A Machine‐Learning Classification for Torlesse Composite Terrane Petrofacies and its Application to Sediment Provenance

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
The Torlesse Composite Terrane (TCT) forms many of the mountain ranges in Aotearoa New Zealand and has provided enormous quantities of coarse‐grained sediment to Te Riu‐a‐Maui/Zealandia's basins since the mid‐Cretaceous. Tracing the provenance of these sediments to certain regions of the TCT can indirectly reconstruct exhumation patterns associated ...

Geochemical and Isotopic Constraints on Long‐Lived Source Enrichment and Mantle Evolution in Paleoproterozoic Cratonic Lamprophyres

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The cratonic lithospheric mantle records complex metasomatic processes and is frequently tapped by alkaline magmatism, offering a unique opportunity to trace the progressive evolution of the mantle. In the present contribution, we investigate a newly identified calc‐alkaline lamprophyre field from the Neoarchean Jonnagiri Schist Belt, Eastern ...

Middle Cretaceous Andean‐Type Arc Evolution in the Sanandaj–Sirjan Zone (Shalair Valley), Iraq: New Geochronological and Geochemical Constraints

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The middle Cretaceous granitoid plutons of the Shalair Valley, situated in northeastern Iraq, constitute a principal magmatic component of the Sanandaj–Sirjan Zone within the northwestern segment of the Zagros Orogenic Belt. Among these plutons, the equigranular Aulan body (AG) and the porphyritic Laladar body (LG) were crystallized at 111.0 ±

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

RBT 04133: a new, unusual carbonaceous chondrite

, 2009
Introduction: The study of primitive carbonaceous chondrites is an important means of understanding the conditions of the early Solar System. We report new data on the Antarctic find RBT 04133, originally classified as a CR2 carbonaceous chondrite ...

Laser Irradiation of Carbonaceous Chondrite Simulants: Space-weathering Implications for C-complex Asteroids

The Planetary Science Journal
Surfaces of carbonaceous asteroids (C-complex) have shown diverse, contrasting spectral variations, which may be related to space weathering. We performed laser irradiation experiments on CI and CM simulant material under vacuum to mimic the spectral ...

Syn‐ to Post‐Collisional Tectonic History of the Paleo‐Tethyan Orogenic Belt: Insights From Triassic Igneous Rocks in the North–Central Tibetan Plateau, China

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The closure of the Paleo‐Tethys Ocean was one of the most important global geological events which formed the framework of the East Asian continent during the early Mesozoic. The Longmu Co‐Shuanghu suture zone is considered to record closure of the main basin of the Paleo‐Tethys Ocean.

The complex exposure history of the Jiddat al Harasis 073 L-chondrite shower

, 2008
We measured the concentrations and isotopic compositions of He, Ne, and Ar in 29 bulk samples from 11 different strewn field fragments of the large Jiddat al Harasis (JaH) 073 L6 chondrite shower, including 7 samples from known locations within the main ...

Peixe Zircon as a Quality Control Reference Material in U‐Pb Geochronology by LA‐ICP‐MS

Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 369-389, June 2026.
Key Points Peixe#0 zircon was characterised for U‐Pb geochronology using CA‐ID‐TIMS, SIMS and a long‐term LA‐ICP‐MS data set. The consistent results establish Peixe#0 as a reference material for U‐Pb quality control. Trace element heterogeneity requires careful, CL‐guided spot selection.
