    No full text
    Tujuan kajian ini adalah untuk mengenal pasti dan memahami aktiviti-aktivti dalam proses kreatif A. Samad Said berasaskan model proses kreatif Graham Wallas. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah analisis deskriptif berpandukan data kepustakaan dan temu bual. Data dalam bentuk kepustakaan dan temu bual dihurai secara deskriptif berpandukan empat peringkat perkembangan proses kreatif Graham Wallas. Hasil kajian menemukan lima peringkat perkembangan kreatif A. Samad Said, iaitu peringkat pencambahan, pencarian diri, menemui diri, membina keperibadian dan peringkat keunggulan. Selain itu, kajian ini juga dapat menunjukkan koherensi gerak kerja kognitif A. Samad Said dengan karya yang dihasilkan berasaskan lima peringkat perkembangan kreatifnya. Hasil kajian juga menunjukkan, ada beberapa gerak kognitifnya yang terkeluar daripada kerangka model Wallas. Hasil kajian ini menunjukkan, proses kreatif pengarang bergerak secara tersusun dan bertahap dengan gerak kognisinya. Sementara itu, aspek yang ada signifikasi agama khususnya berkait dengan niat pengarang tidak dapat dijelaskan dengan model ini. Berasaskan hasil daripada kajian ini, pengkaji mencadangkan satu penelitian lebih luas terhadap pengarang-pengarang lain penting dilakukan bagi merangka sebuah model proses kreatif berasaskan nilai-nilai Melayu dan Islam yang boleh dijadikan asas memahami proses kreatif pengarang muslim

    The Darzi-Vali bauxite deposit, West-Azarbaidjan Province, Iran: Critical metals distribution and parental affinities

    No full text
    The Darzi-Vali bauxite deposit, located 20 km east of Bukan, in northwestern Iran, occurs as discontinuous layers and lenses within the Upper Permian carbonate rocks of the Ruteh Formation. These layers extend laterally for over â1⁄41 km and vary in thickness ranging from 2 to 17 m. We studied the chemical variations in a selected stratigraphic section throughout the deposit, focusing in particular on numbers of selected special metals that make the deposit of potential economic importance. The critical elements Co, Ga, Nb, Ta, LREEs, and HREEs, along with transition metal Ni, are variously depleted throughout the deposit with respect to Ti, which is assumed to be a less mobile element. Among the critical elements, Cr has only demonstrated conservative behavior. Factor analysis suggests that the factors controlling the distribution of LREEs and HREEs in the ore, which most likely depend on the local composition of groundwater during weathering, are different from those controlling the distribution of other critical elements. Further, the Darzi-Vali ore has ΣREE contents (773 ppm) much higher with respect to other deposits located in NW of Iran, making this deposit worthy of further investigations. As for parental affinity, the Eu anomalies show negligible fluctuations (0.82â0.94) all along the deposit confirming that bauxitization does not affect the effectiveness of this provenance proxy. The average Eu/Eu* value (0.89) of the ore is relatively far afield from that of the average carbonate bedrock (1.3) and close to that of the average mafic protolith (0.94), and similar results are also obtained using the Sm/Nd and Tb/Tb* proxies. Bivariate plots of Eu anomaly versus Sm/Nd and Tb anomalies further support the idea that mafic rocks are probably related to the volcanic activities. These volcanic activities affected the Iranian platform during the Upper Permian as proposed for other bauxite deposits in northwestern Iran. These mafic rocks were the probable precursor of the Darzi-Vali bauxite ore
