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

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

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
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 ...

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