Monazite Microstructures and Their Interpretation in Petrochronology

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The phosphate mineral monazite (LREE,Y,Th,Ca,Si)PO4 occurs as an accessory phase in peraluminous granites and Ca-poor meta-psammopelites. Due to negligible common Pb and very low Pb diffusion rates at high temperatures, monazite has received increasing ...

The chemical composition and age of monazite and kularite from titanium ore of Pizhemskoye and Yarega deposits (Middle and Southern Timan)

open access: yesGeoresursy, 2020
A study on the typomorphic characteristics and age of the monazite the two giant titanium deposits of the Timan – Pizhemskoye and Yarega, which revealed differences in morphology in the species composition of the inclusions, the grain size, distribution ...

Zircon to monazite phase transition in CeVO4: X-ray diffraction and Raman-scattering measurements [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2011
X-ray diffraction and Raman-scattering measurements on cerium vanadate have been performed up to 12 and 16 GPa, respectively. Experiments reveal that at 5.3 GPa the onset of a pressure-induced irreversible phase transition from the zircon to the monazite

Location, Location, Location: Monazite Behaviour During UHT Metamorphism and Melt Crystallization [PDF]

open access: hybridJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 2, Page 158-175, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Monazite is a robust mineral for recording the suprasolidus evolution of migmatites and granulites. However, monazite commonly has diverse compositions and yields variable dates in a single sample; understanding the controls on monazite behaviour and composition during partial melting and melt crystallization are not always straightforward ...

Thorium zoning in monazite: A case study from the Ivrea–Verbano zone, NW Italy

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, 2022
Metamorphism and partial melting of the lower crust is commonly assumed to cause depletion in heat producing elements (HPEs; K, U, Th). In the deep crust, volumetrically subordinate metasedimentary layers, which are source to crustal granites (sensu lato)

Garnet, zircon, and monazite age and REE signatures in (ultra)high‐temperature and high‐pressure rocks: Examples from the Caledonides and the Pamir

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, 2022
Rare earth element (REE) signatures of high‐U/Pb and high‐Th/Pb accessory minerals are typically used to link their ages to specific petrological processes (‘petrochronology’)—most notably the growth or breakdown of garnet.

Colonization and bioweathering of monazite by Aspergillus niger: solubilization and precipitation of rare earth elements.

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, 2021
Geoactive fungi play a significant role in bioweathering of rock and mineral substrates. Monazite is a phosphate mineral containing the rare earth elements (REE) cerium, lanthanum and neodymium.

Tectonic Fabric, Geochemistry, and Zircon-Monazite Geochronology as Proxies to Date an Orogeny: Example of South Delhi Orogeny, NW India, and Implications for East Gondwana Tectonics

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
We have dated the South Delhi orogeny, Aravalli-Delhi Mobile Belt (ADMB), NW India, using the tectonic fabric, geochemistry, and zircon-monazite geochronology as the proxies. The South Delhi Terrane (SDT), a passive margin domain in the ADMB, consists of

Monazite Recovery by Magnetic and Gravity Separation of Medium Grade Zircon Concentrate from Senegalese Heavy Mineral Sands Deposit

open access: yesJournal of Minerals and Materials Characterization and Engineering, 2021
Gravity, magnetic and electrostatic separation methods allowed to obtain different titanium oxide concentrates (ilmenite, leucoxene, rutile) and different varieties of zircon concentrates (premium zircon, standard zircon, medium grade zircon standard ...

Evaluating preservation bias in the continental growth record against the monazite archive

open access: yesGeology, 2021
Most recent models of continental growth are based on large global compilations of detrital zircon ages, which preserve a distinctly episodic record of crust formation over billion-year timescales.
