Alteration of Feldspar‐Rich Rocks on Ancient Mars and Its Possible Link to Ca/Fe‐Rich Carbonates
Abstract Feldspar‐rich rocks have increasingly been discovered on the martian surface. They may have been an important part of the ancient martian crust and may be related to Ca/Fe‐rich carbonates (one of two types of carbonates on Mars and the other being Mg‐rich carbonates), but compared to mafic rocks, their interaction with water on ancient Mars is

Mineral chemistry of clinopyroxene and feldspars in the Neoproterozoic alkaline dykes of the Bangalore District, Karnataka, India [PDF]
The unmetamorphosed Neoproterozoic dykes of the continental intraplate alkaline magmatism studied in Southern Karnataka consist of analcime-tinguaites, tinguaites, bostonites and solvsbergites.

ABSTRACT Since 2000, archaeological excavations have brought to light the sanctuary of Athena in Castro (Apulia, Italy), including terracotta roofs dated between the 6th and 4th centuries bce. Based on their morphological and stylistic features, it is suggested that the terracotta items were manufactured in the Greek colony of Taras (modern Taranto ...

Abstract Many intraplate volcanic chains are explained as hotspot trails formed by plate motion over mantle plumes, yet some deviate from this model. The Rodrigues Ridge, a volcanic lineament extending eastward from the Réunion hotspot track toward the Central Indian Ridge (CIR), is one such case.

X‐ray computed tomography study of terrestrial analog cores in preparation for Mars sample return
Abstract Mars Sample Return (MSR) is expected to transform planetary science by providing unprecedented access to pristine Martian material. Initial characterization in the sample receiving facility (SRF) will rely on nondestructive techniques such as X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) to document the condition, distribution, and internal features of ...

This paper discusses a new model concerning the precipitation mechanismand significance of anhydrite cement in tight sandstone. Anhydrite cement ismainly formed by the dissolution and reprecipitation of early‐diageneticcalcite cements, feldspars and volcanic rock fragments at the mesodiageneticstage.

Synthesis and characterization of zeolite obtained from Toraja natural montmorillonite [PDF]
Zeolites are an alternative material for treating heavy metal-containing waste. Synthetic zeolites exhibit excellent purity and particle size uniformity, which has led many researchers to explore their synthesis, including the use of natural minerals ...
