W pracy zaprezentowano wyniki analiz składu izotopowego siarki w ok. 130 próbkach siarczków i 50 próbkach siarczanów, pobranych z różnych partii złoża eksploatowanego w kopalni Lubin. Proste siarczki miedzi mają izotopowo bardzo lekką siarkę. Dla digenitu średnią wartość δ34S określono na –35,9‰, a dla chalkozynu na –32,0‰. Również bornit ma niską wartość δ34S – średnio –31,7‰. Nieznacznie wyższe wartości stwierdzono dla chalkopirytu i covellinu – średnio –29,6 i –27,9‰. Najcięższą siarkę mają minerały szeregu tennantyt–tetraedryt: –9,3‰. Lekką izotopowo siarkę wykazuje także sfaleryt i galena – odpowiednio –27,1 i –25,4‰. Najlżejszy skład izotopowy siarki stwierdzono w pirycie i markasycie (–37,9‰). Wykazano systematycznie zaznaczające się różnice w składzie izotopowym siarczków, zależnie od ich wykształcenia i lokalizacji w złożu. Zgodnie z oczekiwaniem siarczany z kopalni Lubin cechują wyższe wartości δ34S, baryt – średnio 12,3‰, podobnie jak gips i anhydryt – 12,1‰. Gdy występują w żyłach z siarczkami mają one lżejszy skład od tego obserwowanego w żyłach płonnych. Najniższe wartości δ34S, zbliżone do składu siarczków miedzi, mają minerały wietrzeniowe – chalkantyt i epsomit.

The paper presents the results of sulphur isotopic analyses conducted on 130 samples of sulphides and 50 samples of sulphates, collected in different parts of the Lubin mine. Simple copper sulphides contain isotopically very light sulphur. For digenite average value of δ34S was found to be –35,9‰, and for chalcocite –32,0‰. Bornite also has low value of δ34S, on average –31,7‰. Slightly higher values were found for chalcopyrite and covellite: –29,6 and –27,9‰ on average. The heaviest sulphur is in tennantite–tetrahedrite series: –9,3‰. Sphalerite and galena also have isotopically light sulphur, –27,1 and –25,4‰, respectively. The lightest isotopic composition of sulphur was found in pyrite and marcasite (–37,9‰). There were found consistent differences in the isotopic composition of sulphides depending on their formation and localization in the deposit. Barite from the Lubin mine is shows higher values of δ34S: 12,3‰ on average, similarly to gypsum and anhydrite: 12,1‰. All those minerals have lighter composition when they occur in veins with sulphides comparing those in barren veins. Weathering sulphates – chalcantite and epsomite have the lowest values of δ34S, similar to the composition of copper sulphides.

The results of a complex investigation of the sulphate and arsenate assemblages forming in the weathering zone of selected ore deposits in the Sudetes are presented. The development of the weathering zone has been characterised in the polymetallic ore deposits at Miedzianka–Ciechanowice and Radzimowice, and the pyrite deposit at Wieściszowice, which differ in the chemical compositions of the ore and barren minerals and the hydrological conditions. Secondary sulphate and arsenate mineral assemblages vary significantly among the ore deposits under study. Their crystallization is discussed, taking into consideration the stability of particular minerals and the paths of their transformation. It is shown that these minerals have great potential as indicators of weathering processes. A significant role for microorganisms in the formation of the weathering zone of the ore deposits under study is also proven.

This paper presents the geomicrobiological analysis of acid water reservoirs and Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) developed in the weathering zone of pyrite-bearing schists near the closed-down pyrite mine in Wieściszowice (south-western Poland). The analysis was focused on two reservoirs characterized by different physical and chemical properties (pH, redox potential, content of sulphates and heavy metals). The study is the first thorough report on the geomicrobiological relationships taking place in the AMD setting in Wieściszowice and enables a description of the microbiological processes that significantly influence biogeochemical cycles of sulfur and iron in the analyzed water reservoirs. The reservoir water also harbors numerous big, organized microbial structures in the form of streamers. Samples of these structures were studied in detail using optical and electron microscopy, as well as microbiological cultivation and molecular methods. According to the obtained results, the slime streamers from the Wieściszowice mine are characterized by the co-occurrence of typical chemolithoautotrophic microorganisms oxidizing sulphur and iron together with sulphate reducing bacteria. The presence of these structures probably depends on the occurrence of iron (II) in the surrounding environment.

W pracy porównane zostały zespoły minerałów powstających z ekshalacji wulkanicznych na przykładzie fumaroli z krateru La Fossa (Vulcano, Wyspy Liparyjskie) i emisji gazów na płonących hałdach kopalni węgla kamiennego Górnośląskiego Zagłębia Węglowego. Mimo różnego pochodzenia, gorące gazy i pary obu tych środowisk wykazują bardzo wiele podobieństw, co skutkuje krystalizacją szeregu takich samych minerałów. Dotyczy to nie tylko pospolitych w tych środowiskach siarki i salmiaku rodzimego, ale także wielu minerałów siarczanowych, jak godowikowit, millosevichit, tschermigit; chlorkowych, jak kremersyt lub siarczkowych, np. bizmutynit. Ważniejsze różnice to przykładowo brak minerałów boranowych na hałdach, a minerałów organicznych na obszarach wulkanicznych. Występujące różnice, także regionalne w każdym z tych środowisk, wynikają głównie ze zmienności geochemicznej skał macierzystych.

