Gold in pyrite revisited: insights into remobilization during deformation using electron backscatter diffraction and LA-ICP-MS
Pascal Ouiya, Didier Béziat, Stefano Salvi, German Velásquez, Séta Naba, Arnaud Proietti
In a gold deposit near Nassara, southern Burkina Faso, gold occurs closely associated with pyrite within a network of veins hosted by metavolcanic and metasedimentary rocks. Using SEM and LA-ICP-MS analyses, we identified three generations of pyrite with distinct roles in gold mineralization. Pyrite 1 (Py1) formed early during mineralization,(...)

HIDDEN RESISTANCE IN STEVEN HAHN’S A NATION UNDER OUR FEET
1) Harrouna Malgouri; 2) Jean Dao
This article analyzes Steven Hahn’s A Nation Under Our Feet (2004) using the theory of hidden resistance. From the slavery era to the Great Migration, African Americans worked out covert strategies to circumvent the economic and socio-political hardships of life in Southern society. Hahn’s work highlights communication networks and rumors as i(...)

Contraintes coloniales en Haute-Volta / Haute-Côte d’Ivoire et migrations de fuite en Gold Coast britannique
OUEDRAOGO Serge Noël
La mise en oeuvre du colonialisme européen en Afrique a conduit à l’imposition de contraintes multiformes aux
peuples dominés. Les servitudes coloniales en Haute-Volta française ont été à l’origine de la fuite massive de
populations vers la Gold Coast anglaise. Durant la période 1932-1947, alors que la colonie de Haute-Volta était
supprimée(...)

Inégalités environnementales en Afrique de l’Ouest
Gabin Korbeogo, Jessie K. Luna
Cet article analyse les inégalités environnementales en Afrique, plus particulièrement en Afrique de l’Ouest et au Burkina Faso. L’environnementalisme dominant tend à occulter les causes historiques, sociales, politiques et économiques de la dégradation environnementale et les inégalités qu’elle engendre. Nous retraçons d’abord les inégalités(...)

Prospection for potential new non-ribosomal peptide gene clusters in Bacillus genus isolated from fermented foods and soil through genome mining
Blaise Waongo, L. Ndayishimiye, F. Tapsoba, Wend-Soo Abel Zongo, Jinquan Li, A. Savadogo
Experimental studies, though often very costly, lead to the discovery of known antimicrobial products. Yet, pathogenic microorganisms are proving increasingly resistant to pre-existing antimicrobial molecules, and this is a cause for worldwide concern. Therefore, it is necessary to search for new molecules that could serve as alternatives in t(...)
