Título: Pelotherapy and electrotherapy in one single therapeutic modality
Autor: Bastos, Carla Marina; Rocha, Fernando; Gomes, Nuno; Marinho Reis, A. Paula
Resumo: [Excerpt] Introduction Pelotherapy and electrotherapy are therapeutic methodologies with proven success in physical medicine and rehabilitation (PMR) and dermatology fields. The main purpose of these therapeutic modalities is to reduce pain, accelerate wound healing, alleviate muscle spasms, and improve mobility and muscle tone.[...]

Resumo: For more than two centuries, sulfide gold ores have been treated at metallurgical plants
located in Nova Lima, Santa Barbara and Crixás. Brazil. In this study, geochemical,
mineralogical, and textural properties of tailings from eight tailings deposits were
analysed. The samples show high concentration of Au, hosted in different minerals. In
addition, samples contain S, Fe, and As. Sulfides, oxides, and sulfates are present, some as
preserved relics. This work highlights different geochemistry and mineralogy, dependent
on the nature of the tailings. Such information is critical to support long-term decisions
about tailings management and circular economy.

Resumo: Sulfate salt efflorescent are typical minerals associated with acid mine waters. These efflorescences play relevant roles in mining environments since they are highly soluble and contain potentially toxic elements. Therefore, information about the stability and thermodynamics of these secondary minerals is essential to comprehend the possible behavior in dehydration reactions and, consequently, previewing seasonal cycles of retention-mobilization of toxic elements in mine-influenced waters. The present work aims to characterize the transition phases related to dehydration processes of mineinfluenced water collected in a mine site with extreme contamination the Rio Tinto mining area (Spain).

Resumo: UNESCO Global Geoparks (UGGps) are excellent teaching opportuni- ties as outdoor classrooms and incubators of sustainable development, sustainable lifestyles, appreciation of natural and cultural diversity, and promotion of peace. Naturtejo UGGp offers educational programmes addressed to the school public (formal education) since 2007, focused on geosciences education for sustainability. These programmes intend to contribute to the conservation and promotion of the local natural and cultural heritage, as well as to the sustainable development of this Portuguese territory. The educational activities are promoted with different partners and are addressed to students and teachers from the kindergarten to the university. Most of the activities are outdoor activities with the purpose to re-connect young people with nature. This link has been weakening particularly in larger towns but it is essential to re-establish an emotional bound between future responsible citizens and the natural environment.

Resumo: [Excerto] 1. O granito… O granito (do latim “granum” – grão, relativo à textura da rocha) é um tipo comum de rocha magmática, resultante da solidificação do magma proveniente de uma câmara magmática, em profundidade. É classificada como intrusiva ou plutónica, pois resulta do arrefecimento do magma, no interior da crosta terrestre, nas partes profundas da litosfera, sem contactar com a superfície.[...]
