Nitrogen geochemistry data of extrusive igneous rocks from Hekla volcano, Iceland

The data set contains major, trace element, and stable isotope (Si, Zn, Mo, V, Tl, Zr) from previous studies and new nitrogen abundance and stable isotope values for 17 samples spanning a range of...

Major and trace element whole rock analyses of igneous rock samples from the Virgin Islands

Major and trace element whole rock analyses of igneous rock samples from the Virgin Islands. Samples were collected from Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Norman Island, Beef Island and Peter Island. Major...

The BGS Rock Classification Scheme

The BGS Rock Classification Scheme (RCS) is a comprehensive classification scheme for all types of rocks and unconsolidated sediments worldwide. It is intended to be used for classification of...

Microstructural measurements of mafic igneous rocks (NERC Grant NE/N009894/1)

Measurements of the shape and size of plagioclase and olivine grains in a suite of dolerite dykes and sills. The olivine data refer to the family of sills forming the Little Minch Sill Complex...

Geochemical data from hydrothermal vents and distal areas near the North-Atlantic Igneous Province (NAIP) during the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum (PETM)

The data include organic carbon and nitrogen abundances, carbon isotopes, nitrogen isotopes, major and trace element abundances, RockEval and mercury abundances from sedimentary strata across the...

GeoSure Soluble Rocks

The GeoSure data sets and reports from the British Geological Survey provide information about potential ground movement or subsidence in a helpful and user-friendly format. The reports can help...

GeoSure soluble rocks version 8

This dataset provides an assessment of the potential for dissolution within a geological deposit. Ground dissolution occurs when certain types of rock contain layers of material that may dissolve...

C.R. Lindsey's Rock Sample Collection

Historic collection of 1,974 miscellaneous rock samples collected by C.R. Lindsey. Consists of rock samples as well as paper registration documents: catalogue, index and seven note books.

Hot Dry Rocks - Scotland

Hot dry rocks are a potential source of geothermal energy. In Scotland they are likely to exist as buried high heat production granites. Alongside other data from the Scotland Heat Map, information...

Marine BedRock Geological Map Data - UK waters - 250K (DigRock250)

This dataset is now superseded by Marine bedrock dataset (DiGRock250k) version 3. The BedRock data shows polygonal and selected linear geological information, sourced from published BGS 1:250 000...

Core Flood Experiments on carbonate rocks

Grant: ACT ELEGANCY, Project No 271498. Medical CT scans for drainage multiphase flow through carbonate rock cores. The steady state drainage multiphase flow at elevated pressure using nitrogen and...

Nitrogen geochemistry of igneous units from Loch Doon, Scotland (NERC Grant NE/P012167/1)

This dataset contains the nitrogen, oxygen, and lithophile element geochemistry of whole rock, and distribution coefficients, and stable isotope fractionation factors for biotite, orthoclase, and...

Foreign sliced rock collection

The foreign sliced rock or 'F' collection consists of about 10, 000 specimens and thin sections, cited by their 'F' numbers. These include material archived from recent overseas projects and much...

This layer of the map based index (GeoIndex) shows the locations of over 12,500 rock samples from the land area of the United Kingdom gathered as part of the Mineral Reconnaissance Programme (MRP)....

Hydrological Rock class by Soil Association

Dominant hydrological rock class associated with each soil association in the national map plus a break down of the proportion of the soil association within each of the classes

UKGEOS bulk rock and dissolved organic carbon assessment

The data reported include, percent total organic carbon (%TOC), bulk rock, solvent extracted and water extracted Rock Eval Pyrolysis (Rock Eval) and Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry (EA-irMS),...

Mechanical data on Unzen rock samples

This dataset contains raw mechanical measurements of standard uniaxial tests in 1) tension; 2) compression; 3) compression with creep deformation (load hold); 4) compression with creep and...

A Pilot Experiment on Rock Weathering in Permafrost
