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

open access: yesTectonics, 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

open access: yesGeochemistry, 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.

Allanite U–Pb step-leaching ages of metapelites in the Imjingang belt, central Korea

open access: yesJournal of Analytical Science and Technology
Background Allanite is a LREE-rich epidote-group mineral, and a potential chronometer for the greenschist-facies metamorphism. However, owing to the metamict nature of allanite, it is extremely difficult to secure sufficient amounts of mineral separates ...

REE-bearing minerals in the Rapakavi Grante, Southern Finland

open access: yesOpen 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 ...

Rapid magma ascent and formation of the Águas Belas-Canindé granitic batholith, NE Brazil: evidence of epidote dissolution and thermobarometry

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Geology, 2020
Mineral chemistry and intensive parameter estimates for the Major Isidoro (626 Ma) and Monteirópolis (627 Ma) magmatic epidote-bearing granitic plutons, emplaced along the Jacaré dos Homens transpressional shear zone (JHSZ), Borborema Province, are ...

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

open access: yesTerra 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,

Allanite behaviour during incipient melting in the southern Central Alps

open access: yes, 2012
The response of allanite to incipient melting was investigated in migmatites from the Tertiary Barrovian-type sequence of the Central Alps (southern Switzerland, northern Italy).

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

open access: yesTectonics, 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 ...

Rare earth element evolution and migration in plagiogranites: a record preserved in epidote and allanite of the Troodos ophiolite

open access: yes, 2015
Plagiogranites from the Troodos ophiolite in Cyprus are occasionally epidotised, either partially or completely. Epidotisation phenomena include replacement of pre-existing minerals and filling of miarolitic cavities.

CONCENTRIC-ZONAL AGGREGATE OF REE MINERALS IN FELDSPAR PEGMATITE OF THE VISHNEVYE MOUNTAINS, SOUTH URALS [PDF]

open access: yesМинералогия, 2019
A concentric-zonal texture of mineral aggregate observed in alkali pegmatite of the Vishnevye Mountains was formed as a result of melt-fluid crystallization in a closed system.
