Explores the behavior of carbon in minerals, melts, and fluids under extreme conditions
Carbon trapped in diamonds and carbonate-bearing rocks in subduction zones are examples of the continuing exchange of substantial carbon ...

Fluid‐rock interaction in ultramafic rocks considerably affects the chemical and isotopic composition of the oceanic lithosphere. We present a geochemical and petrological study of serpentinites and ophicalcites of the Northern Apennine ophiolite, Italy.

Infiltration metasomatism of the Allende coarse-grained calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions
We report on the mineralogy, petrography, and O and Al-Mg isotopic systematics of secondary mineralization in the metasomatically altered igneous Ca,Al-rich inclusions (CAIs) [compact type A (CTA), B1, B2, forsterite-bearing B (FoB), and C] from the CV3 ...

Ultramafic xenoliths from the Bearpaw Mountains, Montana, USA: evidence for multiple metasomatic events in the lithospheric mantle beneath the Wyoming craton [PDF]
Ultramafic xenoliths in Eocene minettes of the Bearpaw Mountains volcanic field (Montana, USA), derived from the lower lithosphere of the Wyoming craton, can be divided based on textural criteria into tectonite and cumulate groups. The tectonites consist

Hydrothermal alteration in the lower part of an early Proterozoic greenstone complex at Palovaara, Enontekiö, northwestern Finland [PDF]
The lower part of the early Proterozoic greenstone complex at Palovaara, northwestern Finnish Lapland, comprises a quartzite formation overlain by intermediate and felsic tuffs and tuffites with some lava flows, mostly intermediate in chemical ...

Palaeoproterozoic prograde metasomatic-metamorphic overprint zones in Archean tonalitic gneisses, eastern Finland [PDF]
Several occurrences of coarse-grained kyanite rocks are exposed in the Archaean area of eastern Finland in zones trending predominantly northwest-southeast that crosscut all the Archaean structures and, locally, the Palaeoproterozoic metadiabase dykes ...

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.
