Along ultraslow spreading ridges melt is distributed unequally, but melt focusing guides melt away from amagmatic segments toward volcanic centers. An interplay of tectonism and magmatism is thought to control melt ascent, but the detailed process of ...

Oxygen-isotope and trace element constraints on the origins of silica-rich melts in the subarc mantle [PDF]
Peridotitic xenoliths in basaltic andesites from Batan island in the Luzon arc contain silica-rich (broadly dacitic) hydrous melt inclusions that were likely trapped when these rocks were within the upper mantle wedge underlying the arc.

Neodymium and gadolinium extraction from molten fluorides by reduction on a reactive electrode [PDF]
This work describes the electrochemical extraction on a reactive cathode (Cu, Ni) of two lanthanides Ln (Ln = Nd and Gd) from molten LiF-CaF2 medium at 840 and 920°C for Nd and 940°C for Gd.

Magmatic to solid-state evolution of a shallow emplaced agpaitic tinguaite (the Suc de Sara dyke, Velay volcanic province, France): implications for peralkaline melt segregation and extraction in ascending magmas [PDF]
In the last decades the mush model has been generalized to the complete trans-crustal magmatic system in which differentiation would be driven by segregation and extraction of trapped melts from crystal-rich mushes. Melt extraction processes involved are

Primary crustal melt compositions: Insights into the controls, mechanisms and timing of generation from kinetics experiments and melt inclusions [PDF]
We explore the controls, mechanisms and timing of generation of primary melts and their compositions, and show that the novel studies of melt inclusions in migmatites can provide important insights into the processes of crustal anatexis of a particular ...

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are natural polyesters which biodegrade in soils and oceans but have more than double the cost of comparable oil-based polymers. PHA downstreaming from its biomass represents 50% of its overall cost.

Physics of Melt Extraction from the Mantle: Speed and Style
Melt extraction from the partially molten mantle is among the fundamental processes shaping the solid Earth today and over geological time. A diversity of properties and mechanisms contribute to the physics of melt extraction. We review progress of the past ∼25 years of research in this area, with a focus on understanding the speed and style of ...
