Rubidium-rich feldspars and associated minerals from the Luolamäki pegmatite, Somero, Finland [PDF]
Rubidium feldspar occurs near the core zone of the highly fractionated petalite-subtype Luolamäki granitic pegmatite in intimate intergrowth with other feldspars which are part of a characteristic sequence of alteration of pollucite.

Near vein metasomatism along propylitic veins in the Baksa Gneiss Complex, Pannonian Basin, Hungary
In many parts of the metapelitic (gneiss, mica schist) rock section of the Baksa Complex, significant wall-rock alteration is observable along the Ca-Al silicate veins, which show a di → ep ± czo →sp → ab ± kfs → chl → adu → prh → py → cal mineral ...

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.

Metamorphic and metasomatic evolution of the Western Domain of the Karagwe-Ankole Belt (Central Africa) [PDF]
The tectonometamorphic evolution of the Western Domain of the Karagwe-Ankole Belt, containing widespread granite-related W-Nb-Ta-Sn mineralization in pegmatites and hydrothermal quartz veins of Early Neoproterozoic age, is largely unknown.

The lithospheric mantle and lower crust-mantle relationships under Scotland: a xenolithic perspective [PDF]
In the British Isles the majority of volcanic rocks containing upper mantle and lower crustal xenoliths occur in Scotland. Most of the occurrences are of Carboniferous–Permian age.

Mineralogy and Genesis of Joveinan Iron Skarn (Cenozoic Magmatic Arc, North of Isfahan) [PDF]
Joveinan marbles and skarns are located 5 km NE of Ghohrood and 140 km NW ofIsfahan in the *central part of Urumieh- Dokhtar magmatic arc. Intrusion of Ghohroodgranitoid into the Cretaceous carbonate rocks caused the contact metamorphism andformation of ...

In ordinary chondrites (OCs), feldspar is present both in chondrules as a primary, igneous phase, and as a secondary phasethat results from crystallization of chondrule mesostasis glass during thermal metamorphism. To further understand thechemical and physical conditions prevailing during thermal metamorphism in OCs, we conducted a study of feldspar ...

Electron Microprobe Analysis of Biotite with Reequilibration Texture in Altered Trachyte
BACKGROUND The chemical composition of biotite contains important genetic information. The in-situ analyses of biotite with metasomatic texture can reflect the migration of the elements during the metasomatic alteration, and provide mineralogical ...
