Vertical profiling of shock attenuation at the Rochechouart impact structure, France
Abstract Rochechouart, south‐west France, is a complex impact structure. Here, we present the first report of shock barometry of quartz from what are likely parautochthonous basement units at depth, based on samples from the 2017 C.I.R.I.R drilling campaign. The crystallographic orientations of 725 sets of PDFs in 512 quartz grains in samples from four

Abstract The Tvären structure in southeastern Sweden has been listed as a confirmed marine‐target impact structure for decades. However, to date, no measurements and/or indexed data of planar deformation features in quartz grains from the structure have been published or any other unequivocal evidence of impact.

The influence of strontium content and sintering temperature on monazite stability [PDF]
This paper shows a simple way to synthesize a series of Ce1-xSrxPO4 ceramic materials using acetate solutions of Ce and Sr instead of nitrate which were used so far.

Abstract The framework of the Impact Cratering Committee (ICC) of the Meteoritical Society was approved in 2020, with the first committee members appointed in 2023. The ICC has a mandate to (1) approve, maintain, and update a database of confirmed terrestrial meteorite impact structures, (2) define and regularly update the criteria used for ...

For the past ten years, much effort has been expended by several research teams to develop an economic process for recovering thorium, rare earths and uranium from monazite sands. Recently, a process was developed at the Ames Laboratory which possessed many attractive features.

Clasts of albite‐porphyroblastic quartzofeldspathic schist, derived from the Otago Schist basement, occur within the Port Chalmers Breccia, a diatreme at the centre of the Dunedin stratovolcano, New Zealand. Schists have undergone varying degrees of replacement reactions (at temperatures of 300° to >500°C) producing hornfelses, with Ca‐ and K‐enriched ...

Background Monazite, a moderately common light rare earth element (LREE) and thorium phosphate mineral, has chemical, age, and isotopic characteristics that are useful in the investigation of the origin and evolution of crustal melts and fluid-rock ...

Abstract The India–Asia collision continuously loads the Tibetan Plateau (TP), driving its Cenozoic eastward growth. This process has caused extensive crustal deformation and a diverse magmatic response. Here, we report on newly identified 35−6.5 Ma granitoids from Kangding area in southeastern (SE) TP.

Due to its excellent chemical stability, irradiation resistance, and thermal stability, strontium zirconium phosphate (Sr0.5Zr2(PO4)3) could be used to immobilize fission product strontium (Sr).

Abstract The assembly and breakup of the supercontinent Rodinia set the stage for Earth system evolution through the Neoproterozoic Era. Laurentia, the central craton in Rodinia, lacks well‐dated paleomagnetic poles between ca. 990 Ma and 780 Ma. In this study, we develop new U‐Pb petrochronology and thermochronology data sets from zircon, garnet ...
