ABSTRACT Zircon is a common, highly refractory accessory mineral found in sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks that forms through various processes (e.g., magmatic, hydrothermal, metamorphic growth and recrystallization). Trace element compositions of detrital zircon have been widely applied to understanding tectonic processes and continental ...

Pegmatite dikes are important prospecting indicators for rare-metal deposits, whereas traditional methods for pegmatite dike identification are constrained by the limited capability of human visual interpretation to capture information from remote ...

Nowadays, there has significantly increased the interest of industry in rare metal mineralization in pegmatites, which determines their importance as raw materials for “critical elements” Ta, Nb, Li, Be, Sn, Y, TR, etc., and thus there is a need to re ...

Middle Triassic turbidites in the Youjiang Basin were chiefly derived from a Late Palaeozoic continental arc along the southeastern South China Block, as revealed by detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology and tourmaline geochemistry, supporting a tectonic model driven by Paleo‐Pacific subduction rather than Paleo‐Tethyan closure.

Do Pegmatites Crystallise Fast? A Perspective from Petrologically-Constrained Isotopic Dating
Most recent studies consider the formation of individual pegmatite bodies to be a fast process with estimated crystal growth rates reaching a walloping 10 m/day. This opinion is presumably underpinned by the traditional way of thinking of them as the end

Key Points Measurement of 86Sr at count rates < 1500 cps can result in statistical bias. Non‐linear signals in analogue detection mode (e.g., Rb) present a challenge for accurately dating high 87Rb/86Sr mica (> 1000). Accounting for these considerations, high 87Rb/86Sr mica are dated here with accuracies of ∼ 1%.

A new occurrence of samuelsonite in the Buranga Pegmatite, Rwanda [PDF]
A new occurrence of the rare mineral species, samuelsonite, is reported from the Buranga pegmatite, Rwanda, in close association with gatumbaite and burangaite, as aggregates of bladed crystals imbedded in trolleite and in bertossaite.
