Optimization of Pretreatment Method for Tl Isotope Analysis of Geological Samples

open access: yesYankuang ceshi
The thallium (Tl) isotope system can be utilized to track various geological processes, but the current sample digestion and ion exchange methods used for Tl isotope analysis take a long time. To improve the efficiency of chemical pretreatment of samples

Extreme enriched-mantle (EM) compositions recorded by the Sr-Nd-Hf isotopes of global cratonic lamproites

open access: yesGeochimica et Cosmochimica Acta
Cratonic lamproites are rare ultrapotassic rocks that occur in every continent and were emplaced over the last 2 billion years. Owing to their highly radiogenic Sr and unradiogenic Nd-Hf isotopic compositions along with enrichment in K and incompatible trace elements (e.g., Ba, Sr, Ti, Zr), lamproites are believed to be formed by melting geochemically ...

Variations in Hawaiian Plume Flux Controlled by Ancient Mantle Depletion

open access: yesAGU Advances
Mantle plumes—upwellings of buoyant rock in Earth's mantle—feed hotspot volcanoes such as Hawai‘i. The size of volcanoes along the Hawai‘i–Emperor chain, and thus the magma flux of the Hawaiian plume, has varied over the past 85 million years.

Miocene Alkaline Basaltic Magmatism in Northeastern Tibetan Plateau: Implications for Mantle Evolution and Plateau Outward Growth

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
The widespread Cenozoic alkaline magmatism within and around the Tibetan Plateau offers a prime opportunity to probe the nature of the mantle at the depths where basalt magmas originate.

Geochemistry and petrology of three granitoid rock cores from the Nicaraguan Rise, Caribbean Sea: implications for its composition, structure and tectonic evolution

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2011
The Nicaraguan Rise is a major submarine structure of poorly known origin. Its lithologies have been studied from dredge hauls and land outcrops on the Greater Antilles and Central America and its structure from geophysical data. In this paper we present
