Petrogenetic processes in the ultramafic, alkaline and carbonatitic magmatism in the Kola Alkaline Province: a review [PDF]
Igneous rocks of the Devonian Kola Alkaline Carbonatite Province (KACP) in NW Russia and eastern Finland can be classified into four groups: (a) primitive mantle-derived silica-undersaturated silicate magmas; (b) evolved alkaline and nepheline syenites; (

Titanium and water-rich metamorphic olivine in high-pressure serpentinites from the Voltri Massif (Ligurian Alps, Italy): evidence for deep subduction of high-field strength and fluid-mobile elements [PDF]
Titanium- and water-rich metamorphic olivine (Fo 86-88) is reported from partially dehydrated serpentinites from the Voltri complex, Ligurian Alps. The rocks are composed of mostly antigorite and olivine in addition to magnetite, chlorite, clinopyroxene ...

High pressure minerals in the Château-Renard (L6) ordinary chondrite: implications for collisions on its parent body [PDF]
We report the first discoveries of high-pressure minerals in the historical L6 chondrite fall Château-Renard, based on co-located Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and electron backscatter ...

Mineralogical Mapping of Pyroxene and Anorthosite in Dryden Crater Using M3 Hyperspectral Data
This study investigates the mineral composition of the lunar Dryden Crater using Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3) data. A RGB false-color composite reveals distinct pyroxene, anorthosite, and possibly spinel distribution patterns.
