Abstract Syros island preserves pristine high‐pressure metamorphic rocks and provides invaluable insight into subduction zone processes. Contrasting views on the structural history impede placing the island in a clear tectonic framework, limiting the broader impact of preserved information.

Abstract Capillary pressure‐saturation relationships are crucial for geo‐energy recovery, and increasingly, for environmental applications. However, for reservoir‐relevant pressure and temperature conditions, only limited data sets are available from special core analysis in laboratory (SCAL) studies.

New Terrestrial Native Iron Discovered on Earth's Surface
Abstract Native iron is a major common mineral in lunar samples and meteorites but rarely occurs on Earth's surface, as its stability requires highly reducing conditions with very low oxygen fugacity. To date, native iron has mainly been found in basalts, ophiolites, and deep hydrothermal systems.

Abstract Fire in drylands is commonly associated with enhanced aeolian erosion due to the abrupt loss of vegetation cover. However, the relative contributions of fire‐induced mineralogical degradation of soils, seasonal wind forcing and surface armoring to post‐fire wind erosion remain poorly constrained.

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

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 ...

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

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 ...

Revisiting the Hummeln structure, Sweden—A shallow marine Cambrian impact structure
Abstract Hummeln is a simple impact structure located in south‐eastern Sweden. It is approximately 1.2 km in diameter and almost completely covered by a lake. Here, we present the first detailed investigation of impactites and mapping of the 164.25 m deep drill core Hummeln‐1 with a focus on impact metamorphism and the impact process.
