Geology and petrology of the margin of the Rhum ultrabasic intrusion, Inner Hebrides, Scotland

Greenwood, Richard C. January 1988 (has links)
Country rocks surrounding the Rhum Tertiary ultrabasic complex have experienced severe thermal metamorphism, partial melting and mobilization resulting in the formation of extensive areas of intrusion breccia. Evidence from several sources indicates a maximum temperature in the country rocks of 960 ± 40°C. Contrary to previous suggestions the complex was not emplaced as a fault block enclosed by a "Marginal Gabbro", but formed in situ at a depth of less than 1Km. Large-scale layering continues to within 2m of the country rocks, and shows no change in either thickness or orientation close to the contact. Smallscale layers at Harris Bay thin and terminate towards the contact with the Western Granophyre. Strontium isotope data showsthat the margins of the complex have experienced considerable crustal contamination. Contamination may have taken place by mixing of anatectic country rock melt with the resident basaltic liquid during boundary flow. Whole-rock and isotope geochemistry suggests that marginal microgranodiorite ("hybrid rocks") formed during a process of combined assimilation and fractional crystallization. Lead isotope data indicate that rocks of the ultrabasic complex, as well as earlier Tertiary granophres and felsites, were contaminated with Lewisian lead. The crustal level at which this took place and the processes involved remain unclear. Oxygen isotope analyses show that rocks of the contact zone have undergone large-scale exchange with heated, meteoric fluids. In response to inflation of the complex the country rocks experienced considerable deformation, and in places the chamber roof underwent gravity collapse. Deformation resulted in increased country rock permeability, thus enhancing hydrothermal circulation and promoting high-cooling rates along the contact zone. A consequence of this process is the local preservation of quenched ultrabasic material at Harris Bay, and the ubiquitous development of rapid growth textures in all lithologies within the contact zone.

Contribution à l'étude de l'influence des micro-organismes sur la composition du rhum

Magnet, Raphël 01 January 1997 (has links) (PDF)
Le rhum de la distillerie de Savanna est obtenu après fermentation par les levures puis distillation d'un mout constitué de mélasse et d'eau. Nous avons donc étudié la composition de la mélasse. Celle-ci se révèle riche en composés aromatiques qui sont à l'origine des nombreux composés chimiques présents dans les rhums. Nous avons identifié plus de 100 composés chimiques dans la mélasse dont un isomère de la béta-damascenone. Cet isomère pourrait présenter les notes organoleptiques caractéristiques du rhum. Un travail particulier sur des précurseurs d'arômes existant sous forme glycosylée a été entrepris. Puis nous avons étudié le comportement de sept souches de levure et de neuf souches de bactérie en fermentation. Certains paramètres de la fermentation ont été suivis. Nous avons ensuite travaillé sur la composition des distillats. Une étude quantitative et qualitative sur les composés des distillats a été menée. Elle permet de différencier les micro-organismes en fonction des composés chimiques formés pendant la fermentation. Plus de 250 composés ont été identifiés dont 11 n'avaient jamais été mentionnés auparavant dans les rhums. Ce travail permet de se rendre compte de l'importance de la composition de la matière première utilisée et de la nature du micro-organisme employée pendant la fermentation, dans la composition finale du produit.
