Which of the following is not a type of VHMS deposit ?
Sedex type
Sedex type option is correct.
Volcanic-hosted (or volcanogenic) massive sulphide (VHMS / VMS) deposits are grouped by their volcanic host and tectonic setting: Kuroko-type (bimodal-felsic, island arc, Miocene Japan), Cyprus-type (mafic, ophiolitic mid-ocean ridge), Besshi-type (bimodal-mafic with sediment, back-arc), and Algoma-type (Archaean greenstone-belt rifts). All share a syn-volcanic hydrothermal origin.
Sedex (sedimentary exhalative) deposits — e.g. Mount Isa, Red Dog, Rammelsberg — instead form on the sea floor of intracontinental sedimentary basins from brines vented into anoxic bottom water, with virtually no coeval volcanism. Because they are not tied to volcanic hosts, SEDEX is classified as a separate deposit class, not a VHMS sub-type.

A building is to be founded on a clay stratum. The water table is practically at ground surface level. Laboratory test show that the unit weight of the soil is r = 20 kN/m3 and classify the soil as a firm clay. The uniaxial compressive strength is qu = 150 kN/m2. Suppose that the footing will be square, 2 m wide, and the foundation depth will be 2 m below the ground surface, calculate the ultimate bearing capacity.
In a soil mechanics and engineering project, a stratigraphic column below the horizontal ground level of a wide valley is formed by 3 m of coarse gravels over a 12 m clay deposit. Below the clay is a highly permeable fractured sandstone. The water table in the gravel layer is 0.6 m below ground surface. In the sandstone substratum artesian condition with a piezometric height of 6 m above ground level exist. The gravel layer is very permeable and assumed to be hydrostatic. Determine the pore water pressure distribution.
