  • Groundwater chemistry in Namwon area, Korea, was investigated to understand the contribution of geochemical processes on groundwater chemistry. For this study, a total of 279 groundwater samples were collected from 93 wells distributed over the study area. Higher concentrations of major ions are generally encountered in the shallow alluvial wells, suggesting that these chemicals are originated from the surface contamination sources. Mass balance analysis based on reaction stoichiometry reveals that the water chemistry is regulated by three major chemical processes: weathering of silicate/ carbonate minerals, input of C1/SO$_4$ salts, and nitrate generating processes. The results show that mineral weathering is the most dominating factor regulating the groundwater chemistry. However, the groundwaters with the higher salt concentration indicate the larger mineral weathering effect, suggesting that some part of the mineral weathering effect is also associated with the anthropogenic activities such as limes applied to the cultivated lands, carbonates (CaCO$_3$) in the cement materials.

  • This study tries to reveal source areas of fluvial terrace deposits in Danyang and Geum River basins located in the northern and southern parts of the Sobaek Mountains, respectively, through geochemistry. The samples analyzed in this study show different grain size properties and can be grouped into the coarse, medium and fine samples. Grain size properties suggest that the coarse samples are typically fluvial deposits and geochemistry from the coarse samples is also similar to that from the bedrocks within the basins. The fine samples show geochemical properties different from the bedrocks and similar to loess deposits in Korea. However, different geochemical concentrations among the fine samples can be also recognized, indicating mixtures of loess materials with weathering products of the bedrocks. One sample among the medium samples is considered as fluvial deposit due to geochemical similarity to the bedrocks, while geochemistry from another sample among the medium samples indicates that loess materials were mixed with more abundant weathering products of the bedrocks than those in the fine samples.

  • 본 연구소는 소규모 유역에서 하천수와 지하수의 溶存이온 특성을 통하여 각종 이온들의 溶脫特性과 粘土鑛物의 형성환경, 化學的 風化量 등을 추정해 본 것이다. 필자는 본 연구를 위하여 1990년 10월 부터 1년간에 걸쳐 유량측정 및 수질분석을 실시하였고 야면의 4개 지점에서 점토광물을 분석하였다. 분석결과, 암석의 풍화에 의한 溶存物質은 전체의 약 39$%$ 미만이었고, 유역내의 풍화층에 집적되는 이온은 $H^+$, $K^+$, Fe, Mn 등이었다. 물질의 계절적인 收支特性과 水文學的 자료로 볼 때, 여름에는 Kaolinite가 열역학적 측면에서 안정된 점토광물이며, 2:1 점토광물도 Kaolinite로 변형될 가능성이 높다. 풍화에 유출되는 2차광물의 형성과 식생의 영향이 비교적 적은 $Na^+$를 사용하여 화학적 풍화량을 추정한 결과, 본 유역의 화강암이 1년에 화학적으로 풍화되는 양은 약 31.31g/$m^2$정도인 것으로 밝혀졌다.

  • 풍화작용은 여러 영역에 의해 지배를 받고 있으며 지형형성작용 중 가장 기본이 된다. 우리나라와 같이 화강암류로 구성된 지역에서는 다른 암석류로 구성된 지역보다 풍화작용이 활발히 진행되어 풍화산물이 많이 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 화강암 풍화산물이 형성된 영역과 기계적 풍화지수 및 특성을 살펴보았다. 그 결과 토화학적 풍화작용은 clayey gruss에서, 지화학적 풍화는 gruss에서, 쪼개짐작용은 풍화암석에서 강하게 작용하고 있었다. 기계적 풍화지수는 일반적으로 clayey gruss 계통은 5내외이고 gruss는 10내외 정도이었다. 그리고 입자붕괴는 풍화작용과 열수작용에 의해 형성되었으며, 세립질로 구성된 식토계통은 주로 열수영역을 많이 받았고 조립질로 구성된 사토계통은 풍화작용을 강하게 받았다.

  • Weathering of granites has a geochemical role of great significance, because of their abundance and because of chemical instability near the surface of the earth, which is more pronounced than in most other rocks. On the other hand the granites are tectonically fragile and "react" to deformation with marked facility, giving rise to a whole gamut of deformed rocks. Therefore, the writer has studied on the weathering of granitic rocks at of Iri city and Jeonju city Jeollabukdo, Korea, The fresh and weathered rocks were used as material for the investigation. The results obtained by chemical analysis and observation are as follows. 1) The order of mobility in major elements was Ca, Na and K$H_2O$ was observed clearly and late stages of weathering processes. 3) The early stage of weathering is commenced by physical weathering and followed by chemical weathering. 4) The ratio of FeO/. $Fe_2O_3$, FeO/MgO, and $SiO_2/Al_2O_3 $ decreased uniformly from early to late stage of weathering processes. 5) It was proved that weathering potential of granite was larger than that of basaltic rocks.

