Mantle heterogeneity during the formation of the North Atlantic Igneous Province: Constraints from trace element and Sr-Nd-Os-O isotope systematics of Baffin Island picrites [PDF]

, 2004
Sr-Nd-Os-O isotope and major and trace element data from ~62 Ma picrites from Baffin Island constrain the composition of mantle sources sampled at the inception of North Atlantic Igneous Province (NAIP) magmatism.

Insights on the volcanic and impact histories of the lunar nearside from the petrology, geochemistry, and geochronology of the Calcalong Creek lunar regolith breccia meteorite

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 3, Page 392-421, March 2025.
Abstract The Calcalong Creek lunar meteorite is a regolith breccia with a lithologically diverse array of clasts set in a glassy, highly vesicular matrix. Here, we present a comprehensive new analysis of the meteorite. Comparisons to remote sensing data, lunar sample lithologies, and lunar sample ages indicate that it was likely sourced from regolith ...

Water budget in flat vs. steep subduction: implication for volcanism and potential for H2 production

BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
In this study, we model the processes of (de)hydration and melting within subduction zones using a thermo-mechanical modeling approach. Multiple 2D simulations are conducted to investigate how the subduction angle influences the water budget in oceanic ...

Isotope geochemistry and petrogenesis of peralkaline Middle Miocene ignimbrites from central Sonora: relationship with continental break-up and the birth of the Gulf of California [PDF]

, 2008
Middle Miocene peralkaline ignimbrites constitute a specific geodynamic marker of the early stage of opening of the Gulf of California, preserved either in central Sonora or the Puertecitos area, in Baja California.

Evidence for late impact‐induced metasomatism on the brachinite parent body recorded by a phosphate assemblage in NWA 7828

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Brachinites are a group of ultramafic achondritic meteorites thought to sample a planetesimal from the early inner solar system. They yield predominately ancient crystallization ages within 4 Ma of CAI formation, and while the formation mechanism for these samples is debated, they are widely thought to be partial melt residues from a ...

The lithospheric mantle and lower crust-mantle relationships under Scotland: a xenolithic perspective [PDF]

, 2011
In the British Isles the majority of volcanic rocks containing upper mantle and lower crustal xenoliths occur in Scotland. Most of the occurrences are of Carboniferous–Permian age.

Linking magmatism with collision in an accretionary orogen

Scientific Reports, 2016
A compilation of U-Pb age, geochemical and isotopic data for granitoid plutons in the southern Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB), enables evaluation of the interaction between magmatism and orogenesis in the context of Paleo-Asian oceanic closure and ...

Radioisotopic age constraints of the Cambrian Ritland impact structure, Norway

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Secondary ion mass spectrometry U‐Pb geochronology has been performed on zircon grains separated from impact melt rock from the 2.7 km‐in‐diameter Ritland impact structure, southwestern Norway. Scanning electron microscope‐based imaging techniques, including electron backscatter diffraction analysis, reveal various zircon grain microtextures ...

Detrital-zircon geochronology and provenance of the Ocloyic synorogenic clastic wedge, and Ordovician accretion of the Argentine Precordillera terrane [PDF]

, 2015
The Precordillera terrane in northwestern Argentina is interpreted to be anexotic (Laurentian) continental fragment that was accreted to western Gondwanaduring the Ordovician. One prominent manifestation of the subductionand collision process is a Middle?

Rock‐buffered versus fluid‐buffered geochemistry of structurally controlled, hydrothermal dolomite: Insights from the Sichuan Basin, China

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Structurally controlled hydrothermal dolomitization, commonly driven by high‐pressure, high‐temperature fluid–rock reactions, offers insights into the tectonic evolution of sedimentary basins and the geochemical composition of their diagenetic fluids.
