Sedimentary Mercury Enrichments as a Tracer of Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Fluid-induced metamorphism and anatexis of refractory Ni-Co-Cu sulphides in subduction-related rocks [PDF]
The role of metamorphism on refractory sulfides is not well constrained. Although experiments have displayed the effectiveness of high grade metamorphism, namely granulite facies metamorphism, on sulfide anatexis, its role in the presence of other ...

Iron quartzites of the Simandou mountain (Republic of Guinea)
In this article, we for the first time fully describe the geology and petrography of the iron quartzite formation, localized in Southeast Guinea in the Simandou mountain range. In this region, a meridional distribution belt of banded magnetite quartzites

The Archean metamorphism in the southwestern Siberian craton was confirmed by the studies of the Kitoy and Irkutsk blocks. However, the parameters of the metamorphism process are still poorly investigated.

Evolution of migmatitic granulite complexes: Implications from Lapland Granulite Belt, Part I: Metamorphic geology [PDF]
The Palaeoproterozoic Lapland granulite belt was juxtaposed between Archaean and Proterozoic terrains in the NE part of the Fennoscandian Shield concurrently with the accretion of Svecofennian arc complexes at ~1.9 Ga.

Metamorphic testing of OpenStreetMap [PDF]
Context: OpenStreetMap represents a collaborative effort of many different and unrelated users to create a free map of the world. Although contributors follow some general guidelines, unsupervised additions are prone to include erroneous information.
