Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3Analysis of Mosaic Mortars From the Roman, Byzantine and Early Islamic Periods Sourced From Gerasa's Northwest Quarter(Springer, 2024-05-24) Ball, Richard J.; Ansell, Martin P.; Su-Cadirci, Tugce Busra; Baki, Vahiddin Alperen; Fletcher, Philip J.; Lichtenberger, Achim; Wootton, WillThis study analyses and compares around 650 years of mosaic mortar production spanning the Roman, late Roman and Umayyad periods, at Gerasa/Jerash in Jordan, offering a better understanding of composition, structural features, and manufacturing processes. It assesses the value of optical and electron microscopy examination of morphological and textural features, pore structure using MIP, and composition studies using EDX, XRD, FTIR, TGA, and Raman spectroscopy. The study indicated high density lime adhesive was used compared to other mortars. Wood was used as a fuel when producing the lime and natural fibres were incorporated when manufacturing mortars. Aggregates were primarily calcitic with a small proportion of silica-based aggregates. Key outcomes of the study conclude that early Roman mortars were of highest quality, which was demonstrated through the careful selection of materials including different stone for lime and tesserae, and differences between layers. Late Roman mortars used the same slaked lime plus fibres and charcoal. Mortars dating from the Umayyad period also had the same higher lime content than late Roman, but higher porosity with fibres and charcoal. In general, the mortars showed slight differences in content and aggregate; different stone for lime and tesserae. The research attests to underlying traditions as well as changes in mortar mixes and methods according to context and time. The resulting data is contextualized within local and regional approaches.Article Citation - Scopus: 2Kalsitik ve Dolomitik Kireçtaşlarının Çimentolu Macun Dolgunun Çevresel Davranışına Etkisi(Chamber of Mining Engineers of Turkey, 2022-03-07) Yılmaz, Tekin; Ercikdi, BayramTo enhance the strength and stability of cemented paste backfill (CPB), many alkaline materials are utilised as replacement or additive to binder or tailings in CPB. However, the effect of these materials on groundwater pollution of CPB needs to be comprehensively investigated. In this study, effects of the utilization of calcitic and dolomitic limestone (CL and DL) as replacement (10 wt.%) to sulphide mine tailings (S-MT) in CPB mixture on the long-term environmental behaviour of CPB were investigated. For this purpose, CPB samples (CPBs) were subjected to dynamic tank leaching tests over 360-days and the analyses of pH, sulphate (SO4 2-) and heavy metals (HMs) on the leachates were carried out. The effects of mineralogy and microstructure on the environmental behavior of CPBs were also examined by X-ray diffractometry and porosity tests. The findings showed that with the utilization of CL and DL, the pH of leachates remained at alkaline levels and the release of SO4 2- was significantly reduced. Furthermore, the denser microstructure in CPBs of CL and DL contributed to be prevented or be remarkably reduced the HMs-releases (except Cu, Mo and Pb). The results reveal that the mechanical properties of CPB as well as its impact on the groundwater pollution should be carefully evaluated. © 2022 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
