Advances in seismic imaging of mantle transition zone discontinuities
Located between the 410-km and 660-km discontinuities, the mantle transition zone is the key region for understanding the thermal and chemical structure and the dynamic evolution of the Earth’s mantle.

Evolving force balance during incipient subduction [PDF]
Nearly half of all active subduction zones initiated during the Cenozoic. All subduction zones associated with active back arc extension have initiated since the Eocene, hinting that back arc extension may be intimately associated with an interval ...

Integrated petrographic, mineralogical and geochemical data from the Hastanetepe Pb–Zn deposit (Balya, Türkiye) reveal multi‐stage hydrothermal alteration and a magmatic sulphur source. Fluid inclusion and sulphur isotope results indicate a complex fluid evolution responsible for skarn‐type Pb–Zn mineralization along limestone–dacite contacts ...

At Mid‐Ocean Ridges, hot, reduced, acidic, and metal‐rich fluids are responsible for the formation of ultramafic‐hosted seafloor massive sulfide deposits (UM‐SMSs), where mantle exhumation efficiently operates.

Petrogenetic processes in the ultramafic, alkaline and carbonatitic magmatism in the Kola Alkaline Province: a review [PDF]
Igneous rocks of the Devonian Kola Alkaline Carbonatite Province (KACP) in NW Russia and eastern Finland can be classified into four groups: (a) primitive mantle-derived silica-undersaturated silicate magmas; (b) evolved alkaline and nepheline syenites; (

ABSTRACT Mount Erciyes, the largest active volcano of Central Anatolia (Turkey), erupted explosively during the Holocene, producing the Karagüllü, Perikartin and Dikkartin tuff rings. Even though major cities like Kayseri and its ~1 million residents sit directly on these pyroclastic deposits, the timing and magnitude of the explosive eruptions have ...

The role of CO2 in the genesis of Dabie-type porphyry molybdenum deposits
Porphyry-type molybdenum deposits, many of which are in China, supply most of the World’s molybdenum. Of particular importance are the molybdenum deposits located in the Qinling-Dabie region that are responsible for more than half of China’s molybdenum ...

A Novel Approach to Identifying Mantle‐Equilibrated Zircon by Using Trace Element Chemistry
One of the requirements for inferring mantle redox states via zircon Ce/Ce* oxybarometry and Ti‐in‐zircon thermometry is to select mantle‐equilibrated zircon derived from melts that have not interacted with the hydrosphere nor assimilated exogenous ...

Africa's Cenozoic tectonism is often attributed to mantle plumes, particularly below East Africa, but their morphology, number, location, and impact on the African lithosphere are debated.

Trace-element geochemistry of mantle olivine and application to mantle petrogenesis and geothermobarometry [PDF]
Abstract Trace-element compositions of olivine from 75 mantle rocks of diverse origin, including xenoliths from kimberlites, basaltic lavas and orogenic peridotites, were determined by laser ablation ICP-MS to study systematic variations between mantle lithologies, partitioning mechanisms in olivine and their potential for geothermobarometry and ...
