Sedimentary Mercury Enrichments as a Tracer of Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Emeishan Basalts (SW China) and the ‘end-Guadalupian’ crisis: magnetobiostratigraphic constraints [PDF]
A magnetostratigraphic investigation of the Permian Emeishan LIP (large igneous province) was carried out on a composite section in Ebian County, close to the type area in Sichuan, SW China. The main succession of twelve flows (175 m thick) carries a normal polarity whilst the one reliable site from the overlying 30 m thick volcanic waning

The Baima igneous complex (BIC) consists of a cumulate layered gabbroic unit, an Fe-Ti oxide ore zone, and an isotropic quartz syenite. The formation of the BIC is attributed to a variety of petrological processes including: silicate immiscibility ...

Paleomagnetism and electron microscopy of the Emeishan Basalts, Yunnan, China [PDF]
Abstract Many normal and a few reversed characteristic directions of magnetization have been obtained by predominantly thermal demagnetization from ten sites of the Late Permian Emeishan Basalts collected near Kunming, Yunnan Province. The normal magnetization directions pass a fold test at the 99% confidence level and yield declination/inclination =

Large igneous provinces and mass extinctions: an update [PDF]
The temporal link between mass extinctions and large igneous provinces is well known. Here, we examine this link by focusing on the potential climatic effects of large igneous province eruptions during several extinction crises that show the best ...

Magnetostratigraphic constraints on two‐stage eruptions of the Emeishan continental flood basalts [PDF]
Temporal and spatial variations of high and low contents of Ti basalts in the Permian Emeishan large igneous province (ELIP) of southwest China and Vietnam are crucial for modeling of continental basalt formation and the nature of mantle‐lithosphere interaction.
