Evidence for magma mixing/mingling process in the plutonic intrusive bodies of Qorveh (Kurdistan Province): with emphasis on textural and geochemical characteristics [PDF]
پترولوژی, 2023 The Qorveh batholith, in the N-Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone, comprises several gabbroic, dioritic and granitic masses intruded the Jurassic metamorphic assemblage (i.e., schist, amphibolite and marble). In spite of a number of studies which have been carried out

Geochemical Consequences of Melt Percolation: The Upper Mantle as a Chromatographic Column [PDF]
, 1987 As magmas rise toward the surface, they traverse regions of the mantle and crust with which they are not in equilibrium; to the extent that time and the intimacy of their physical contact permit, the melts and country rocks will interact chemically. We

Orientation of the eruption fissures controlled by a shallow magma chamber in Miyakejima
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2016 Orientation of the eruption fissures and composition of the lavas of the Miyakejima volcano indicate tectonic influence of a shallow magma chamber on the distribution of eruption fissures.

Petrology of some oceanic island basalts: PRIMELT2.XLS software for primary magma calculation [PDF]
, 2008 PRIMELT2.XLS software is introduced for calculating primary magma composition and mantle potential temperature (TP) from an observed lava composition. It is an upgrade over a previous version in that it includes garnet peridotite melting and it detects ...

Melting and Mixing States of the Earth's Mantle after the Moon-Forming Impact [PDF]
, 2015 The Earth's Moon is thought to have formed by an impact between the Earth and an impactor around 4.5 billion years ago. This impact could have been so energetic that it could have mixed and homogenized the Earth's mantle. However, this view appears to be

Trace element and isotope constraints on crustal anatexis by upwelling mantle melts in the North Atlantic Igneous Province: an example form the Isle of Rum, NW Scotland [PDF]
, 2009 Sr and Nd isotope ratios, together with lithophile trace elements, have been measured in a representative set of igneous rocks and Lewisian gneisses from the Isle of Rum in order to unravel the petrogenesis of the felsic rocks that erupted in the early ...
