Abstract Magnetotelluric (MT) surveys reveal high electrical conductivity anomalies along major trans‐lithospheric shear zones. Given that trans‐lithospheric shear zones are proposed conduits for deep‐Earth volatiles, we employ molecular dynamics simulations to quantify H+ diffusivity and electrical conductivity at olivine grain boundaries.

Tracing Continental Basalt Sources and Mantle Processes Using Fe Stable Isotopes
Abstract Iron (Fe) isotopes have emerged as powerful tracers of mantle source heterogeneity and melting processes, yet the mechanisms producing heavy Fe isotope signatures (high δ57Fe values) in intraplate basalts remain debated. Competing interpretations include partial melting of recycled pyroxenite domains versus carbonate‐induced oxidation of a ...

Vanadium Isotopic Compositions of the High‐3He/4He Baffin Island Lavas
Abstract The isotopic composition of vanadium (V) in hotspot lavas provides new insight into the source of deep mantle heterogeneities. We measured V isotopic compositions in Paleogene Baffin Island lavas, which erupted above the Iceland plume head, to constrain the mantle plume source. These lavas have V isotopic compositions that are lighter (−0.96 ±

Phlogopite-Olivine Nephelinites Erupted During Early Stage Rifting, North Tanzanian Divergence
The North Tanzanian Divergence (NTD, eastern branch of the East African Rift) corresponds to an early stage of continental breakup. In the southern NTD, two quaternary volcanoes of the Manyara-Balangida rift (Labait, Kwaraha) have erupted primary ...

Abstract The Neogene mineralized region of the Colline Metallifere in southern Tuscany (Italy) provides a natural laboratory to investigate feedback between fluid–rock interaction, structurally controlled fluid flow, and hydrothermal ore mineralization.

Abstract The tectonic evolution of the northern margin of the North China Craton (NCC) remains controversial. In this study, we obtained zircon U–Pb ages, geochemical data, and Sr–Nd isotopic data for volcanic rocks, and detrital zircon ages for sedimentary rocks from the Yufutun, Tongqigou, and Benxi formations in central‐southern Jilin Province, NE ...

Highly Enriched and Heterogeneous Mantle Signals Recorded in Mantle Pyroxenite Veins
Abstract The Earth's mantle is inherently heterogeneous, reflecting ongoing mantle depletion and crustal recycling driven by plate tectonics. Radiogenic isotopes in oceanic basalts are commonly used to characterize mantle reservoirs, but the full chemical diversity of mantle‐derived melts may be obscured by magma mixing during melt transport and ...

ABSTRACT The processes involved during subduction initiation (SI) remain poorly constrained, in part due to the rarity of geological archives. Ophiolites and their underlying metamorphic soles are thought to form during subduction zone infancy and may thus provide critical constraints. Metamorphic soles are derived from oceanic crust of the lower plate

Abstract Serpentinite plays a major role in the geodynamics of subduction zones. However, the processes by which serpentinite is incorporated into accretionary complexes, and the extent to which it interacts chemically and physically with accretionary lithologies, remain unclear.
