Mineralogical and geochemical aspects of rare-earth elements behavior during metamorphism (on the example of the Upper Precambrian structural-material complexes of the Bashkir megaanticlinorium, South Urals)

open access: yesGeoresursy, 2020
The article provides new data on geochemistry and mineralogy of rare-earth elements (REE) in rocks of structural-material complexes of the Bashkir megaanticlinorium, which underwent metamorphic transformations of various nature: contact metamorphism ...

Synthesis of Monazite‐Borosilicate Glass Composites by the Ceramic Method

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ceramic Engineering &Science, Volume 8, Issue 4, July 2026.
A glass‐ceramic composite containing crystallites of La0.5Gd0.5PO4 (monazite) dispersed in a borosilicate glass matrix was synthesized using a one‐step ceramic synthesis method. ABSTRACT Glass‐ceramic composites are promising heterogeneous materials for the immobilization of high‐level nuclear waste.

Late Campanian (74–71 Ma) Arabia–Eastern Anatolia Collision and Its Geodynamic Implications

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The East Anatolian Plateau is a major collisional feature within the Tethyan realm formed as a late‐stage result of the collision between East Anatolia and the Arabian Platform. The timing of this collision is highly debated, with estimates from the Late Cretaceous to the Miocene.

Economic evaluation of thorium oxide production from monazite using alkaline fusion method

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2021
Monazite is a phosphate mineral that contains thorium (Th) and rare earth elements. The Th concentration in monazite can be as high as 500 ppm, and it has the potential to be used as fuel in the nuclear power system.

Quaternary Glacial Erosion of the Hohe Tauern, Eastern European Alps: Assessing the Resolution Potential of Low‐Temperature Thermochronology

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Low‐temperature thermochronology records rock cooling, which results from (generally erosion‐driven) exhumation and/or other processes that alter the geotherm. Apatite (U‐Th)/He (AHe) thermochronology can record landscape changes associated with km‐scale erosion and has previously been used to assess Quaternary glacial incision in large ...

Dynamic Deglacial Evolution of Interior Seaways and Ice Streams in the Weddell Sea Embayment

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Improving our understanding of Antarctic glacial dynamics is essential for accurately predicting ice sheet behavior and its contribution to global sea level rise under future climate scenarios. The Weddell Sea Embayment, which channels ice from East Antarctica, West Antarctica, and the Antarctic Peninsula into the Filchner‐Ronne Ice Shelf, is ...

U-Pb ISOTOPIC GEOCHRONOLOGY OF THE MONAZITE GNEISSES OF THE «ZELENOLEVADIVSKA SUITE» OF THE MIDDLE BUG REGION

open access: yesГеологія і корисні копалини Світового океану, 2022
On the right bank of the South Bug river valley, opposite the village of Zelena Levada crystalline rocks are observed in separate scattered rock outcrops, more than 1 km long along the river bed. A bundle of hypersthene-biotite and biotite plagiogneisses

Variable Sr Diffusion and Implications for Rb–Sr Biotite Geochronology

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 6, Page 417-439, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The rubidium–strontium (Rb–Sr) system has a long pedigree as a geochronological tool that relies on the application of an isochron approach. In particular, biotite contains strongly radiogenic Rb–Sr isotopes, and thus can yield meaningful crystallisation or cooling ages via this approach. However, the response of the Rb–Sr system in biotite to

Two metamorphic cycles recorded by monazite in eclogite-facies gneisses (Southern Armorican Massif, France): A Cambro-Ordovician continental crust involved in eo-Variscan subduction

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
We present U-Th/Pb data obtained for xenotime and monazite from the polycyclic eclogite-facies para- and ortho-gneisses of the Les Essarts Unit (Vendée, southern Armorican Massif, France), which have recorded an HT-LP cycle ending with a first ...
