Reservoir theory for studying the geochemical evolution of soils [PDF]
[1] Linking mineral weathering rates measured in the laboratory to those measured at the landscape scale is problematic. In laboratory studies, collections of minerals are exposed to the same weathering environment over a fixed amount of time. In natural

Charnockites with 2691–2607 Ma magmatic ages from the NMZ show arc‐magmatic geochemical signatures. They correspond to the lower‐crustal equivalent of the Chilimanzi Suite Granite in the Zimbabwe Craton. Lu‐Hf isotopic data of magmatic zircons show negative εHf(t) values (−11.18 to −2.20) with TDMC ages of 3699–3158 Ma, suggesting their protolith ...

The newly discovered Jiangjunmu Cu–Au deposits are hosted within granodiorite porphyry and K-feldspar granite of the East Kunlun metallogenic belt. Previous understanding of these deposits has been limited due to a lack of comprehensive isotopic data. To

Asteroid Cooling Rates Indicated by K-Feldspar Exsolution Textures in H4 Ordinary Chondrites [PDF]
Undisturbed thermal metamorphism in ordinary chondrite (OC) asteroids, produced through the radioactive decay of 26Al, is expected to result in an onion-shell-like structure. In such a structure, the inner layers of the asteroid experience more extensive

High‐Titanium Zircon Rims in Rhyolite – A Reflection of Adiabatic Ascent?
The ascent of granitic magma from source to emplacement is rapidly achieved through dyking, resulting in negligible heat loss to the surrounding wallrock (i.e., adiabatic). Zircon growth during ascent can record the changing magma conditions including adiabatic cooling and heating, resulting in high titanium rims on low titanium cores without ...

Rubidium (Rb) and cesium (Cs), as rare alkali metals, play a critical role in high-tech industries. However, their efficient extraction from associated mineral resources is challenging, especially in lithium-bearing clays due to fine-grained ...

Pb-Zn and minor U mineralization at Tyndrum, Scotland. [PDF]
This mineralization occurs as veins and vein breccias in fractures associated with the Tyndrum-Glen Fyne fault. Quartz, galena and sphalerite, with minor chalcopyrite and baryte, are accompanied by small inclusions (in the galena-rich veins) of ...

Carbonates from Santos Basin revealed U–Pb ages correlated with basalt ages (A), suggesting that they were formed during magmatic events. These events placed hot CO2 in the reservoir, which, when mixed with carbonate‐rich cold water (B), led to thermal convection, enabling the formation of the U contained in the carbonates.

Khirbet al-Batrawy ceramics. A systematic mineralogical and petrographic study for investigating the material culture [PDF]
The present paper reports the results of a mineralogical and petrographic study focused on the archaeometric characterization of Early Bronze Age pottery from the archaeological site of Khirbet al-Batrawy (Jordan), dated between 3000 and 2000 BC. Optical

ABSTRACT Permafrost is rapidly degrading in the sporadic zone, including palsa mires in Scandinavia. Peatlands in the area have likely accumulated heavy metals from atmospheric deposition of industrial contaminants in the wider region. As the palsa mire chemical composition is not well known, and in other permafrost regions the permafrost thaw may ...
