Dense hydrous silica carrying water to the deep Earth and promotion of oxygen fugacity heterogeneity

open access: yesMatter and Radiation at Extremes, 2022
Water has remarkable effects on the properties of mantle rocks, but, owing to the high temperatures in the mantle, uncertainties remain about how and how much water is transported into the deep Earth.

Variable Sr Diffusion and Implications for Rb–Sr Biotite Geochronology

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
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

Thermodynamic Modeling of CO2-N2-O2-Brine-Carbonates in Conditions from Surface to High Temperature and Pressure

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
Nitrogen (N2) and oxygen (O2) are important impurities obtained from carbon dioxide (CO2) capture procedures. Thermodynamic modeling of CO2-N2-O2-brine-minerals is important work for understanding the geochemical change of CO2 geologic storage with ...

A review of volatiles in the Martian interior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Multiple observations from missions to Mars have revealed compelling evidence for a volatile-rich Martian crust. A leading theory contends that eruption of basaltic magmas was the ultimate mechanism of transfer of volatiles from the mantle toward the ...

Constraining Ore-Forming Processes Using Magnetite-Titanomagnetite Chemistry: A Case Study of the Mamuniyeh Cu Mineralization System, Urumieh-Dokhtar Magmatic Arc

open access: yesJournal of Economic Geology
The low-sulfidation epithermal copper mineralization in the Mamouniyeh area occurs as silica-sulfide-oxide veins hosted by monzonitic, gabbroic intrusions, and andesite.

Oxygen fugacity of Alto Paranaíba kimberlites and diamond instability: Três Ranchos IV and Limeira I intrusions

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Geology, 2020
Oxygen fugacity (ƒO2) conditions were established for Três Ranchos IV (TR-IV, diamond-bearing) and Limeira I (LM-I, barren) kimberlite intrusions, in Alto Paranaíba Alkaline Province, to constrain a possible correlation between fO2 and diamond ...

Redox species and oxygen fugacity of slab-derived fluids: Implications for mantle oxidation and deep carbon-sulfur cycling

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The generation and migration of slab-derived fluids modulate subduction zone seismicity, arc magmatism, and deep volatile cycling. However, the redox species and oxygen fugacity (fO2) (hereafter expressed as log units relative to the fayalite–magnetite ...

Mechanisms and Geochemical Models of Core Formation

open access: yes, 2015
The formation of the Earth's core is a consequence of planetary accretion and processes in the Earth's interior. The mechanical process of planetary differentiation is likely to occur in large, if not global, magma oceans created by the collisions of ...

Petrogenesis, Redox State, and Mineralization Potential of Triassic Granitoids in the Mengshan District, South China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Mengshan district is located in the eastern segment of the Jiangnan Orogen in South China. Multi-phase intrusions were emplaced in this district, with the medium-grained porphyritic biotite granite and its marginal phase (fine-grained porphyritic ...
