Application of clinopyroxene as a petrogenic mineral in determining the nature of Ordovician intrusive rocks in Ziarat (Southern Gorgan, Golestan Province)

open access: yesJournal of Economic Geology, 2021
Introduction The study area is located in the Eastern Alborz zone (Gansser, 1951) which is a part of the northern margin of Gondwana during the Paleozoic (Stöcklin, 1974; Salehi Rad, 1979; Berberian and King, 1981; Şengor, 1990; Alavi, 1991, 1996 ...

The origin of alteration “orangettes” in Dhofar 019: Implications for the age and aqueous history of the shergottites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The shergottites are the largest group of Martian meteorites, and the only group that has not been found to contain definitive evidence of Martian aqueous alteration.

Mineral chemistry of clinopyroxene and feldspars in the Neoproterozoic alkaline dykes of the Bangalore District, Karnataka, India [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1993
The unmetamorphosed Neoproterozoic dykes of the continental intraplate alkaline magmatism studied in Southern Karnataka consist of analcime-tinguaites, tinguaites, bostonites and solvsbergites.

Experimental constraints on amphibole stability in primitive alkaline and calc-alkaline magmas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Equilibrium crystallization experiments were carried out on two primitive basaltic rocks (APR16: Na2O+K2O=4.40 wt%; CM42: Na2O+K2O=2.59 wt%) with the aim to investigate the amphibole stability in the differentiation processes at deep crustal level, of

Surface textures of detrital pyroxenes in coastal dune sands (western Gulf of Mexico, Mexico): Implications for their preservation and geoenvironmental processes

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, 2023
This work investigates how the surface textures and morphology of pyroxene grains evolve during their source‐to‐sink history. This study applies to detrital clinopyroxenes concentrated in coastal dune sands of the Gulf of Mexico which were sourced in the

Glass in the submarine section of the HSDP2 drill core, Hilo, Hawaii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The Hawaii Scientific Drilling Project recovered ~3 km of basalt by coring into the flank of Mauna Kea volcano at Hilo, Hawaii. Rocks recovered from deeper than ~1 km were deposited below sea level and contain considerable fresh glass. We report electron

MINERAL COMPOSITION AND PT PARAMETERS OF CRYSTALLIZATION OF MANTLE ROCKS UNDER KIMBERLITE FIELDS OF THE ANABAR REGION

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2022
The composition of barophilic minerals from mantle xenoliths and Cpx from concentrates of the Kuranakh, Luchakan, Dyuken, and Ary-Mastakh fields of the Anabar region has been studied.

The lithospheric mantle and lower crust-mantle relationships under Scotland: a xenolithic perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the British Isles the majority of volcanic rocks containing upper mantle and lower crustal xenoliths occur in Scotland. Most of the occurrences are of Carboniferous–Permian age.

Creep of dry clinopyroxene aggregates [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2001
We have determined diffusional and dislocation creep rheologies for clinopyroxenite Ca1.0Mg0.8Fe0.2Si2O6 under dry conditions by deforming natural and hot‐pressed samples at confining pressures of 300–430 MPa and temperatures of 1100°–1250°C with the oxygen fugacity buffered by either nickel‐nickel oxide or iron‐wüstite powders.

CO2-crystal wettability in potassic magmas. Implications for eruptive dynamics in light of experimental evidence for heterogeneous nucleation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The volatile content in magmas is fundamental for the triggering and style of volcanic eruptions. Carbon dioxide, the second most abundant volatile component in magmas after H2O, is the first to reach saturation upon ascent and depressurization.
