An overview of quantitative approaches to analysis and modelling of sediment generation
and provenance is presented, with an emphasis on major framework components as …

Zircons are abundant in the beach sediments. In this study, surface microtexture,
mineralogy, bulk sediment geochemistry, trace element composition and U–Pb isotopic …

Sedimentary rocks examined by the Curiosity rover at Yellowknife Bay, Mars, were derived
from sources that evolved from an approximately average martian crustal composition to one …

This paper contributes to understanding the intractable problems in provenance study due to
hydraulic sorting and geochemical heterogeneity in medium, fine, and very fine sands. For …

In this study, we analyzed the mineralogy and bulk chemical composition of 20 sediment
samples, as well as trace, rare earth element (REE) concentrations and U–Pb ages of 400 …

Abstract Texture, mineralogy, geochemistry, and 14 C ages of two deep-sea sediment cores
(GM6 and GM7) recovered in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico were investigated to infer their …

This study investigates the petrographic, mineralogical, geochronological, and geochemical
signatures of river sands across southern Africa. We single out the several factors that …

This study presents a combined petrographical and geochemical investigation to track the
compositional changes in the Mesozoic sedimentary record during the evolution of the …

Abstract The Asara Shale Member of the Karaj Formation, Middle to Upper Eocene in age,
includes mixed volcaniclastic, siliciclastic and carbonate strata, in the Alborz Mountains …

This paper investigates the provenance of Middle Jurassic to Early Cretaceous sediments in
the Kutch Basin, western India, on the basis of mineralogical investigations of sandstones …
