The Occurrence and Morphology of Naturally Occurring Respirable Mordenite Mineral Fibres in New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Mordenite is a naturally occurring zeolite mineral that is the seventh most common zeolite mineral globally, forming at low temperatures (≥100°C) in hydrothermal systems. In New Zealand, extensive deposits of mordenite are commonly associated with areas of hydrothermal alteration, particularly in the Coromandel and Taupo Volcanic Zones.

Pleistocene and Holocene Mobility of Detrital Platinum in Southern New Zealand: Review and Regional Synthesis

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Detrital platinum group minerals (PGM) are rare and distinctive in Pleistocene–Holocene sedimentary systems of the southern South Island, thereby enabling tracking of their long‐distance transport for ∼200 km. The first ∼100 km of transport involved Pleistocene glaciofluvial processes southwards down the Waiau River, where PGM (principally Pt–Fe and Ru–

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

open access: yesNew 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 ...

Fluid‐Driven Cohesive Strengthening: Critical Role of Reaction Kinetics as the Determinant for Frictional Stability

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Following an earthquake, faults lock and regain strength via a combination of healing mechanisms that include pressure solution, contact growth, and cementation. Fault healing dictates strength recovery during the seismic cycle and is therefore a key factor controlling earthquake recurrence intervals, stress drop, and other source properties ...