This paper compares mineral assemblages forming from volcanic exhalations on the example of the La Fossa crater, Vulcano, Aeolian Islands and from the emission of gases on the burning coal-dumps of collieries of the Upper Silesian Coal Basin. Despite different origin, hot gases and vapors of both environments have many similarities, resulting in crystallization of many same minerals. This applies not only to sulphur and salammoniac, common in such environments, but also to many sulphates, such as godovikovite, millosevichite, tschermigite; chlorides, such as kremersite; or sulphides, such as bismuthinite. Major differences include, for instance, lack of borate minerals in the coal-dumps and of organic minerals in the volcanic areas. The diversity, including the regional differences within both environments, results mainly form geochemical variation of the parent rocks.

Assemblages composed of 11 ammonium min er als, mainly sulphates and chlorides, were recorded from four burning coal-dumps (BCD) in the Upper Silesian Coal Ba sin. Most of them are newly recorded from Poland. Minerals were identified using PXRD and SEM with EDS analyses. Salammoniac, NH4Cl, and tschermigite, (NH4)Al(SO4)2ź12H2O are the most common species on the BCD studied. Kremersite, (NH4,K)2[FeCl5(H2O)], is rare and coexists with members of the ammonioalunite–ammoniojarosite series. Boussingaultite, (NH4)2Mg(SO4)2ź6H2O, and more rarely clairite, (NH4)2Fe3(SO4)4(OH)3ź3H2O, and mascagnite, (NH4)2SO4, ac company numerous Mg, Al, Fe and Ca sulphate minerals. These usually occuras very fine admixtures forming coatings, small nodules or porous masses and were found on the BCD surface close to gas vents. Also a massive sulphate crust was found in the deeper part of the BCD nearby the fire zone. This crust is composed mainly of an hydrous sulphates: godovikovite, (NH4)(Al,Fe)(SO4)2 , and very minor sabieite, (NH4)Fe(SO4)2, and efremovite, (NH4)2Mg2(SO4)3, which were transformed into different hydrated sulphates in the outer zone of the crust. The fibrous or dendritic habit of many ammonium minerals, and the vesicular texture of some sulphate aggregates, point to their crystallization from the gas phase. Some ammonia miner ls may also have developed through hydration of prevlously formed phases or precipitated from locally formed aqueous solutions due to cooling or evaporation. The appear ance of ammonia minerals on BCD can be a useful indicator of the presence of underground fires.

The paper presents detailed geochemical survey of stream sediments in Zagożdżonka river system. The Zagożdżonka river drains agricultural areas and forests [Puszcza Kozienicka] and flows through towns-Pionki and Kozienice. The works [metallurgical, power plants, plastic materials, munitions-factory localized in towns put industrial and communal sewage into Zagożdżonka river. Active sediments (180 samples; <0.2 mm) were leached with HCl (1:4); then, using the ICP-AES method determinations were made the concentration of Ag, Al, As, Ba, Be, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Ni, P, Pb, S, Sr, Ti, V and Zn. Mercury concentration was measured using the CV-AAS method. The geochemical survey reveals that industrial plants activity are the main sources of anthropogenic pollution of stream sediments in Zagożdżonka river catchment. The strong local anomalies of As, Be, Ca, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Sr, Ti and Zn near Pionki and Kozienice towns can be related to low efficiency of sewage treatment plants in metal removing.

This paper contains XRD, Mössbauer and IR spectroscopy, chemical composition and thermal analysis results for the mineral schwertmannite present in the weathering zone developed in two abandoned sulphide mines in the Sudetes (SW Poland). In Wieściszowice a pyrite deposit was exploited, and in Radzimowice the deposit consisted of polymetallic mineralization with predominant arsenopyrite. In both localizations schwertmannite is developed as dripstones in underground workings and loose sediments precipitating from the acid mine drainage (AMD) waters. Schwertmannite forms tiny, needle-like crystals 2–3 m in size, usually grouped in botryoidal aggregations. The chemical composition of schwertmannite from Wieściszowice is typical for this mineral, and in Radzimowice the mineral contains up to 5.20 wt. % of As2O5. Due to highly developed specific surface and structural features, schwertmannite has the strongest sorption capabilities among the components of ochres, and takes up the largest amounts of arsenate oxyanion fromAMD, as well as considerable amounts of phosphates and heavymetals. About 71-87% of arsenate is sorbed on to the surface of the schwertmannite crystals and may readily be released into solution, 12–30% is bound into the structure of the mineral, and about 1% is an admixture of insoluble ferric arsenates.

Contents of several heavy metals (Cr, Cu, Pb, Zn, As, Cd, Co) in alluvium and soils of flood-plains of Pisia River between Żyrardów and Sochaczew were analysed. Analyses have been carried out in the same points and using analogical procedure twice: in 1994 and 2001. Within this time a significant improvement of the river chemical status took place due to economic changes and reduced sewage pollution discharged in Żyrardów. Distinct decrease of heavy metals contents in alluvium in Żyrardów area and their migration down the Pisia valley were observed. At the same time, elevated heavy metal levels were found in soils of the flood-plains as a result of their migration from the river-bed.
