Characteristics of basalt aquifers and basement formations

Case of Bapa and Koutaba in the Western Highlands - Cameroon

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book presents a comparison of the mineralization of water that has circulated at the contact of basalts and basement formations. The results of the study are derived from morpho-structural, petrographic and hydrogeochemical approaches. The Koutaba sector has a dominance of basalts composed of olivine, clinopyroxene, plagioclase and opaque oxides, put in place through faults of major directions: N10-20°E, N60-70°E and N130-140°E. However, the Bapa sector is dominated by granite composed of biotite, mega crystals of alkaline feldspar, quartz, accessory minerals (apatite and zircon) and oxide, of general structural orientation NE-SW, N30-40°E, N130-140°E.The alkaline (Na, K), alkaline earth (Mg) elements and the total mineralization rate make it possible to differentiate the waters flowing through basalts and granites. The waters on basalt have a geochemical background dominated by Ca-Mg-Na-HCO3-SO4 with a relatively high total mineralization while the waters on granite are dominated by Ca-Na-K-HCO3-SO4 in addition to being characterized by low mineralization.

Autorenporträt

El Sr. FOTIE LELE Rodrigue, estudiante de doctorado, estudió geología en la Universidad de Dschang y recibió numerosos cursos de capacitación, en particular en las Universidades de Wits en Sudáfrica y Curtin en Australia. Allí estudió las especialidades relacionadas con la minería, lo que abrió su carrera en este sector y en la enseñanza, de ahí su deseo de obtener un doctorado.
