Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (1): sazo

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

pojas bogat živom i rudama željeza

Radi se o geološkom pojasu, s bogatim naslagama žive i ruda željeza (fero od lat. ferrum željezo).Taj pojas obuhvaća npr. Mediteran, zatim postoji azijsko pacifički koji obuhvaća istočnu obalu Australije itd. ne znam postoji li specifični izraz za ovo ja ga na webu za hrvtaski nisam pronašla iako ima masa linkova za mercuriferous na engleskom i drugim jezicima.

to su dakle prirodna nalazišta, zalihe žive odakle živa odlazi u atmosferu i vodu:

Npr:

Siberia contains large areas of mercuriferous belts; natural deposits that emit mercury into the atmosphere and water.

neutral Mira Stepanovic : bogat živom; npr. aluminiferous - bearing aluminum; from the Latin ferre and gerere, both meaning 'to bear' http://www.answers.com/topic/ferous-1

Hvala Mira1To me mučilo i iznendaila sam kako je brzo kolegica prihvatila odgovor, pobrinut ću se da se ispravno unese u KOG
neutral Kristina Kolic : Pojas je ovdje bogat jedino živom. Kada je Vaš odgovor već odabran, onda unesite sami ispravan pojam u glosar ;-)
