Study of distribution of Pb, Zn and Cu in the bioaccumulative horizon of soils in the municipality of Iaşi and its surrounding areas indicates differences of concentration between urban and rural spaces. In the urbanised area, the bulk of the concentration is Pb, with an average of 60.5 mg/kg, and Zn, with an average of 207.2 mg/kg, both elements being associated with urban technosols. Pb has a larger area distribution, being associated with industrial

We propose to investigate the diamonds from the Kokchetav Massif, northern Kazakhstan, which is the best example of diamond-eclogite facies metamorphism, using cathodoluminescence (CL) techniques. CL spectra measurements of diamonds from garnet-pyroxene-quartz rocks and dolomitic marbles, made at 80 K, revealed peaks at 2.156 eV, 2.463 eV, 3.188 eV and a broad band at 2.72÷2.80 eV. Panchromatic and monochromatic diamond images analyzed by CL reveal
