Evidence for present-day leucogranite pluton growth in Tibet [PDF]
Several geophysical surveys carried out in southern Tibet have revealed the occurrences of bright spots of high electrical conductivity at 15–20 km depth, corresponding to zones of seismic attenuation and correlated to high heat flow at the surface.

Syntectonic crustal melting and high-grade metamorphism in a transpressional regime, Variscan Massif Central, France [PDF]
Hot collisional orogens are characterized by abundant syn-kinematic granitic magmatism that profoundly affects their tectono-thermal evolutions. Voluminous granitic magmas, emplaced between 360 and 270 Ma, played a visibly important role in the evolution

Synchronous N-S and E-W extension at the Tibet-to-Himalaya transition in NW Bhutan [PDF]
Despite ~50 Myr of continuous continent-continent collision, contractional structures in the Himalayan-Tibetan orogen are today limited to the northern and southern margins of the system, while extension dominates much of the interior.

The South Millevaches Middle Carboniferous crustal melting and its place in the French Variscan Belt [PDF]
International audienceSeveral episodes of crustal melting are now well identified in the Variscan French Massif Central. Middle Devonian (ca 385-375 Ma) migmatites are recognized in the Upper and Lower Gneiss Units involved in the stack of nappes.

Internal framework and geochemistry of the Carboniferous Huaco granite pluton, Sierra de Velasco, NW Argentina [PDF]
The A-type Huaco granite pluton of the Velasco range (Sierras Pampeanas of northwest Argentina) is formed by three coeval granitic facies and contains subordinate coeval-to-late facies, as well as enclaves, dikes and stocks that show different temporal ...

An Investigation on the Composition of Biotite from Mashhad Granitoids, NE Iran [PDF]
Compositions of biotite from three different rock types of Mashhad granitoids, i.e., granodiorite, monzogranite and leucogranite in NE of Iran have been documented by electron microprobe and wet chemistry for Fe3+ and Fe2+.

Textural and mineral-chemistry constraints on columbite-group minerals in the Penouta deposit: evidence from magmatic and fluid-related processes [PDF]
The Penouta Sn-Ta deposit, in the northwest of Spain, is a greisenized granitic cupola where Ta minerals occur mainly as disseminations in a leucogranite body intruded in Precambrian–Lower Cambrian gneisses and mica-schists. This leucogranite is a medium-
