Nanoscale solid-fluid interaction and amphibole formation in the lithospheric mantle [PDF]
Scientific ReportsNanoscale 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.

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

Assessment of asbestos exposure in Kyrgyzstan through analysis of raw and processed materials, air samples and human lung tissue [PDF]
Scientific ReportsAsbestos 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]
پترولوژی, 2021 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 ...

Confronting Solid‐State Shear Bias: Magmatic Fabric Contribution to Crustal Seismic Anisotropy
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Seismic anisotropy is controlled by aligned rock‐forming minerals, which most studies attribute to solid‐state shear with less consideration for magmatic fabric in plutonic rocks (rigid‐body rotation of crystals in the presence of melt).
