Some features of geological structure of the Shikotan Island (Lesser Kuril Arc)—A view from 'Space' by Evgeny P Terekhov, Anatoly V Mozherovsky

“…It has been shown that the gabbroid massif of Tsunami Bay (northeastern part of the island) is an autochthonous (local) formation, and not allochthonous, that is, brought from the Pacific Ocean, as evidenced by an intrusive contact with the rocks of the Malokuril'skaya Suite. Despite these positive results, analysis of satellite images of Shikotan Island unexpectedly has not confirmed the existence of the Central Shikotan thrust fault, the largest previously mapped tectonic structure on the island. …”

HEAVY CONCENTRATE GOLD ASSOCIATIONS IN THE BASIN OF THE KUKULKINDZHA CREEK (OKHOTSK REGION OF THE KHABAROVSK KRAI) by A.Ya. Nefedova, I.K. Kotova, М.А. Pavlova, D.I. Smirnov, D.А. Guskov, S.V. Petrov

“…The minerals of the garnet group with dominant grossular-andradite composition and the minerals of the pyroxene group (diopside–hedenbergite series characteristic of contact metamorphosed rocks) are always found in heavy concentrates. Three stable mineral assemblages of native gold are identified on the basis of statistical analysis of geochemical and mineralogical data. …”

Analysis of Aeromagnetic Data for Enhancing Geologic Features Using Filtering Techniques Over the Congo Craton–Pan-African Belt Contact, Centre-East Cameroon by Jean Aimé Mono, Apollinaire Bouba, Olivier Ulrich Igor Owono Amougou, Jean Daniel Ngoh, Françoise Martine Enyegue A. Nyam, Théophile Ndougsa Mbarga

“…The results indicate that the study area can be divided into four magnetic units based on the magnetic properties (magnetic susceptibility, geometry, and depth) of the underlying rocks. The THD method reveals the presence of pseudocircular and linear structures, which are associated with mafic intrusions and faults, respectively. …”
