Structure and metamorphic petrology of the Forth metamorphic complex [PDF]

open access: green, 2023
The Forth Metamorphics outcrop in the lower reaches of the Forth River, Northern Tasmania and comprise a banded garnetiferous schist and quartzite, interlayered with sub-ordinate orthoamphibolites of tholeiitic MORB-type affinity. Geochemical and sedimentological constraints are consistent with a passive continental depositional environment and the ...

Charnockites: Petrologic and phase equilibria characterization of some global examples

open access: yesGeosystems and Geoenvironment, 2023
Charnockites (orthopyroxene-bearing granitoids) constitute one of the major components in many Precambrian high-grade metamorphic terranes of the world.

Metamorphic P–T Evolution and In Situ Biotite Rb–Sr Geochronology of Garnet–Staurolite Schist From the Ramba Gneiss Dome in the Northern Himalaya

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The North Himalayan gneiss domes provide a window for looking into the deeper crust and record abundant clues of continent collisional orogenesis. This study carried out detailed petrology, in situ LA–ICP–MS biotite Rb–Sr dating, and phase equilibrium ...

Virtual mapping and analytical data integration: a teaching module using Precambrian crystalline basement in Colorado's Front Range (USA) [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscience Communication, 2021
The COVID-19 pandemic hindered the ability to conduct field geology courses in a hands-on and boots-on traditional manner. In response, we designed a multi-part virtual field module that encompasses many of the basic requirements of an advanced field ...

Evidence for a pre-Himalayan metamorphism in the High Himalayan Crystalline of the Miyar Valley (NW India)

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Geosciences, 2023
Most of the tectonic, metamorphic and geochronological data suggest that the Himalaya is essentially the consequence of a single orogenic cycle associated with the India-Asia collision during the Cenozoic era.

Petrology and Tectonic Geophysics of Massive and Foliated Eclogites in the North Qilian Orogenic Belt: Changes in Mineral Composition, Oxygen Fugacity, and Fabric during Exhumation

open access: yesAdsorption Science & Technology, 2022
The North Qilian orogenic belt is a typical area of “cold” subduction of the early Paleozoic oceanic plate, forming a series of high pressure and low temperature metamorphic rock assemblages. Among them, eclogite is a kind of protolith, which is basaltic

A Log‐Ratio‐Based Algorithm for Petrologic Mass‐Balance Problems and Uncertainty Assessment

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
We provide a new algorithm for mass‐balance calculations in petrology and geochemistry based on the log‐ratio approach championed initially by John Aitchison (e.g., Aitchison, 1982, https://doi.org/10.1111/j.2517-6161.1982.tb01195.x; Aitchison, 1984 ...
