가사도 지역 금은광상은 후기 백악기 화산활동에 의해 형성된 화산쇄설암을 모암으로 하여 판상(sheeted) 및 망상(stockwork) 석영맥으로 산출되며, 빗살, 호상 및 깃털조직 등을 보이고 있다 금은광화작용과 관련된 열수변질대는 광물 조합에 따라 고점토대(딕카이트-명반석-석영), 점토대(딕카이트-석영), 견운모대(석영-견운모-황철석) 및 프로필리틱대(녹니석-탄산염광물-석 영-장석-휘석)로 구분된다 고점토대는 등대맥 최상부인 노인봉을 중심으로 분포하고 있으며, 그 외각부에서 견운모대 및 프로필리틱대가 산출되고 있다. 석영맥은 석영, 옥수질석영, 아듈라리아, 탄산염광물등의 맥석광물과 함께 미립의 황철석, 섬아연석, 황동석, 방연석, 함은광물, 에렉트럼 등 광석광물로 구성되며, 에렉트럼의 금함량은 14.6~53.7 atomic % Au이다. 유체포유물 및 에렉트럼-섬아연석 지질온도계로부터 추정된 광화작용 온도는 158℃~285℃범위로 전형적인 천열수광응의 온도범위를 보이고 있으며, 산소.수소 안정동위원소 연구 결과(δ18 /Owater =-10.1~8.0‰, δD=-68~64‰) 동위원소 교환이 적게 진행된 천수로부터 유래된 광화유체로 추정된다. 이러한 변질대의 분포특성, 열수유체의 기원 및 생성환경을 종합해 볼 때, 현재 지표에 노출된 가사도 지역의 광화대는 온천형 저유황성 천열수 금은광상의 최상부에 해당하는 것으로 추정된다.

The applicability of resistivity cone for contaminant investigation in farm land was examined in laboratory and in-situ. To verify the resistivity variations in sand with contaminants, laboratory experiment used soil resistivity test box was performed. Heavy metal and others ions were appeared steep variations in low concentration. Pilot test results were the same as laboratory test results. In the in-situ test used resistivity cone, resistivities of waste landfill layer were low than the common soil layers and resistivities had been difference with concentration of contaminant components. Therefore contaminant investigation in farm land using resistivity cone was expected very effective.

Nowadays natural resources on shore have been almost exhausted all over the world and mankind is beginning searching for unexploited resources on the bed of deep-sea floor. In exploring mineral resources and etc. in the ground of sea-bed, a sumbersible craft is one of the most important tools. These days, the stage of the technique of building and operating an exploring submersible craft is almost alike that of building and operating an airplane in the first years of the nineteen-twenties. At the present time, the problems arising in building and operating a submersible craft can be divided into four parts as follows; 1. How to build a hull that can bear high pressure under deep sea level. 2. How to decide the necessary facilities to be put on it. 3. How to decide the scope of stabilities and maneuvering characteristics of it. 4. On what sea conditions, the devices of launching and recovering it should be designed on the mother-ship. In this paper treating one of the third problems the author made a mathematic formula that can be useful in deciding the scope of dynamic course stability on the vertical plane and actually calculated the onset speed of pitch instability of an exploring craft. With the above mentioned calculations the author demonstrated that the value of Zg and the speed of a submerged craft are the most important factors in decideing the scope of dynamic stability on the vertical plane.