  • 전남 나주시 장동리 지역의 화강암 풍화대를 피복하는 적갈색 점토-실트 퇴적물 단면(~2 m)에 대하여 광물학적 및 지화학적 특성 분석을 실시하였다. 퇴적물은 주로 석영(50%)과 점토광물(45%)로 구성되어 있으며, 소량의 K-장석, 침철석, 적철석, 깁사이트로 구성되어 있다. 점토광물은 일라이트(일라이트, 일라이트-스멕타이트 혼합층), 질석(질석, 수산화-Al 질석), 고령석(캐올리나이트, 할로이사이트) 계열의 점토광물로 구성되어 있다. 광물 및 화학조성의 수직 함량변화는 미미하며, 사장석과 녹니석이 전반적으로 결핍되어 있으나 최상부에 소량 함유되어 있다. 점토광물의 주성분이 일라이트 계열이므로 퇴적물의 기원물질은 주변 고령토질 화강암 풍화물이 아니라, 먼 기원지에서 유래한 풍성퇴적물로 판단된다. 현생 황사의 광물조성과 비교하면, 퇴적 후의 심한 화학적 풍화작용으로 사장석과 K-장석이 거의 없어지고, 석영과 점토광물로 구성된 광물학적 특성을 갖게 되었다. 풍화과정에서 사장석과 녹니석은 각각 고령토 광물과 질석으로 변질되었으며, 함철 유색광물의 풍화과정에서 침철석과 적철석이 침전되어 퇴적물이 적갈색을 띠게 되었다. 이 지역의 적갈색 점토-실트는 한반도 타지역 풍성퇴적물과 광물학적 및 지화학적 특성을 공유하므로 풍성퇴적물로 추정되지만, 이에 대해서는 퇴적물 연대측정이나 동위원소 분석 등의 추가 검증이 필요하다.

  • Chemical analysis, statistical analysis and geochemical study were carried out to investigate the influence of the geology on the chemical characferistics of the mineral water in Taegu area. A simple comparision between the chemical components of the mineral water and their bedrocks indicates that the bedrock types in the catchmerit area control the chemical characteristics of the surface water. However more objective evidences for the mineral water-bedrock relationship come from the statistical analyses(cluster analysis and factor analysis). The results of the statistical analyses suggest that the bedrock type factor explains the data variation seven times as much as pollution does, which evidently indicates that the bedrock in the study area mainly control the mineral water chemistries. The results of comparision of the statistical analyses results with the mineral weathering reactions and mineral stability diagrams can be summarized as follows: 1. Plagioclase weathering to kaolinite provides SiO$_2$ , Ca$^{2+}$ and Na$^+$, and muscovite weathering to kaolinite provides K$^+$, and amphibole and mica minerals weathering to kaolinite provides F to the mineral water. Most of Ca$^{2+}$ and Mg$^{2+}$ in the mineral water are the products of carbonate mineral dissolution. SO$_4^{2-}$ may be the byproduct of sulfide oxidation. 2. The weatering of silicate mineral produces Ca-rich smectite and kaolinite, but Ca-rich smectite is unstable and will be transformed to more stable kaolinite because of the continuous dilution of the mineral water by precipitation. By Hashimoto's Mineral Balance Index, S-10 and S-12 mineral spring water were evaluated tasty and healthy water, S-9 and S-11 mineral spring water were evaluated tasty water and S-7, S-8 and S-13 mineral spring water were evaluated healthy water.

  • Sedimentary organic matter, exposed to continental surficial environment, reacts with oxygen supplied from the atmosphee and forms carbon-containing oxidation products. Knowledge of the rate and mechanisms of sedimentary organic matter weathering is important because it is one of the major controls on atmospheric oxygen level through geologic time. Under the abiological conditions, the oxidation rate of coal organic matter by molecular oxygen is enhanced by the increase of oxygen concentration and temperature. At ambient temperature and pressure, aqueous coal oxidation results in the formation of dissolved $CO_2$ dissolved organic carbon and solid oxidation products which are all quantitatively significant reaction products. The effects of pH, ultraviolet light, and microbial activity on the weathering of sedimentary organic matter are poorly contrained. Based on the results of geochmical and environmental studies, it is believed that the photochemical reaction should play an important role in the decomposition and oxidation of sedimentary organic matter removed from the weathering profile. At higher pH conditions, the production rate of DOC can be accelerated due to base catalysis. These high molecular weight oranic matter can react with man-made pollutants such as heavy metal ions via adsorption/desorption or ion exchange reactions. The effect of microbial activity on the oxidative weathering of sedimentary organic matter is poorly understood and remains to be studied.

  • To examine the geochemical behavior and pollution of soils in Gwangju City, an analysis was carried out for pH, on the contents of metals, and organic carbon. Soil samples were taken from environs areas, industrial areas and downtown areas. The major factor controlling the behavior of metallic elements in the soil was chemical weathering of clay mineral in the environs areas, industrialization, and urbanization. Heavy metals including Cu, Pb and Zn were highly enriched for the samples from central part of downtown area. This indicated that the urbanization and the industrialization affected soil pollution. The results show that soil pollution in a metropolitan city which is caused by harmful heavy metals is severest in the center of the city. In consequence, it is inevitable that practical measures should be taken to prevent soil pollution expansion.
