Rapid Slab Rollback Drives Early Cretaceous Back‐Arc Extension in NE China: Implication for Crustal Growth and Episodic Porphyry Mineralization

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The subduction of the Paleo‐Pacific Plate beneath the NE Asian continental margin induced extensive magmatism, providing an excellent opportunity to investigate the interplay between plate dynamics, arc magmatism, continental crust formation, and porphyry mineralization.

Gravity and Magnetic Separation for Concentrating Critical Raw Materials from Granite Quarry Waste: A Case Study from Buddusò (Sardinia, Italy)

Resources
The Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA), enacted by the European Union (EU) in May 2024, represents a strategic framework that aims to address the growing demand for critical raw materials (CRMs) and reduce dependency on non-EU sources.

The Paleo‐Tethys Suture Zone in the Afghan Hindu Kush‒Pamir: Geo‐Thermochronology, Geochemistry, Tectonics

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract In the Afghan Hindu Kush, the 223–209 Ma (≤800°C) Salang batholith is part of the Silk‐Road magmatic arc that was built on ∼40‐km‐thick Turan‐Karakum block continental crust. The batholith constitutes the hanging wall of the Herat‐Panjshir‐Badakhshan—the Paleo‐Tethys—suture zone, vestige of the subducted Paleozoic‐early Mesozoic Paleo‐Tethys ...

Assessing Pb Isotopic Equilibrium Between Apatite and K‐Feldspar

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Quantifying common Pb, the non‐radiogenic Pb present in a mineral independent of in situ U decay, is essential for obtaining accurate U–Pb ages in common Pb‐bearing minerals such as apatite. However, constraining the amount and composition of common Pb, as well as the timing of its entrapment, remains a persistent challenge.

P‐T‐t‐d Evolution of Low‐Grade Metamorphic Xenotime, Eastern Alps (Austria)

Terra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 65-76, February 2026.
ABSTRACT In situ LA‐ICP‐MS U‐Pb dating of xenotime was used to establish the age of low‐grade metamorphism in Permian metasediments of the Austroalpine Unit (Eastern Alps, Austria). Complexly zoned xenotime in chloritoid‐bearing metasedimentary samples possesses distinct MREE‐rich domains. In the eastern sample, this domain yielded a date of c. 135 Ma,

Rare-earth and rare-metal mineralization in late granite of Syrostan massif (Southern Urals)

Литосфера, 2015
The article provides a complete list of Syrostan massif minerals, which includes 47 mineral species. It is shown that the rare-metal and rare-earth mineralization is confined to the late vein facies - granite dykes and pegmatites.

Allanite in Mantle Eclogite Xenoliths

Journal of Petrology
Abstract Rare-Earth Elements (REE) are key geochemical tracers of crust–mantle differentiation, but there are few direct data on REE-rich minerals in mantle rocks. Here, we report the combined petrography and comprehensive chemical and isotopic characterization of three coesite- and kyanite-bearing eclogite xenoliths from the Udachnaya ...

Subduction and Extrusion of an Ultra‐High Pressure Oceanic Plate Interface (Lower Shear Zone, Monviso Massif, Western Alps)

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The Lower Shear Zone (LSZ) of the Monviso Massif (Western Alps) constitutes a block‐in‐matrix remnant of the subduction plate interface, now tectonically emplaced into the Western Alpine orogenic belt. Here, we combine observations from cartographic to microscopic scales, focusing on garnet‐bearing lithologies in both the mafic blocks and the ...

Ultrahigh‐Temperature Metamorphism and Near‐Isobaric Cooling of Garnet‐Orthopyroxene Granulite Xenoliths in the Sancheong Anorthosite, Yeongnam Massif, Korea

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 1, Page 20-46, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Elevated heat flow associated with mafic magmatism in accretionary orogens has often been proposed as a driving mechanism for (ultra)high‐temperature (UHT) metamorphism and anatexis. The Sancheong–Hadong complex, located in the southern Yeongnam Massif, Korea, consists of a ca.

REE-bearing minerals in the Rapakavi Grante, Southern Finland

Open Geosciences, 2015
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 ...
