Myrmekite in the Rubidoux Mountain leucogranite - a replacement pluton [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The Rubidoux Mountain leucogranite is one of many granitic plutons that occur in the eastern part of the Southern California batholith in the Peninsular Range province (Larsen, 1948; Banks, 1963).

Geochemistry and Ar-Ar muscovite ages of the Daraban Leucogranite, Mawat ophiolite, northeastern Iraq: Implications for Arabia-Eurasia continental collision [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Daraban Leucogranite dykes intruded discordantly into the basal serpentinized harzburgite of the Mawat Ophiolite, Kurdistan region, NE Iraq. These coarse grained muscovite-tourmaline leucogranites are the first leucogranite dykes identified within the ...

Geophysical Investigation of Geothermal Potential in Southern Thailand: Insights From GGMplus Gravity

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Southern Thailand hosts numerous low‐ to medium‐enthalpy geothermal manifestations in a non‐volcanic setting. This study investigates the geothermal potential of the region through the integration of satellite‐derived gravity data and geological observations.

Leucogranite genesis connected with low-pressure high-temperature metamorphism in the Sila basement (Calabria, Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A Late-Hercynian intrusion of two-mica leucogranite from the Sila (Calabria, Italy) has been examined for petrographic, geochemical, and radiogenic isotope characteristics.

Leucogranite intruding the South Tibetan Detachment in western Nepal: implicarions for exhumation models in the Himalayas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The most popular models regarding the exhumation of the Greater Himalayan Sequence (GHS), such as extrusion, channel flow, critical taper and wedge extrusion, require prolonged activity of the two bounding shear zones and faults, the Main Central Thrust (

Dating deformation using sheared leucogranite: temporal constraints by 40Ar/39Ar thermochronology for the Mae Ping shear zone, NW Thailand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The Mae Ping shear zone (MPSZ) is one of the major ductile strike-slip systems associated with the Cenozoic extrusion tectonics in Southeast Asia. However, its sinistral shear lacks a robust temporal constraint.

P–T Modelling Constrains the Depth of Emplacement of the Porto Azzurro Pluton and Implies Minor Exhumation Caused by the Zuccale Fault (Island of Elba, Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 6, Page 440-469, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the pressure of emplacement of granitic intrusions is crucial to understanding the exhumation history of plutons and constraining the tectonic setting of magma emplacement. However, P–T and geochronological constraints from exhumed plutons are often characterized by large uncertainties, especially in shallow crustal settings with

Thermal Structure Beneath the Himalayan Orogen Revealed by Pn‐Wave Receiver Function Imaging

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract The Himalayan orogen formed through convergence between the Indian and Eurasian plates, and parts of the subducting Indian crust were impeded by the Lhasa terrane and accreted into the orogen. However, whether the Indian lower crust was stripped from the downgoing plate and incorporated into the orogen, and by what mechanism, remain debated ...

Illite K-Ar and (U-Th)/He low-temperature thermochronology reveal onset timing of Yadong-Gulu rift in southern Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Determining the timing of E-W extension across the NS-trending rifts in southern Tibet is key to test the mechanical models of the latest evolution in the collision between India and Asia.

WHITE MICAS IN THE LAKE LEWIS LEUCOGRANITE, NOVA SCOTIA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The South Mountain Batholith, a peraluminous granitic complex, ranges in composition from biotite granodiorite to muscovite-topaz leucogranite. Leucogranitic rocks form minor and late components of the batholith.
