Chromite in main group pallasite meteorites: Accessory mineral tracing planetesimal differentiation
Abstract Main group pallasite meteorites (PMG) are samples of an early, highly differentiated magmatic planetesimal dominated by olivine and metal‐sulfide‐phosphide assemblages with accessory chromite among other phases. This mineralogy reflects mantle‐ and core‐related reservoirs, but the relative contributions of each and the overall petrogenesis are

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.

Sedimentology and geomorphology of tufa barrages on rock coast shore platforms
ABSTRACT Despite tufa deposits being widely distributed and increasingly recognised globally on rock coasts, their distribution in the tidal frame and geomorphology is poorly understood. The distribution, sedimentology and geomorphology of tufa barrages on supratidal rock coasts are assessed and their controls established.

ABSTRACT Despite high convergence velocity, the southern Ryukyu subduction has relatively low and sparse instrumental seismicity, in contrast with the Yaeyama Islands, hit by huge tsunamis over the last few thousand years. This study explores the potential of deep marine sediments to record past large earthquakes and tsunamis.

ABSTRACT The early Miocene unconformity (EMU) formed during a transition in the tectonic regime of western North America that coincided with faunal diversification. The Railroad Canyon section in the northern Rocky Mountains provides a complete geologic record around this event. Our new magnetostratigraphic study in combination with published U‐Pb ages

The Godar-e-Siah Eocene monzodiorite stock is located in the southwest of the Jandaq area (NE of Isfahan) and northwest of the Central-East Iranian Microcontinent (CEIM). The main minerals in these monzodiorites are plagioclase, K-feldspar, clinopyroxene,

ABSTRACT The Hokuroku district of NE Japan hosts the type locality for Kuroko volcanic‐hosted massive sulphide (VHMS) deposits, which are the product of seafloor hydrothermal venting in a continental rift during the opening of the Sea of Japan in the Miocene.
