Ancient tin production: Slags from the Iron Age Carvalhelhos hillfort (NW Iberian Peninsula) [PDF]
Provenance and production of tin in the Ancient World has since long been a major topic of discussion among archaeologists. In Western Europe, where significant tin ore (cassiterite) deposits are known, only a few remains of ancient tin production, such ...

Constraining metamorphic dome exhumation and fault activity through hydrothermal monazite-(Ce) [PDF]
Abstract. Zoned monazite-(Ce) from Alpine fissures/clefts is used to gain new insights into the exhumation history of the Central Alpine Lepontine metamorphic dome, and timing of deformation along the Rhone-Simplon fault zone on the dome's western termination.

Early Devonian sinistral shearing recorded by retrograde monazite-(Ce) in Oscar II Land, Svalbard
Abstract The Southwestern Basement Province of Svalbard extends northward from Sørkapp Land in the south to Oscar II Land. In the north, the Müllerneset Formation characterized by polymetamorphosed Proterozoic sedimentary rocks crops out. In this study we used an integrated tectonic and petrochronological approach to gain an insight into

REE-bearing minerals in Drava river sediments, Slovenia, and their potential origin
Monazite and xenotime are major ore minerals for rare earth elements (REE), Y, and actinides, a powerful tool for radiometric dating and indicators of the geological genesis of the parent rock.

The effect of P2O5 on the viscosity of haplogranitic liquid [PDF]
The effect of P2O5 on the viscosity of a haplogranitic (K2O-Na2O-Al2O3-SiO2) liquid has been determined at 1 atm pressure in the temperature interval of 700 - 1650°C. Viscosity measurements of a haplogranite, haplogranite + 5.1 wt.% P2O5 and haplogranite

Zircon dissolution in a ductile shear zone, Monte Rosa granite gneiss, northern Italy [PDF]
The sizes, distributions and shapes of zircon grains within variably deformed granite gneiss from the western Alps have been studied. Zircon shows numerous indicators of a metamorphic response in both the host gneiss and a 5 cm wide continuous ductile ...

Speculations Linking Monazite Compositions to Origin: Llallagua Tin Ore Deposit (Bolivia)
Monazite [(Ce,Th)PO4] from the Llallagua tin ore deposit in Bolivia is characterized by low radiogenic element contents. Previously reported field evidence and mineral associations suggest the mineral formed via direct precipitation from hydrothermal ...
