Eu isotope fractionation and hydrothermal alteration [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Europium (Eu) has two naturally stable isotopes (151Eu and 153Eu). The Eu anomalies produced by feldspar crystallization during magma differentiation have provided valuable geochemical information for understanding the evolutionary history of magma in ...

K isotopes as a tracer of seafloor hydrothermal alteration. [PDF]

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2017
Significance Elemental exchange between seawater and oceanic crust is important both in modulating the ionic composition of seawater over geologic time and in controlling the elemental and isotopic makeup of various solid-earth reservoirs. This study documents large and systematic variations in the K-isotope composition of oceanic crust that ...

Integrated geophysical, mineralogical, and geochemical investigation of gold and associated hydrothermal minerals in the Um Balad Area, Eastern Desert, Egypt [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Gold exploration in structurally complex Precambrian terranes remains challenging due to the heterogeneous distribution of hydrothermal alteration zones and the difficulty of distinguishing mineralization-related structures from regional tectonic ...

Mineralogical evidence for hydrothermal alteration of Bennu samples. [PDF]

Nat Geosci
Samples of asteroid (101955) Bennu delivered by the OSIRIS-REx mission offer the opportunity to study pristine planetary materials unchanged by exposure to the terrestrial environment. Here we use a combination of X-ray diffraction and various electron microscopy techniques to explore the detailed mineralogy of Bennu samples and determine the ...

Hydrothermal weakening and slope instability at Vulcano (Italy) analyzed using drones and in-situ strength measurements [PDF]

Communications Earth & Environment
Instability at volcanic edifices poses significant hazards, yet the processes driving rock weakening, particularly on steep, eroding flanks, remain poorly understood due to limited accessibility.

Hydrothermal alteration in the Witwatersrand goldfields

Ore Geology Reviews, 2015
Abstract Alteration is recorded throughout much of the 3 km thick Upper Witwatersrand succession in South Africa, and extends for 300 km around the basin and 50 km into the basin. The evidence for this alteration comes from petrography, mineralogy, geochemistry, rock fabrics and stratigraphy.
