Diffusion of Hydroxylated Si Vacancies in Olivine, and Its Relevance to Si Diffusion

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract The diffusion coefficient associated with the 3,612 cm−1 infrared absorbance band in H‐bearing olivine, attributed to a defect involving a vacant Si site balanced by four H+ (i.e., ), was determined in H in‐diffusion experiments at 1200°C–1400°C and 1.5–3.0 GPa in piston‐cylinder and multi‐anvil apparatuses.

Mineralogical and gemological characteristics of Kaman (Kırşehir-Türkiye) fluorites

open access: yesGümüşhane Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü Dergisi, 2022
Fluorites are found in the region between Hamit, Karakütük, Bayındır and Yeniyapan villages of the Kaman District (Kırşehir-Türkiye). Fluorites are located in altered levels due to faults in quartz syenites containing gray-pink colored K-feldspar, plagioclase and quartz, amphibole and biotite type mafic minerals in the Upper Cretaceous aged.

Coupling Mineralogy and Oxygen Isotopes to Seasonal Environmental Shifts Recorded in Modern Freshwater Pearl Nacre From Kentucky Lake

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2021., 2021
Abstract Biominerals that accrete shell or skeleton are commonly used as windows to past geochemical environments. Using biominerals as paleoproxies depends on the assumption that biominerals faithfully and predictably record environmental parameters, yet little has been done from a mineralogical perspective to understand how various environmental ...
