The quartz-dioritic Hospitais intrusion (SW Iberian Massif) and its mafic microgranular enclaves — Evidence for mineral clustering [PDF]
Abstract The Hospitais pluton is an elliptical body, with its long axis oriented WNW–ESE, that belongs to the Evora Massif (Iberian Variscan belt). This intrusion has a quartz-dioritic composition, with plagioclase, quartz, amphibole (hornblende, but locally also cummingtonite) and biotite as the main mineral phases.

Contribution from Mafic Melt to the Zhireken Porphyry Mo-Cu Deposit, Eastern Transbaikalia, Russia: Evidence from Mafic Microgranular Enclaves [PDF]
Mafic microgranular enclaves (MME) were formed in felsic ore-bearing porphyries from the Zhireken por-phyry Mo-Cu deposit, eastern Transbaikalia, Russia. Porphyry rocks were emplaced during the Upper Jurassic.

Magma mixing in the Karamaili granite belt of Eastern Junggar: evidence from A2-type granites and their mafic microgranular enclaves [PDF]
The Karamaili Orogenic Belt forms an essential part of the southernmost margin of the Eastern Junggar Orogenic Belt. The Late Carboniferous granitic belt of the Karamaili belt provides a valuable natural setting for studying the evolution of silicic ...

Mafic microgranular enclaves (MMEs) trace the origin of post-collisional magmas
Abstract Mafic microgranular enclaves (MMEs) are a ubiquitous feature of post-collisional magmatism, receiving much attention among earth scientists over the last decades. While recent advances point to the large-scale involvement of the lithospheric mantle in granite petrogenesis, MMEs have received less attention in such discussion ...

Abstract Mafic microgranular enclaves (MMEs) in host granitoids can provide important constraints on the deep magmatic processes. The Oligocene-Miocene granitoid plutons of the NW Anatolia contain abundant MMEs. This paper presents new hornblende Ar-Ar ages and whole-rock chemical and Sr-Nd isotope data of the MMEs from these granitic rocks ...

Petrography, geochemistry and Fractal analysis of Mafic Enclaves in the Alvand Plutonic to investigate magma mixing processes [PDF]
The Alvand plutonic complex is located in Sanandaj- Sirjan Zone in south and west of Hamedan. Petrographic studies indicate that this body is composed of mafic intrusive rocks, porphyry granitoids and leoucocratic granitoids with various enclaves such as

Investigation of the formation processes in the mafic enclaves of Naqadeh plutonic rocks assemblage by zircon U-Pb dating, Sr-Nd isotopic ratios, and amphibole composition [PDF]
Naqadeh intrusive pluton is composed of two distinct sections of felsic (40 Ma age) and mafic (99 Ma age) rocks. The granitoid rocks of Naqadeh pluton have different types of mafic enclaves, including mafic microgranular enclaves (MME) and quartz ...
