Evidence for silicate dissolution on Mars from the Nakhla meteorite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Veins containing carbonates, hydrous silicates and sulphates that occur within and between grains of augite and olivine in the Nakhla meteorite are good evidence for the former presence of liquid water in the Martian crust.

Controlled Cooling‐Rate Experiments on Olivine‐Hosted Melt Inclusions: Chemical Diffusion and Quantification of Eruptive Cooling Rates on Hawaii and Mars

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Controlled cooling‐rate experiments were conducted on olivine‐hosted melt inclusions to characterize the development of compositional zoning observed in natural inclusions.

Variable initial zoning profiles and Fe-Mg diffusion coefficients for olivine: Effects on cooling rates calculated by diffusion modeling in a pallasite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
P(論文)Because chemical zoning of minerals contains information about the thermal history of the parent body, the cooling rate or burial depth can be calculated by solving the diffusion equation. Several factors influence the results of these calculations.

Unique zoned olivines from an ultrabasic—Basic massif in the Noril’sk disitrict [PDF]

open access: yesDoklady Earth Sciences, 2009
The specifics of the morphology, internal structure, and composition of olivine, one of the major rock forming minerals of ultrabasic and basic rocks, contains valuable information on the conditions of its formation and are widely used in petrology [11, 8, 3, 7, 12]. One of its important characteristics is zoning, which is most pronounced in lunar [8]

Multi-Stage Magma Evolution in Intra-Plate Volcanoes: Insights From Combined in situ Li and Mg–Fe Chemical and Isotopic Diffusion Profiles in Olivine

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Understanding the timescales of magma evolution and ascent is essential for interpreting geophysical monitoring signals from active volcanoes. In this study, we explore the potential of diffusion-driven Li concentration and isotope zoning profiles ...

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]

open access: yes, 2014
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 ...

Petrography, Geochemistry and tectonomagmatic setting of Tertiary volcanic rocks in Ebrahim abad area(southwest of Gazik), Southern Khorasan [PDF]

open access: yesپترولوژی, 2019
Volcanic rocks are observed in Ebrahim abad area, southwest of Gazik and in southern Khorasan province that located in northern part of the Sistan suture zone. The studied lavas consist of basaltic andesite, andesite and dacite with Eocene to Miocene age

Early-Stage Melt-Rock Reaction in a Cooling Crystal Mush Beneath a Slow-Spreading Mid-Ocean Ridge (IODP Hole U1473A, Atlantis Bank, Southwest Indian Ridge)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Microtextural and chemical evidence from gabbros indicates that melts may react with the crystal framework as they migrate through crystal mushes beneath mid-ocean ridges; however, the importance of this process for the compositional evolution of ...

The Role of Crystal Accumulation and Cumulate Remobilization in the Formation of Large Zoned Ignimbrites: Insights From the Aso-4 Caldera-forming Eruption, Kyushu, Japan

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Aso-4 caldera-forming event (86.4 ± 1.1 ka, VEI-8) is the second largest volcanic eruption Earth experienced in the past 100 ka. The ignimbrite sheets produced during this event are some of the first ever described compositionally zoned pyroclastic ...

Convective activity in a Martian magma chamber recorded by P‐zoning in Tissint olivine [PDF]

open access: yesMeteoritics & Planetary Science, 2020
AbstractThe Tissint Martian meteorite is an unusual depleted olivine‐phyric shergottite, reportedly sourced from a mantle‐derived melt within a deep magma chamber. Here, we report major and trace element data for Tissint olivine and pyroxene, and use these data to provide new insights into the dynamics of the Tissint magma chamber.
