Geology of the Souter Head subvolcanic complex, Aberdeenshire, Scotland: an Ordovician granite-related Mo–(Bi–As–Au) system [PDF]
ABSTRACTAn Ordovician subvolcanic intrusive complex hosted by Neoproterozoic metasediments crops out at Souter Head about 6km S of Aberdeen, Scotland. The complex is composed mainly of two-mica red granite and breccia with minor dykes of pegmatite, quartz porphyry, felsite and dolerite, and widespread quartz veining, hydrothermal alteration and minor ...

Geochemistry of trace and rare earth elements of the productive intrusions in the Kuh-Kapout porphyry copper deposit, Urumieh–Dokhtar magmatic arc [PDF]
IntroductionThe Cenozoic Urumieh-Dokhtar magmatic arc has characteristics similar to those of Andean-type magmatic arcs. Various types of magmatism occurred in this arc including calc-alkaline and K-rich calc-alkaline magmatism and less of them alkaline ...

Automated collection of single species of microfossils using a deep learning–micromanipulator system
For geochemical analysis such as stable isotope ratio, radiocarbon dating and minor element analysis for a single species of microfossils, a large number of specimens, is required. Collecting specimens one by one under a microscope requires enormous time
