Alkali‐halogen metasomatism of the CM carbonaceous chondrites
Meteorite Hills (MET) 01075 is unique among the CM carbonaceous chondrites in containing the feldspathoid mineral sodalite, and hence it may provide valuable evidence for a nebular or parent body process that has not been previously recorded by this ...

Metasomatites of medium and mafic composition from Nyaschevo massif (Ilmeny Mauntains, South Urals)
The results of the study of mediosiliceous and mafic metasomatites located in ultramafic and mafic rocks Nyaschevo massif presents in the paper. The texthural and structural features of these rocks allow to attribute them to tectonites - protomylonites and

The Temperature and Composition of the Mantle Sources of Martian Basalts
The composition of basaltic melts in equilibrium with the mantle can be determined for several Martian meteorites and in‐situ rover analyses. We use the melting model MAGMARS to reproduce these primary melts and estimate the bulk composition and ...

Accessory minerals: a provenancing tool for steatite quarries
Abstract Steatite has been a widely traded material across a range of archaeological contexts. Yet, challenges inherent to determining its provenance limits our understanding of the networks and mechanisms of its exchange. We present a robust new accessory mineral provenancing “fingerprint” method based their specific growth history.

The central issues in petrology have remained remarkably unchanged in the last 50 years. In igneous petrology, the focus is on understanding the nature and cause of diversity in igneous rocks: on identifying primary magma types and constraints on the ...

Abstract The subduction of the Chile Ridge beneath South America beginning 12–16 Myr ago opened a gap in the subducting slab beneath southern Patagonia, which migrated northward and is located today at 46°S. Geodynamic processes associated with the slab window are poorly understood.

Phanerozoic Onset of Massive Continental Weathering
Abstract Continental weathering acts as a nexus of global biogeochemical cycles yet its long‐term evolution remains unclear. Here we show that continental weathering may not have operated on a massive scale until the early Paleozoic based on a large‐number data compilation of mudstone geochemistry.

Two-sided asymmetric subduction; implications for tectonomagmatic and metallogenic evolution of the Lut Block, Eastern Iran [PDF]
West directed subduction zones show common characteristics, such as low structural elevation, deep trench, steep slab and a conjugate back-arc basin that are opposite to those of the east directed subduction zones.

Abstract The Middle Miocene Climatic Optimum (MMCO, ca. 17.0 to 14.7 million years (Myr) ago) is a period of global warming that could be relevant to future projections for 2100 AD. However, the mechanism of atmospheric CO2 removal during this interval, particularly, whether silicate weathering is critically involved, is currently unclear.
