Monazite Microstructures and Their Interpretation in Petrochronology
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 absence of metamictisation in natural monazite [PDF]
AbstractThe actinide-containing mineral monazite–(Ce) is a common accessory rock component that bears petrogenetic information, is widely used in geochronology and thermochronology, and is considered as potential host material for immobilisation of radioactive waste.

A short-duration pulse of ductile normal shear on the outer South Tibetan detachment in Bhutan : alternating channel flow and critical taper mechanics of the eastern Himalaya [PDF]
In easternmost Bhutan the South Tibetan detachment (STD) is a ductile shear zone that juxtaposes the Radi (or Sakteng) klippe of the Tethyan Sedimentary Series from underlying high-grade Greater Himalayan rocks.

Radiological assessment of different monazite grades after mechanical separation from black sand
In Egyptian black sands, monazite is a precious mineral characterized by its composition, which includes crucial constituents such as thorium, trace amounts of uranium, and rare earth elements. It is essential to evaluate and quantify the extent of gamma-

New monazite U-Pb age constraints on the evolution of the Paleoproterozoic Vaasa granitoid batholith, western Finland [PDF]
The Vaasa batholith, western Finland, is a large, peraluminous granitoid pluton that crystallized at 1.88–1.87 Ga during the culmination of the Svecofennian orogeny.
