Heat and Tectonics of the Canadian Cordillera From the Seismically Constrained Inversion of Gravity Data

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract An updated approach to seismically constrained modeling of gravity data reveals two broad, NW‐trending low‐density zones in the mantle lithosphere beneath the Canadian Cordillera. The low‐density zones coincide with a shallow lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary (LAB), a shallow Curie‐point depth, and the location of Quaternary volcanoes.

Mineral reconnaissance at the Highland boundary with special reference to the Loch Lomond and Aberfoyle areas [PDF]

, 1983
Serpentinite bodies at the Highland Boundary in the Loch Lomond and Aberfoyle areas are extensively altered to magnesite-quartz and ferroan-dolomite-quartz rocks. Silicification was probably initiated before conversion to carbonate.

Interplay Between Mechanical and Petrochemical Models on the Fluid Extraction From Subduction Zones

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 2, Page 85-111, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The breakdown of hydrous minerals during subduction results in a densification of the rocks, producing volume changes that can trigger fluid pressure fluctuations and hydrofracturing. These volume changes are controlled by the Clapeyron slope of the reaction and are quantified here using a macroscopic framework that integrates a zero ...

Volatile (Li, B, F and Cl) mobility during amphibole breakdown in subduction zones

, 2016
Amphiboles are ubiquitous minerals in the altered oceanic crust. During subduction, their breakdown is governed by continuous reactions up to eclogitic facies conditions.

High P‐T Sound Velocities of Amphiboles: Implications for Low‐Velocity Anomalies in Metasomatized Upper Mantle

Geophysical Research Letters
Metasomatized mantle xenoliths containing hydrous minerals, such as amphiboles, serpentine, and phlogopite, likely represent the potential mineralogical compositions of the metasomatized upper mantle, where low seismic velocities are commonly observed ...

Chemical Discrimination of Rutile From Different Metamorphic Source Rocks: Dealing With Hierarchical Data Structures in Random Forest Classification

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 2, Page 112-137, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Rutile provides a wealth of petrochronological information in metamorphic geology and due to its high stability during processes of the sedimentary cycle, rutile takes a special position in sedimentary provenance analysis. Besides being one of the classical minerals datable using the U–Pb system, rutile incorporates a broad range of trace ...

Poikilitic hornblende pyroxenite in the southern end of the Abukuma Mountains, Northeast Japan, as result of adakitic magmatism

Frontiers in Geochemistry
Amphibole plays a pivotal role in mediating the flux of volatiles and partial melting that ultimately contribute to arc magmatism. The influence of amphibole from the lower crust to the upper mantle remains unclear due to limited opportunities for ...
