<p>The timescale for the generation of granitic magmas and their subsequent intrusion, crystallization, and cooling as plutons is no longer incompatible with the biblical time frames of the global, year-long Flood cataclysm and of 6,000-7,000 years for earth ...

<p>The main purpose of this study is to determine a safe angle for the rock slope at entry road cut slope Fraser's Hill. The data was analyzed by stereo-plot and then analyzed using kinematic to determine the maximum safe slope angle (MSSA) for the rock slope ...

<p>Geochemical investigation of samples from 20 granitic intrusions in six tectonic zones of the Hellenides shows that both I-type and S-type granites occur in the region. The I-type granites from four of the zones, namely the Rhodope Massif (RM), the Serbomacedonian ...
