Gravity field and geothermal structure of the Corsica‐Sardinia Block
Abstract This paper presents a finite‐differences 3D numerical model that simulates the gravity and thermal structure of the Corsica‐Sardinia Block (CSB), an apparently stable lithospheric domain characterized by cryptic tectonic activity. In the experiments, we change the density and heat production rate of the model crust within a range of ...

Sediment provenance in the Pacific Coast of Mexico The Salina Cruz and Puerto Ángel beach areas in the Gulf of Tehuantepec, Mexican Pacific coast represent an important economic sector of the region. In this study, the mineralogy and geochemistry of bulk sediments, and geochronology of 400 detrital zircons recovered from the beach sediments were ...

Age and origin of proterozoic kimberlites and lamproites from the Dharwar Craton, southern India [PDF]
This is a study of kimberlite and lamproite intrusions located in southern India within the Eastern Dharwar craton (EDC). Bulk-rock major-element, trace-element, REE- and Nd- isotopic data support previous studies that have classified the ultramafic ...

Abstract Mantle heterogeneity in lithology and geochemistry is often attributed to recycled subducted materials. While distinct mantle end‐members are identified by radiogenic isotopes, the specific recycled materials contributing to this heterogeneity remain debated.

Abstract In this study, we concentrate on the seismic signature of subducted sediments and suggest the formation of the L‐discontinuity beneath the ancient craton related to migrated sediment dehydration. We first determined the single‐crystal elasticity of topaz, the product of sediment dehydration, at high pressures and temperatures by Brillouin ...

Detailed textural and mineral chemistry characterisation of lamproites from the Socovos fault zone, SE Spain Neogene Volcanic Province (NVP) combining X-ray element maps and LA-ICP-MS spot analyses has provided valuable information about mantle depth ultrapotassic magma mixing processes. Despite having similar whole-rock compositions, rocks emplaced in

Abstract The rheology of crystalline units controls the large‐scale deformation geometry and dynamics of collisional orogens. Defining a time‐constrained rheological evolution of such units may help unravel the details of collisional dynamics. Here, we integrate field analysis, pseudosection calculations and in situ garnet U–Pb and mica Rb–Sr ...

Ancient Craton‐Wide Mid‐Lithosphere Discontinuity Controlled by Pargasite Channels
Abstract The mechanisms governing a commonly observed seismic velocity drop in the cratonic lithosphere, referred to as the mid‐lithospheric discontinuity (MLD), have been widely debated. To identify the composition and seismic structure of MLDs, we have analyzed Sp receiver functions (SRF) and mantle xenocrysts for six regions across Australia.

Delamination Magmatism in Eastern Anatolia: A Geochemical Perspective
Abstract The Sr‐Nd‐Hf‐Pb isotope geochemistry of the Late Miocene Tunceli Volcanics suggests that they are the products of mixed asthenospheric and lithospheric mantle melts. The combined elemental and mineral chemistry data additionally indicate that a pyroxenite component of lithospheric origin is involved in their genesis. Calculations favor melting
