When tunneling in karst mountainous areas, some adverse geological conditions such as karst caves and water-rich strata are often encountered, which may induce unexpected geological hazards and represent major hidden threats to construction safety. This paper describes the successful use of integrated investigation techniques in …

The East Kirkton Limestone in the upper part of the West Lothian Oil Shale formation is a thinly bedded freshwater limestone. It lies within a thick succession of lavas and volcanic ash. Black mudstones lying above the limestone were also …

This study assesses the origin of spherulites from the Early Carboniferous alkaline lacustrine East Kirkton Limestone in Scotland, together with laboratory experiments. The outcrop study shows that the spherulites are widely distributed and mainly occur in 1) thin, low energy organic-rich laminites and 2) thicker, higher energy …

Magnetic and resistivity geophysical surveys conducted across the only known exposure of the East Kirkton Limestone have produced new information upon its extent. This is important to determine because of its unique faunal assemblage and possible hot spring deposition, suggesting a potential for precious metal mineralisation. Magnetic anomalies …

The East Kirkton Limestone found in the quarry formed during a period of volcanic activity around 330 million years ago, when a pile of basalt lava flows and ash layers built up in this area. Layers of calcium carbonate were precipitated as a result of the hot spring activity, forming a thinly bedded limestone which is exposed in the quarry.

Due to scarcity of precipitation in Egypt, the groundwater is the basic source of fresh water in the regions located far from the River Nile. This contribution represents an integration between geophysical and hydrogeochemical studies to determine the distribution of groundwater and assess the water quality of the fractured limestone aquifer in the …

The East Kirkton Limestone (West Lothian, Lower Carboniferous, Scotland) is constituted by an interesting array of uncommon freshwater calcium carbonate components (spherulites, botryoidal crusts ...

The range of taphonomic effects observed in these and larger individuals suggests that, as a consequence of poor preservation, the morphology of some Upper Palaeozoic scorpions has been misinterpreted by previous workers. ABSTRACT Scorpions from East Kirkton Quarry are represented by abundant cuticle fragments and rarer articulated specimens. …

ABSTRACT Stable isotope data from the East Kirkton succession are used to elucidate the extent of hot-spring influence in the palaeoenvironment by constraining conditions of deposition of the silica and the formation of sulphides. Petrographically silica occurs as chert laminae thought to be primary, and as patchy chert considered as replacive. No …
