Nanoscale solid-fluid interaction and amphibole formation in the lithospheric mantle [PDF]
Nanoscale amphibole nucleation and growth in the Earth’s mantle is poorly understood despite its important role in the evolution and stability of the lithosphere, along with its influence on the coexisting fluid composition.

Dislocation Creep of Olivine and Amphibole in Amphibole Peridotites from Åheim, Norway
Amphibole peridotite samples from Åheim, Norway, were analyzed to understand the deformation mechanism and microstructural evolution of olivine and amphibole through the Scandian Orogeny and subsequent exhumation process. Three Åheim amphibole peridotite

Amphibole reaction rims record shear during magma ascent [PDF]
Mineral reaction textures are fundamental archives of geological change. Amphibole reaction rims are among the most widely used to reconstruct pre-eruptive magmatic conditions, traditionally interpreted through changes in pressure, temperature and melt ...

Amphibole fractionation during the early evolution of arc magmas has been widely inferred on the basis of distinctive geochemical fingerprints of the evolved melts, although amphibole is rarely found as a major mineral phase in arc volcanic rocks, so ...

Comparison of various methodological approaches to model asbestos thresholds for mesothelioma [PDF]
BackgroundThere is evidence to support several modes of action (MoAs), and particularly non-genotoxic MoAs, for mesothelioma induced by asbestiform elongate mineral particles (EMPs).

Application of artificial intelligence in the analysis of asbestos fibers [PDF]
Automated asbestos fiber detection and identification has been the goal of asbestos microscopists for decades. The advent of inexpensive memory, fast digital processing, machine learning, and microscope automation provide the enabling platform for ...

Assessment of asbestos exposure in Kyrgyzstan through analysis of raw and processed materials, air samples and human lung tissue [PDF]
Asbestos still represents a major public health problem on a global scale. In Central Asia chrysotile is still mined and used, claiming that it is safer with respect to amphibole asbestos within certain concentrations.

Investigation of the formation processes in the mafic enclaves of Naqadeh plutonic rocks assemblage by zircon U-Pb dating, Sr-Nd isotopic ratios, and amphibole composition [PDF]
Naqadeh intrusive pluton is composed of two distinct sections of felsic (40 Ma age) and mafic (99 Ma age) rocks. The granitoid rocks of Naqadeh pluton have different types of mafic enclaves, including mafic microgranular enclaves (MME) and quartz ...
