Experimental Study Of The Thermal Cracking Mechanism Of Limestones During Burning, Zhang Weiqiang, Cao Zhicheng, Zhou Qizhong, Wang Zuoquan, Wu Yun
Coal Geology & Exploration
Spontaneous combustion of coal seams will cause different degrees of structural damage to surrounding rocks at different high temperatures, significantly altering their physical and mechanical properties and engineering geological effects. To delve into the structural evolution patterns of rocks during burning, this study investigated the limestones from the floor of a coal mine in Xuzhou. It conducted thermal cracking experiments under different temperatures, exploring the thermal cracking patterns of rocks on multiple scales. Furthermore, this study revealed the genetic mechanism of thermal cracking by combining numerical simulations and microstructure tests. Key findings are as follows: (1) The thermal cracking temperature …

Genetic Mechanisms Of Hot Dry Rock Geothermal Resources In Central Inner Mongolia, Xiong Bo, Xu Hao, Tang Shuling, Wang Shejiao, Fang Chaohe, Xin Fudong, Wu Jingjie, Wei Xiangquan, Song Xuejing, Wang Jinwei
Coal Geology & Exploration
Central Inner Mongolia, located at the junction of plates, has undergone multi-phase tectono-magmatic activities and boasts abundant shallow hydrothermal resources. However, there is a lack of in-depth research on deep hot dry rock (HDR) geothermal resources in this region. Based on the regional geological and tectonic settings, magnetotelluric sounding results, and geothermal anomaly manifestations, this study systematically explored the genetic mechanisms and geodynamic process of HDR geothermal resources in central Inner Mongolia and determined the genetic modes of HDRs. The results show that the major heat sources of deep HDR geothermal resources in the region include deep local melts and …
Genetic Mechanisms Of Low-Temperature Geothermal Water And Its Associated Helium Gas In Meixian County In The Piedmont Of Qinling Mountains, Han Yuanhong, Lyu Jun, Zhang Yuping, Luo Naning, Li Bing, Shen Xiaolong
Genetic Mechanisms Of Low-Temperature Geothermal Water And Its Associated Helium Gas In Meixian County In The Piedmont Of Qinling Mountains, Han Yuanhong, Lyu Jun, Zhang Yuping, Luo Naning, Li Bing, Shen Xiaolong
Coal Geology & Exploration
Meixian County in the piedmont of the Qinling Mountains boasts abundant geothermal water resources with high-abundance associated helium gas. However, the characteristics and origin of geothermal fluids in the study area are yet to be studied. By analyzing the chemical composition and isotopic geochemistry of geothermal fluids and combining the distributions of regional structures and faults, this study delved into the characteristics and genetic mechanisms of geothermal fluids in the study area. The results show that the geothermal water exhibits salinity ranging from 638.96 to 1026.83 mg/L and a hydrochemical type of HCO3-Na. The low-degree metamorphism suggests that …
