The age and origin of the Vaasa migmatite complex revisited [PDF]
The origin of the Vaasa migmatite complex was studied by using whole-rock Sm-Nd and zircon Lu-Hf and U-Pb data in conjunction with whole-rock major and trace element geochemistry.

Study of Migmatization and Leucocrate granite formation processes in the Tuyserkan area, Hamedan
Introduction Partial melting is an appropriate correlation process between metamorphism and magmatism which plays a key role in the development of migmatites, granulites and S-type granites during crust evolution (Kriegsman, 2001; Alvarez-Valero and ...

Formation mechanism of the Vaasa Batholith in the Fennoscandian shield: Petrographic and geochemical constraints [PDF]
The ~1.88 Ga Vaasa Batholith in western Finland is a large granitoid area (8 000 km2) with gradational contacts against the garnet- and cordierite-bearing diatexite and metatexite migmatites of the Pohjanmaa Belt.

Intracratonic Palaeoproterozoic granitoids in northern Finland: Prolonged and episodic crustal melting events revealed by Nd isotopes and U-Pb ages on zircon [PDF]
Zircons from twelve Palaeoproterozoic granitoids from the Central Lapland Granitoid Complex (CLGC) and from the Hetta Complex (HC) in northern Finland were dated using the NORDSIM ion microprobe.

U-Pb zircon geochronology of selected Archaean migmatites in eastern Finland [PDF]
U-Pb SIMS data on eight samples (four mesosome-leucosome pairs) from migmatites in gneiss complexes are presented from the western part of the Archaean Karelian craton, eastern Finland. Most zircon grains in the mesosomes yield ages between 2.84 Ga and 2.

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.

Primary crustal melt compositions: Insights into the controls, mechanisms and timing of generation from kinetics experiments and melt inclusions [PDF]
We explore the controls, mechanisms and timing of generation of primary melts and their compositions, and show that the novel studies of melt inclusions in migmatites can provide important insights into the processes of crustal anatexis of a particular ...

U-Pn geochronology of deformed metagranites in central Sutherland, Scotland: evidence for widespread late Silurian metamorphism and ductile deformation of the Moine Supergroup during the Caledonian orogeny [PDF]
Within the Caledonides of central Sutherland, Scotland, the Neoproterozoic metasedimentary rocks of the Moine Supergroup record NW-directed D2 ductile thrusting and nappe assembly, accompanied by widespread tight-to-isoclinal folding and amphibolite ...
