ABSTRACT Although central Brazil hosts significant ion‐adsorption rare earth element (REE) deposits associated with A‐type granites, their coeval volcanic counterparts have been largely overlooked as exploration targets. This study demonstrates that acidic metavolcanic rocks of the Araí Group share strong radiometric, geochemical and mineralogical ...

Identification of allanite (Ce, Ca, Y)2(Al, Fe3+)3(SiO4)3OH found in marble from Chillagoe, Queensland using Raman spectroscopy [PDF]
Samples of marble from Chillagoe, North Queensland have been analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and Raman spectroscopy. Chemical analyses provide evidence for the presence of minerals other than limestone and calcite in the marble, including silicate minerals.

Abstract Whole‐rock geochemical data from two drill cores obtained through the ICDP (International Continental Scientific Drilling Program) funded Drilling the Ivrea‐Verbano Zone (IVZ) (DIVE) project: 5071_1_B (Ornavasso) and 5071_1_A (Megolo), provide new insights into the composition of the lower continental crust (LCC) in the IVZ. Borehole 5071_1_B (

ABSTRACT Zircon is a common, highly refractory accessory mineral found in sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks that forms through various processes (e.g., magmatic, hydrothermal, metamorphic growth and recrystallization). Trace element compositions of detrital zircon have been widely applied to understanding tectonic processes and continental ...

Apatite as a Proxy for Reconstructing Magma Mixing Histories in Granitoids
Abstract Apatite is a common accessory mineral in granites and mafic microgranular enclaves (MMEs), and its textural and compositional characteristics can record dynamic magmatic evolution processes. Apatites from the Early Cretaceous Sanguliu granite and its MMEs in the Liaodong Peninsula exhibit pronounced compositional heterogeneities. In this study,

OXIDES AND SILICATES OF RARE AND RARE-EARTH ELEMENTS IN ALKALINE ROCKS OF THE ILMENOGORSKY BLOCK (SOUTHERN URALS) [PDF]
A significant part of the REE and rare elements in the rocks of the Ilmenogorsky block forms its own minerals. Oxides and silicates of rare and rare-earth elements in alkaline rocks of Ilmenogorsky block (Southern Urals) include oxynatropyrochlore ...

REE-bearing minerals in the Rapakavi Grante, Southern Finland
The studied rock samples belong to the classic1615–1645 Ma Wiborg Rapakivi granite terrane of southeasternFinland. Geochemical studies show that the rapakivigranites and associated rocks form metaluminousto peraluminous A-type granites and plot in the ...

U-Th-rich zircon, thorite and allanite-(Ce) as main carriers of radioactivity in the highly radioactive ultrapotassic melasyenite porphyry from the Šumava Mts., Moldanubian Zone, Czech Republic [PDF]
*Corresponding author A melasyenite porphyry from the vicinity of Kasperske Hory (the Sumava Mts., Moldanubian Zone) shows a high natural radioactivity (K = 4.4–6.1 wt. %, eU = 15–24 ppm, eTh = 38–49 ppm). The most important carriers of U and Th are zircon, thorite, allanite-(Ce) and scarce monazite. Most of the zircon and thorite grains are altered by
