Ultramafic xenoliths from the Bearpaw Mountains, Montana, USA: evidence for multiple metasomatic events in the lithospheric mantle beneath the Wyoming craton [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
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

Fate of wastewater nitrogen upon injection into a coastal saline groundwater system, Florida Keys, USA

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Despite advanced wastewater treatment, dilution by rainwater and mixing, and microbial modification, nitrogen nutrients derived from shallowly injected wastewater are detected in nearshore waters in the Florida Keys. Abstract Injection of treated wastewater into the shallow subsurface on islands and along coastlines is a common practice in areas like ...

MINERAL TRANSFORMATIONS OF HYALOCLASTITE DURING LITHOGENESIS IN MASSIVE SULFIDE BEARING REGIONS OF URALS [PDF]

open access: yesМинералогия, 2015
The features of the submarine transformations from primary hyaloclastites to oxide-ferruginous rocks of the Urals massive sulfide deposits are identified. These processes are accompanied by formation of smectite and Si-Fe phases transformed into chlorite-

The oxygen isotopic composition of water extracted from unequilibrated ordinary chondrites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The oxygen isotopic composition of water extracted from the unequilibrated ordinary chondrites Semarkona and Bishunpur reveals differences in alteration mineralogy and levels of isotopic enrichment – reflecting key parameters in the alteration ...

Mineralogical Characterization of Baptistina Asteroid Family: Implications for K/T Impactor Source

open access: yes, 2011
Bottke et al. (2007) linked the catastrophic formation of Baptistina Asteroid Family (BAF) to the K/T impact event. This linkage was based on dynamical and compositional evidence, which suggested the impactor had a composition similar to CM2 carbonaceous

Insights into the genesis of thick halite in the Kuqa Depression (Tarim Basin, China): New mineralogical, lithological and geochemical evidence

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Halite thickness in Mbr 2 of the Kumugeliemu can reach 1000 m. The thick halite is associated with sedimentary rock with shallow water fabrics. The thick halite was formed in a shallow‐sea water environment. The ‘Multiple transgression‐salt‐forming’ model was established.

Dust-grain processing in circumbinary discs around evolved binaries. The RV Tauri spectral twins RU Cen and AC Her [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Context: We study the structure and evolution of circumstellar discs around evolved binaries and their impact on the evolution of the central system. Aims: To study in detail the binary nature of RUCen and ACHer, as well as the structure and mineralogy ...

Late Pleistocene to Holocene sedimentation in the Great Blue Hole (Lighthouse Reef, Belize): Results from a 30 m long core

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
A 30 m long sedimentary succession at the bottom of the Belize Blue Hole represents terrestrial cenote (12.5–7.2 ka BP), restricted marine swamp (7.2–5.7 ka BP) and fully marine lagoonal phases (5.7–0 ka BP) on Lighthouse Reef carbonate platform. Post‐glacial and Holocene sea‐level rise largely controlled the sedimentological, faunal and floral changes
