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

Modal classifications of common volcanic rocks are expensive, difficult, or impossible to attain. As a consequence, these rocks are classified using the chemical composition.

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]
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
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.

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

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 ...

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.
