Olivine—The Alteration Rock Star [PDF]
Olivine is the main component of the Earth’s upper mantle, on which our tectonic plates rest. As such, olivine has been studied since the dawn of geology and is regarded as the storyteller of the Earth’s interior. Its physical and chemical properties provide insight into its creation in magmas and its voyage through the upper mantle.

Sintering Behaviour of Waste Olivine and Olivine/Alumina Blends [PDF]
The sintering behaviour of several green compacts made with olivine or olivine/alumina powder blends has been examined. To this goal, powders were attrition milled, uniaxially pressed into specimens and air sintered at temperatures ranging from 1100 to 1300 °C.

Three water sites in upper mantle olivine and the role of titanium in the water weakening mechanism [PDF]
Infrared spectroscopy on synthetic olivines has established that there are at least four different mechanisms by which hydrogen is incorporated into the crystal structure.

Titanium and water-rich metamorphic olivine in high-pressure serpentinites from the Voltri Massif (Ligurian Alps, Italy): evidence for deep subduction of high-field strength and fluid-mobile elements [PDF]
Titanium- and water-rich metamorphic olivine (Fo 86–88) is reported from partially dehydrated serpentinites from the Voltri complex, Ligurian Alps. The rocks are composed of mostly antigorite and olivine in addition to magnetite, chlorite, clinopyroxene ...

Multiscale modeling of upper mantle plasticity: From single-crystal rheology to multiphase aggregate deformation [PDF]
We report a first application of an improved second-order (SO) viscoplastic self-consistent model for multiphase aggregates, applied to an olivine + diopside aggregate as analogue for a dry upper mantle peridotite deformed at 10 15 s 1 shear strain rate ...

Shear-Induced ringwoodite formation in the Martian shergottite Dar al Gani 670 [PDF]
Shock-produced melt veins in the Martian shergottite Dar al Gani 670 crosscut large olivine crystals. The upper part of one of these crystals appears to be sheared off and displaced along the shock vein.

Olivine-treated marine clay: An innovative CO2 sequestering landfill base liner material
This research investigates the development of an innovative landfill base liner material utilizing olivine-treated marine clay. The innovative refers to its ability to sequestrate any excess CO2 emission in the landfill which may then be used for its ...

Mineral reaction and deformation in Plagioclase-Olivine composites : an experimental study [PDF]
Deformation and metamorphism of rocks are fundamentally interrelated but the ways in which processes of reaction and deformation mutually influence each other are still poorly understood in natural rocks.
