Evidence in Archaean Alkali Feldspar Megacrysts for High-Temperature Interaction with Mantle Fluids

open access: yes, 2011
International audienceGrowth and regrowth textures, trace element and oxygen isotope compositions, and water content or species have been studied in alkali feldspars from the late Archaean Closepet igneous bodies. Feldspar crystals grew from mixed magmas

Automated particle analysis of D.B. Cooper's tie

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Automated particle analysis (APA) using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy‐dispersive x‐ray spectrometry (EDS) is a well‐known method in forensics, especially as it is applied to gunshot residue analysis. Here we describe the analysis of particles lifted from D.B. Cooper's tie, which was left on the hijacked plane in 1971.

Strong Visible and Near-Infrared Cathodoluminescence in Alkali Feldspar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this study, cathodoluminescence (CL) spectroscopy at direct current and alternating current under the sample temperature condition of 40-293K using different modulation frequencies is presented for alkali feldspar from the Dartmoor granite (UK). These

Chemical classification of common volcanic rocks based on degree of silica saturation and CaO/K2O ratio

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
Modal classifications of common volcanic rocks are expensive, difficult, or impossible to attain. As a consequence, these rocks are classified using the chemical composition.

Ceramic Production and Geodiversity in Iron Age Iberia: An Archaeometric Study of Pottery from Castrejón de Capote (SW Spain)

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The hillfort of Castrejón de Capote is one of the best investigated settlements of Late Iron Age southwest Iberia. Located in the territory that the classical sources attributed to the Celtici, it was occupied between the early 4th and the 1st centuries bce.

Incidence of Alkali Release in Concrete Dams. Evaluation of Alkalis Releasable by Feldspars [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Alkali release from aggregates can constitute a source of alkalis in concrete exposed to wet environments for long periods of time. Feldspars are one of the minerals that can release alkalis to the concrete with time. The formation of reaction products in the interface with the paste due to the alkali release from sodium and potassium feldspars has ...

Mortars From Punic and Hellenistic–Roman Solunto: Materials, Formulations, and Technology

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents an archaeometric investigation of 18 hydraulic rendering and bedding mortars from Punic and Hellenistic–Roman Solunto (NW Sicily). The research aimed to characterize raw materials, reconstruct manufacturing sequences, and evaluate technological proficiency through mineralogical and petrochemical analyses.

P–T Modelling Constrains the Depth of Emplacement of the Porto Azzurro Pluton and Implies Minor Exhumation Caused by the Zuccale Fault (Island of Elba, Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the pressure of emplacement of granitic intrusions is crucial to understanding the exhumation history of plutons and constraining the tectonic setting of magma emplacement. However, P–T and geochronological constraints from exhumed plutons are often characterized by large uncertainties, especially in shallow crustal settings with

Reaction‐Driven Development of Fine‐Grained Plagioclase Networks Influences the Rheology of the Crust in the Bergen Arcs, Norway

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the middle to lower continental crust, mineral reactions can play a key role in controlling rheological behaviour by generating fine‐grained, mechanically weak domains. In granulite‐facies rocks from Krossøy (Bergen Arcs, Norway), we document how garnet breakdown produced interconnected networks of orthopyroxene + plagioclase ± spinel that ...

Excess 40Ar in Alkali Feldspar and 206,207Pb in Apatite Caused by Fluid-Induced Recrystallisation in a Semi-Closed Environment in Proterozoic (Meta)Granites of the Mt Isa Inlier, NE Australia

open access: yesGeosciences
Interpretation of 40Ar/39Ar dates of alkali feldspar and U-Pb dates of apatite depends on the dominant mechanism of isotopic transport in these minerals, which can be either diffusion or fluid-assisted dissolution-reprecipitation.
