Cordierite-spinel-quartz assemblages: A potential geobarometer [PDF]
The composition of (Mg-Zn-Fe+2)-aluminate-spinel coexisting with cordierite and quartz is potentially a sensitive geobarometer in rock types such as cordierite ‒ anthophyllite rocks which are not well suited to most other geobarometers. Calculations based on thermodynamic data and the end member reactions demonstrated that the compositions of (Mg-Fe) ‒

Geochemistry, mineral chemistry and pressure–temperature conditions of the Jõhvi magnetite quartzites and magnetite-rich gneisses, NE Estonia [PDF]
The Jõhvi magnetite quartzites (MagQ) occur as subvertical beds with a complicated structural outline in biotite-garnet-cordierite and pyroxene gneisses which in places also contain high concentrations of iron. Drill core study shows that the complex of

The Polumir granite: Addititional data on its origin [PDF]
The Polumir granite is exposed on several localities due to erosion, and its chemical and mineral composition is presented in this paper. It is built of K-feldspar, plagioclase, myrmekite, metasomatic albite, biotite, muscovite and quartz, while apatite,

The pyrope (Prp)–almandine (Alm) solid solutions are the most fundamental garnet components on the Earth, and both the quartz inclusions in garnet (QuiG) barometry and the garnet inclusions in diamond barometry need to be constrained by the thermoelastic

PT-conditions of deformation within the Palaeoproterozoic South Finland shear zone: Some geothermobarometric results [PDF]
Four rock samples were collected from the crustal-scale South Finland shear zone in order to compare PT-conditions of deformation between gneissose and mylonitic rock types.

Structural and rheological evolution of the Laramide subduction channel in southern California [PDF]
The Pelona Schist in the San Gabriel Mountains, southern California, formed in the Laramide subduction channel, exhibits multiple phases of deformation/metamorphism and provides valuable insights into the rheological properties of the subduction channel.

Abstract A temperature-composition diagram has been constructed for the system MgSiO3 FeSiO3 at 1 atm, using a combination of experimental data obtained at 1100 and 1250° and thermodynamic calculations. From the information contained in thisT-X diagram, and that provided by experimental work on theP-T stability field of orthoferrosilite, and by ...

The potential use of OH-defects in enstatite as geobarometer [PDF]
In this study, single crystals of pure enstatite (Mg2Si2O6) were synthesised under water-saturated conditions at 4 and 8 GPa and 1,150°C with variable silica activity, leading to phase assemblages enstatite + forsterite, enstatite or enstatite + coesite.
