Original Calibration of a Garnet Geobarometer in Metapelite [PDF]

open access: yesMinerals, 2019
In many metapelitic assemblages, plagioclase is either CaO-deficient or even absent. In such cases, all the widely applied, well-calibrated plagioclase-related geobarometers lose their usage. Fortunately, it has been found that a net-transfer reaction including intracrystalline Fe2+–Ca2+ exchange in garnet is pressure-sensitive, therefore, a garnet ...

Mössbauer spectroscopy of sulphidic minerals [PDF]

open access: yesActa Montanistica Slovaca, 2000
Principles of the Mössbauer effect and the possibilities of its utilization for the study of sulphidic minerals are discussed. There is possibility to apply the Mössbauer spectroscopy in mineralogy for the identification of sulphides („fingerprint ...

Experimental calibration of hornblende as a proposed emprical geobarometer [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1988
The recent Eos report by Anderson [1987] reviewed prospects for using dated granitoid plutons as crustal nails in the reconstruction of descent or ascent of deformed crust during orogenic processes, if suitable geobarometers could be established.

THERMOBAROMETRY OF DEPLETED PERIDOTITES

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика
An assessment was made of the possibility of using olivine thermobarometry for xenoliths of depleted peridotites from the Udachnaya pipe (Yakutia), represented by 76 megacrystalline dunites and 5 megacrystalline harzburgites.

The evaluation of physico-chemical parameters of the Nasrand Plutonic complex by using mineral composition

open access: yesJournal of Economic Geology, 2017
Introduction Mineral composition is sensitive to variations in the composition of the magma and can be used to characterize the physical conditions of crystallization such as temperature, pressure, oxygen fugacity and water content.

Origin of Mafic Microgranular Enclaves (MMEs) and Their Host Rocks of the Cretaceous Xiaojiang-Liangnong Granitic Complexes in the Southeast Coast Magmatic Belt, S China

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2009
Cretaceous Late Yanshanian (LY) magmatism produced large amounts of I-type granitoids in the Southeast Coast Mag matic Belt (SCMB). I-type granitoids from Xiaojiang-Liangnong complexes (N Zhejiang) in the northern part of this belt are characterized by ...

40Ar/39Ar DATING OF ALKALINE ROCKS FROM THE BURPALA MASSIF AS A KEY TO UNDERSTANDING ITS FORMATION DURATION

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика
The article presents the results of 40Ar/39Ar dating of rocks (quartz and alkali syenites, nepheline syenites with REE-Nb-Zr mineralization) from the Burpala massif using feldspar, phlogopite, and amphibole.

Mantle Xenolith Evidence for Lithospheric Thinning and Metasomatic Modification Beneath the Eastern Fiji Plateau: Implications for Samoan Plume Supply, Intraplate Volcanism, and Orocline Formation

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
We provide petrographic and geochemical characterisation of mantle xenoliths from Koro Island, eastern Fiji. Several lherzolite xenoliths display spinel–pyroxene symplectite textures, including preserved former grain boundaries, consistent with garnet breakdown that we attribute to thinning of a preexisting garnet‐facies lithospheric mantle beneath ...

On the sphalerite geobarometer.

open access: yesGEOCHEMICAL JOURNAL, 1988
Even though the sphalerite geobarometer enjoys wide support as a very reliable parameter which gives pressure values consistent with the pressures obtained by different silicates equilibrium, thermodynamically the internal consistency of its experimental data may be questioned. The pressure read from the geobarometer should be regarded tentatively.

Low Water Content of the Lower Continental Crust Induced by Decompression Melting: Evidence From the Weichang Granulite Xenoliths in the Northern North China Craton

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The water content of granulite xenoliths from the Cenozoic Weichang basalts in the northern North China Craton (NCC) is investigated to constrain the nature and evolution of the lower crust. Granulites are categorized into felsic and mafic groups, characterized by widely developed glass‐bearing sieve textures in their constituent minerals ...
