Carbonate sedimentology: An evolved discipline
Abstract Although admired and examined since antiquity, carbonate sediment and rock research really began with Charles Darwin who, during a discovery phase, studied, documented and interpreted their nature in the mid‐19th century. The modern discipline, however, really began after World War II and evolved in two distinct phases.

Charnockites with 2691–2607 Ma magmatic ages from the NMZ show arc‐magmatic geochemical signatures. They correspond to the lower‐crustal equivalent of the Chilimanzi Suite Granite in the Zimbabwe Craton. Lu‐Hf isotopic data of magmatic zircons show negative εHf(t) values (−11.18 to −2.20) with TDMC ages of 3699–3158 Ma, suggesting their protolith ...

High‐Titanium Zircon Rims in Rhyolite – A Reflection of Adiabatic Ascent?
The ascent of granitic magma from source to emplacement is rapidly achieved through dyking, resulting in negligible heat loss to the surrounding wallrock (i.e., adiabatic). Zircon growth during ascent can record the changing magma conditions including adiabatic cooling and heating, resulting in high titanium rims on low titanium cores without ...

Subducted Carbon From Mantle Plume in Mid‐Ocean Ridge Basalts
Deciphering the Earth's deep carbon cycle, from mantle plumes to mid‐ocean ridges, remains incompletely understood. In this study, we analyze the magnesium isotope composition of basalts collected from the South Mid‐Atlantic Ridge (SMAR), which have been

Frontiers in earth sciences: new ideas and interpretation
A one-day symposium on new and conventional ideas in plate tectonics and Mediterranean geodynamics was held in Rome on February 19, 2003 at the headquarters of INGV. There were two main reasons for such an initiative.

Carbonates from Santos Basin revealed U–Pb ages correlated with basalt ages (A), suggesting that they were formed during magmatic events. These events placed hot CO2 in the reservoir, which, when mixed with carbonate‐rich cold water (B), led to thermal convection, enabling the formation of the U contained in the carbonates.
