Sur le comportement des leucogranites (ex. « granulites ») en milieu littoral (Leucogranites in coastal conditions)

Bulletin de l'Association de géographes français, 1978
Résumé. - Alors qu'en régions continentales le granite à biotite et/ou muscovite est une roche résistante, il fait figure de roche moins résistante en conditions littorales (Bretagne, Irlande).

Two Cycles of Devonian–Triassic Extension and Compression in the Altai Accretionary Wedge: Insights From Tsogt Core Complex

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Altai Accretionary Wedge in the Mongolian Altai records a polyphase geodynamic evolution involving two extensional–compressional tectonic cycles, constrained by petrostructural analysis and zircon, monazite U–Pb, and Ar–Ar geochronology. The studied section includes a southwestern high‐grade and a northeastern low‐grade domain, previously ...

A Dual‐Geochronologic and Thermochronologic Detrital Approach to Identify the Focus of Erosion in the Kosi Basin, Nepal

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Kosi River watershed captures the major lithotectonic units, structures, and characteristic climatic conditions found along the Himalaya. Therefore, this setting provides a useful location to investigate the respective influences of tectonics and climate in eroding bedrock and driving landscape evolution.

Timing of Dike and Sill Emplacement in the Inner Aureole of the Alta Stock, Utah Determined by Zircon and Monazite Petrochronology

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Detailed geochronology from two compositionally distinct generations of dikes and sills intruded into the Alta metamorphic aureole, north‐central Utah, complement previous geochronologic studies from the Alta stock, providing information on the timing of

Himalayan Leucogranites: An Experimental Petrology Perspective

Elements
The High Himalayan leucogranites (HHL) are produced by muscovite breakdown of a metapelitic source, at temperatures below 800 °C, with initial melt water contents of ~5–7 wt.%. The tourmaline-rich HHL variety is colder, possibly a fractionation product of the hotter two-mica HHL.

Confronting Episodic vs. Continuous Heat Sources in Long‐Lived Hot Orogens: Insights From Petrochronological Studies in the Nova Venecia Complex, Araçuaí Orogen (SE Brazil)

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 43, Issue 9, Page 863-890, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Orogenic belts that sustain elevated temperatures at intermediate crustal depths for tens of millions of years are known as hot orogens. The evolution of these hot orogens is largely influenced by thermal maturation, primarily driven by the distribution of heat‐producing elements (HPEs), such as K, Th and U in the overthickened crust.

Zircon morphology as a petrogenetic indicators in the tonalite-leucogranite association; Zarza la Mayor pluton case (Cáceres, Spain) [PDF]

, 2006
Zarza la Mayor pluton is a good example of the tonalite-leucogranite association. A new survey has been carried out and some additional study of zircon morphologies has been performed.

Chemistry of Hydrothermally Destabilized Rare-Metal and Radioactive Minerals in Deformed A-Type Granite in the Vicinity of Nugrus Shear Zone, South Eastern Desert, Egypt

Resources
In the Wadi Nugrus area, south Eastern Desert of Egypt, A-type granite is highly deformed in a prominent NW-SE trending shear zone, likely related to the Najd shear system.

Late Jurassic Leucogranites of Macau (SE China): A Record of Crustal Recycling During the Early Yanshanian Orogeny

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
The Yanshanian Orogeny consists of Jurassic to Cretaceous compressional-extensional cycles related to the subduction of the Paleo-Pacific Ocean beneath East Asia. Numerous granitic plutons were emplaced across southeast China at distinct intervals over a
