REE-bearing minerals in the Rapakavi Grante, Southern Finland

open access: yesOpen Geosciences, 2015
The studied rock samples belong to the classic1615–1645 Ma Wiborg Rapakivi granite terrane of southeasternFinland. Geochemical studies show that the rapakivigranites and associated rocks form metaluminousto peraluminous A-type granites and plot in the ...

Interpreting granulite facies events through rare earth element partitioning arrays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The use of rare earth element (REE) partition coefficients is an increasingly common tool in metamorphic studies, linking the growth or modification of accessory mineral geochronometers to the bulk silicate mineral assemblage.

Mineralogy of Soil‐Free Bare Crusts on Native Dryland Plant Habitats in Mackenzie Basin, South Island, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
Late Cenozoic silty and sandy sediments in the semi‐arid Mackenzie basin have been eroded and redeposited almost entirely from nearby Mesozoic greywacke basement. Fine (commonly micron scale) phyllosilicate flakes, including clays, are randomly distributed and randomly oriented, and the sediments are porous.

Facile preparation of Ce enhanced vinyl-functionalized silica aerogel-like monoliths for selective separation of radioactive thorium from monazite

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2020
Thorium (Th) is an associated ore of rare earth metals that is radioactive and harmful to the environment, but it is also a potential nuclear fuel replacement for uranium.

Mineralogy and Formation of a Platinum Placer Deposit, Southern South Island, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
Placer platinum group minerals (PGM), with subordinate detrital gold, have been concentrated in Pleistocene coastal sands near the present Foveaux Strait shoreline. This study characterises the PGM in what is New Zealand's only identified PGM deposit.

The Paleo‐Tethys Suture Zone in the Afghan Hindu Kush‒Pamir: Geo‐Thermochronology, Geochemistry, Tectonics

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract In the Afghan Hindu Kush, the 223–209 Ma (≤800°C) Salang batholith is part of the Silk‐Road magmatic arc that was built on ∼40‐km‐thick Turan‐Karakum block continental crust. The batholith constitutes the hanging wall of the Herat‐Panjshir‐Badakhshan—the Paleo‐Tethys—suture zone, vestige of the subducted Paleozoic‐early Mesozoic Paleo‐Tethys ...
