Mechanical property variation mechanisms of granite subjected to real‐time high temperatures and subsequent cooling treatment

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates the coupled thermo‐mechanical behavior of granite during heating and cooling through a combination of laboratory tests and finite element analysis. The thermal conductivity, mineral composition, mass loss rate, micro‐crack observation, and thermal fracture characteristics of granite under various temperature conditions are ...

An Investigation on the Composition of Biotite from Mashhad Granitoids, NE Iran [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2010
Compositions of biotite from three different rock types of Mashhad granitoids, i.e., granodiorite, monzogranite and leucogranite in NE of Iran have been documented by electron microprobe and wet chemistry for Fe3+ and Fe2+.

Surfactant Effects on Structure and Mechanical Properties of Ultrahigh-Molecular-Weight Polyethylene/Layered Silicate Composites

open access: yesMolecules, 2017
In this study, the reinforcement of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) with biotite was investigated. The biotite filler was mechanically activated with different dry surfactants to improve its compatibility with UHMWPE and decrease ...

Detrital zircon SHRIMP U-Pb age study of the Cordillera Darwin Metamorphic Complex of Tierra del Fuego : sedimentary sources and implications for the evolution of the Pacific margin of Gondwana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Cordillera Darwin Metamorphic Complex in the southernmost Andes includes a basement of probable Palaeozoic age, a mid-Jurassic and younger volcano-sedimentary cover, and a suite of Jurassic granites, all of which were jointly metamorphosed during the

Exploring wave propagation behaviors in rock: A grain‐based perspective on mineral structures

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates wave propagation in rock at the grain scale using a grain‐based model, revealing that mineral elastic modulus significantly influences wave attenuation while grain size and distribution have limited effects. A novel peak particle velocity attenuation prediction model is proposed and validated for grain‐scale wave propagation ...

Mineral Chemistry of Chlorite Replacing Biotite from Granitic Rocks of the Canadian Appalachians [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2009
Chlorite flakes, as a product of alteration of biotite, the dominant ferromagnesian mineral in the Paleozoic granitic rocks of the Canadian Appalachians, have been analyzed by electron microprobe for major elements and by 57Fe M?ssbauer spectroscopy for ...

Evidence for Miocene subduction beneath the Alboran Sea (Western Mediterranean) from 40Ar/39Ar age dating and the geochemistry of volcanic rocks from holes 977A and 978A [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Volcanic pebbles in gravels from Sites 977 and 978 in the Alboran Sea (western Mediterranean) were dated (using the 40Ar/ 39Ar single-crystal laser technique) and analyzed for their major- and trace-element compositions (determined by X-ray ...

U-Pn geochronology of deformed metagranites in central Sutherland, Scotland: evidence for widespread late Silurian metamorphism and ductile deformation of the Moine Supergroup during the Caledonian orogeny [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Within the Caledonides of central Sutherland, Scotland, the Neoproterozoic metasedimentary rocks of the Moine Supergroup record NW-directed D2 ductile thrusting and nappe assembly, accompanied by widespread tight-to-isoclinal folding and amphibolite ...

Neoarchean Arc Magmatism and Crust Recycling in the Northern Marginal Zone of the Limpopo Complex, Zimbabwe: New Insights From Zircon U‐Pb‐Hf Isotopes of a Charnockite Suite

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Charnockites with 2691–2607 Ma magmatic ages from the NMZ show arc‐magmatic geochemical signatures. They correspond to the lower‐crustal equivalent of the Chilimanzi Suite Granite in the Zimbabwe Craton. Lu‐Hf isotopic data of magmatic zircons show negative εHf(t) values (−11.18 to −2.20) with TDMC ages of 3699–3158 Ma, suggesting their protolith ...

Geological characteristics of neoproterozoic motianling granitic pluton hosting uranium mineralization in North Guangxi, China: Insights from biotite chemistry

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
The Motianling pluton represents a characteristic U-bearing granite pluton in South China. Biotite serves as an indicator for the mineralization of metals such as Cu, Sn, and W in granite. Previous studies have extensively investigated the U metallogenic
