P–T Modelling Constrains the Depth of Emplacement of the Porto Azzurro Pluton and Implies Minor Exhumation Caused by the Zuccale Fault (Island of Elba, Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the pressure of emplacement of granitic intrusions is crucial to understanding the exhumation history of plutons and constraining the tectonic setting of magma emplacement. However, P–T and geochronological constraints from exhumed plutons are often characterized by large uncertainties, especially in shallow crustal settings with

Reaction‐Driven Development of Fine‐Grained Plagioclase Networks Influences the Rheology of the Crust in the Bergen Arcs, Norway

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the middle to lower continental crust, mineral reactions can play a key role in controlling rheological behaviour by generating fine‐grained, mechanically weak domains. In granulite‐facies rocks from Krossøy (Bergen Arcs, Norway), we document how garnet breakdown produced interconnected networks of orthopyroxene + plagioclase ± spinel that ...

Analysis of equilibrium in garnet-biotite-sillimanite gneisses from quebec

open access: yes, 1964
An analysis is presented of equilibrium in six specimens of garnet-biotite-sillimanite-plagioclase-potash feldspar-quartz ... gneiss from a metamorphic terrain in south-western Quebec.A nearly uniform Ti content of biotite may be accounted for by an ...

Vertical profiling of shock attenuation at the Rochechouart impact structure, France

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Rochechouart, south‐west France, is a complex impact structure. Here, we present the first report of shock barometry of quartz from what are likely parautochthonous basement units at depth, based on samples from the 2017 C.I.R.I.R drilling campaign. The crystallographic orientations of 725 sets of PDFs in 512 quartz grains in samples from four

Enhancing Europium Adsorption Effect of Fe on Several Geological Materials by Applying XANES, EXAFS, and Wavelet Transform Techniques

open access: yesToxics
This study conducted adsorption experiments using Europium (Eu(III)) on geological materials collected from Taiwan. Batch tests on argillite, basalt, granite, and biotite showed that argillite and basalt exhibited strong adsorption reactions with Eu.

Confirmation of the impact origin of the Late Ordovician Tvären impact structure (southeast Sweden) and emplacement of impactites in a marine setting

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Tvären structure in southeastern Sweden has been listed as a confirmed marine‐target impact structure for decades. However, to date, no measurements and/or indexed data of planar deformation features in quartz grains from the structure have been published or any other unequivocal evidence of impact.

Occurrence of Prehnite, Pumpellyite and Garnet in Biotite from Granitic Rocks of the Canadian Appalachians: A Mineral Chemistry Study Using Electron Microprobe [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2011
A particular feature of biotite grains from some of the Canadian Appalachian granitic rocks is the presence of lenses of Ca-Al silicates developed along cleavage planes. These from the more to less common are prehnite, pumpellyite and grandite garnet, an

Polymict melt‐bearing breccia dikes in the Morokweng impact structure formed by slip‐induced mechanical mixing of pseudotachylite and cataclasite along large‐displacement impact faults

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract A core drilled through shocked and faulted Archean granitoid gneisses and dolerites in the eroded peak ring of the 70–80 km diameter Morokweng impact structure intersects multiple centimeter‐ to meter‐wide clastic‐matrix breccias containing a polymict clast population of lithic and mineral clasts and altered, millimeter‐ to centimeter ‐size ...
