These include micro-faults, glacial striae grooves, newly micro-slips. Together with basal diamictites they indicate contact ice-mass underlying (Tubayliyat Sandstone Fm.) during erosion valleys. Stria/grooves oriented parallel at right angles to axes; this latter sense movement is supported by associated micro-slips throw on...
Abstract The Dead Sea rift (DSR), developed along the transform plate boundary, is characterized by salient flanks and morphotectonic asymmetry. Apatite fission track thermochronology (AFT) ~1200 m high vertical profiles in Neoproterozoic basement overlying Cambrian sandstone southwestern Jordan used to reconstruct timing, magnitude, rate of uplift denudation eastern DSR flank examine its relationship development landscape. Time‐temperature models based on AFT data suggest three major...
A combined process is proposed for the utilization of local kaolin to produce alumina particles. The applied made in two stages: calcination at 700 °C with sodium chloride and leaching sulfuric followed by hydrochloric acids. optimal extraction efficiency can be obtained when conditions are as follows: temperature 140 °C, time 3 h 45 min concentration acid 40 wt.%. results show that purity reaches 79.28%, which suitable production aluminum metal. It evident this method from ash practical...
Mo and Ni metals could be hazardous in natural waters. The initial concentration the sampled domestic drinking water of north Jordan is 550 110 μg/L, respectively. efficiency using faujasite–phillipsite phillipsite–chabazite tuffs removing from contaminated was tested. Batch experiments different weights adsorbent were conducted at contact times to determine optimum conditions. maximal uptake capacity equivalent 440–420 μg/g adsorbent. maximum removal by faujasite–phillipsite,...
Olive Mill Solid Residue (OMSR) can be utilized as a bio-sorbent in wastewater treatment. Even though several studies on OMSR were carried out, there is still need to investigate simple and relatively inexpensive treatment that increases pollutant removal. In this study; used batch experiments remove toxic heavy metals from aqueous solutions including Cd2+, Cu2+, Pb2+ ions. The effect of (untreated; OMSR-U, treated with n-hexane; OMSR-H, water; OMSR-W) was investigated by chemical oxygen...
A natrolite-cemented palagonite ash tuff unit is reported in a palaeo-basin northeast Jordan. Phillipsite and chabazite are also identified. The zeolites were formed due to transformation of volcanic glass granules into by the reaction with percolating water closed hydrological system. Consequently, Si, Al, Ca, Na K leached out precipitated series authigenic layers developed at extreme edge granules. recorded paragenetic sequence smectite → phillipsite natrolite analcime calcite. studied...
This paper reports results of a detailed geochemical analysis carried out on representative oil shale samples obtained from the Attarat Um Ghudrandeposit, in Jordan. The conducted tests aimed to determine main features studied samples, such as yield, calorific value, organic and inorganic composition moisture content. Based large number received without any treatment, it was found that other types shale, elsewhere, Ghudran consists several major constituents. These are matter, biogenic...
