Assessment and Correction of Non‐Linearity Effects for In Situ Rb‐Sr Geochronology Applied to High 87Rb/86Sr Mica

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 601-624, September 2026.
Key Points Measurement of 86Sr at count rates < 1500 cps can result in statistical bias. Non‐linear signals in analogue detection mode (e.g., Rb) present a challenge for accurately dating high 87Rb/86Sr mica (> 1000). Accounting for these considerations, high 87Rb/86Sr mica are dated here with accuracies of ∼ 1%.

Dynamic multifractal characteristics and damage evolution of granite pegmatite with varying biotite content based on acoustic emission monitoring

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mining Science and Technology
Biotite content critically influences rock mechanical behavior and threatens underground engineering stability. Uniaxial compression tests with acoustic emission (AE) monitoring were conducted on granite pegmatite samples having varying biotite content ...

Resolving Micrometre‐Scale Zircon Growth in Silicic Systems by 7 μm LA‐MC‐ICP‐MS U‐Pb Dating: Linking Petrology and Geochronology in Silicic Volcanic and Granitic Rocks from Victoria, Australia

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 625-647, September 2026.
Key Points 7 μm spot‐diameter LA‐MC‐ICP‐MS analyses yield accurate zircon U‐Pb ages. 1013 Ω amplifier resistors improve low‐signal Pb measurements. Saturn correction protocols minimise down‐hole fractionation effects. We present a systematic evaluation of high spatial‐resolution zircon U‐Pb dating using a Thermo Scientific Neoma multi‐collector ICP‐MS ...

(Ultra)high‐Pressure Metamorphism in Sedimentary Versus Basaltic Rocks: Insights From a Variscan Mélange in the South Carpathians

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 8, Page 585-610, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Reconstructing the pressure–temperature–time (P–T–t) evolution of (ultra)high‐pressure rocks is essential for constraining subduction and collisional dynamics. Subduction zones are often investigated using basic eclogites, whereas nonbasic high‐pressure rocks remain comparatively understudied, potentially hindering a comprehensive ...

Metamorphic Reactivity Influences Amphibole Creep Behaviour

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 8, Page 611-632, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The rheological behaviour of solid‐solution minerals may play an important role in determining how metamorphic crust accommodates deformation. Whether or not a mineral's deformation is diffusion or dislocation‐mediated depends on a range of extrinsic variables such as stress, strain rate and temperature, as well as intrinsic variables such as ...

Corundum Discovered by SuperCam and the Perseverance Rover at Jezero Crater, Mars

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Mars is primarily composed of mafic mineral assemblages and their alteration products, but small, scattered rocks strewn across the landscape offer clues to greater petrological diversity. While traversing the Jezero crater rim, the Perseverance rover encountered several plagioclase‐rich light‐toned float rocks.

Biotite as a petrogenetic discriminator in the polymetamorphosed rocks: A case study from the Champaner supracrustal rocks, Western India

open access: yesGeosystems and Geoenvironment
The mineral chemistry of Fe-Mg biotite has served as an aid to the petrogenesis of igneous rocks, especially for identifying the parent magma compositions. Though the interpretation of igneous and metamorphic processes utilizing biotite mineral chemistry
