The structure and petrology of the Cnoc nan Cuilean Intrusion, Loch Loyal Syenite Complex, NW Scotland [PDF]
In NW Scotland, several alkaline intrusive complexes of Silurian age intrude the Caledonian orogenic front. The most northerly is the Loch Loyal Syenite Complex, which is divided into three separate intrusions (Ben Loyal, Beinn Stumanadh and Cnoc nan ...

Computing Elastic Moduli of Igneous Rocks Using Modal Composition and Effective Medium Theory
Elastic constants of rock materials are the basic parameters required for modeling the response of rock materials under mechanical loads. Experimental tests for determining these properties are expensive, time-consuming and suffer from a high uncertainty

Does Zircon Shape Retain Petrogenetic Information?
Zircon shape is commonly reported during geochronology and geochemistry analyses of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks, but the relationship of zircon shape to primary growth environmental conditions remains poorly constrained.

Early Cambrian U-Pb zircon age and Hf-isotope data from the Guasayán pluton, Sierras Pampeanas, Argentina: implications for the northwestern boundary of the Pampean arc [PDF]
An Early Cambrian pluton, known as the Guasayán pluton, has been identified in the central area of Sierra de Guasayán, northwestern Argentina. A U?Pb zircon Concordia age of 533 ± 4 Ma was obtained by LA-MC-ICP-MS and represents the first report of ...

Chemically Driven Nano‐Elastic Heterogeneities Control Fragility in Volcanic Melts
The study elucidates how nanoscale structural heterogeneity governs the mechanical behavior of volcanic glasses across compositions from basalt to rhyolite. Using a physicochemical framework, correlation length (ξ) and microscopic free volume (Vc) are derived from vibrational and physical properties, revealing systematic trends with silica content that
