Chromite in main group pallasite meteorites: Accessory mineral tracing planetesimal differentiation

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
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

Rock‐buffered versus fluid‐buffered geochemistry of structurally controlled, hydrothermal dolomite: Insights from the Sichuan Basin, China

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
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.

Sedimentary record of submarine gravity‐flow events in the southern Ryukyu forearc during the last 200 000 years: archive of mega‐earthquakes and tsunamis

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
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.

Magnetostratigraphy and Source Characterisation Across the Early Miocene Unconformity, Northern Rocky Mountains, USA

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
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

Petrogenesis of melanite-garnets in monzodiorites from SW of Jandaq (NW of Central-East Iranian Microcontinent)

open access: yesJournal of Economic Geology
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,

Kuroko Deposits of NE Japan: The Product of High‐Temperature, Shallow Felsic Volcanism in a Deepening Continental Rift

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
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.
