1044858 - ORE DEPOSITS AND PROCESSING OF GEOMATERIALS |
Developing competences and learning outcomes
Educational goals: Knowledge of the major metallogenic processes. Knowledge of the main classifications of mineral deposits. Acquisition of the basic principles of ore mineralogy for the identification of metallic ores. Knowledge of the main physical and mechanical properties of stone materials. Knowledge of the processes of degradation of stone materials and the main forms of alteration. Acquisition of the main investigation techniques for the characterization of stone materials.
Learning ouctomes: Students will acquire basic elements on the origin, the main characteristics of the mineralizing fluids and the main types of mineral deposits. Students who pass the exam will be able to apply concepts and principles useful to recognize the main types of mineral deposits and frame the metallogenic processes in relation to their different geodynamic environments. Acquire basic elements on the main physical and mechanical properties of stone materials, the processes of degradation of stone materials and the main forms of alteration. Apply important concepts and principles to recognize the main forms of alteration of stone materials and define the main physical and mechanical properties of stone materials. In addition, at the end of the course students will be able to characterize using various analytical methods the main types of stone materials. In addition, at the end of the course students will be able to recognize the main metallic minerals by microscopic observations in reflected light. |
