Weakening of Peridotite Sheared at Hydrothermal Conditions

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
We conducted triaxial friction tests at hydrothermal conditions (25°C–350°C) on gouges of peridotite and its principal mineral constituents olivine and orthopyroxene. Pore‐fluid chemistry was varied by the use of peridotite, granite, or quartzite driving

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 ...

Mantle rock exposures at oceanic core complexes along mid-ocean ridges

open access: yesGeologos, 2015
The mantle is the most voluminous part of the Earth. However, mantle petrologists usually have to rely on indirect geophysical methods or on material found ex situ. In this review paper, we point out the in-situ existence of oceanic core complexes (OCCs),

Trace element geochemistry of peridotites from the Izu-Bonin-Mariana Forearc, Leg 125

open access: yes, 1992
Trace element analyses (first-series transition elements, Ti, Rb, Sr, Zr, Y, Nb, and REE) were carried out on whole rocks and minerals from 10 peridotite samples from both Conical Seamount in the Mariana forearc and Torishima Forearc Seamount in the Izu ...

Determination of Rare Earth Elements in Peridotite by Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry after Alkali Fusion and Mg(OH)2 and Fe(OH)3 Coprecipitation

open access: yesYankuang ceshi, 2017
Characteristics of REEs in peridotite is significant for studying petrogenesis and magmatic processes. Due to the serious interference of matrix elements such as Mg and Fe, it is difficult to determine the low contents of REEs in peridotite (∑REEs=0.1-1 ...

Genesis of pyroxenite veins in supra-subduction zone peridotites: Evidence from petrography and mineral composition of Egiingol massif (Northern Mongolia)

open access: yesChina Geology, 2020
: Swarms of orthopyroxenite and websterite veins are found within Egiingol residual SSZ peridotite massif of Dzhida terrain (Central Asian Orogenic Belt, Northern Mongolia).

Geochemical Consequences of Melt Percolation: The Upper Mantle as a Chromatographic Column [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
As magmas rise toward the surface, they traverse regions of the mantle and crust with which they are not in equilibrium; to the extent that time and the intimacy of their physical contact permit, the melts and country rocks will interact chemically. We

Decoding Metamorphic Nanodiamonds Formation Through Their Internal Structures

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metamorphic diamonds offer insights into Earth's evolution, modulating the global carbon cycle through subduction into the mantle and exhumation. However, the formation and internal structure of minute diamonds remain poorly understood. Here, we study the internal structures of diamond‐bearing inclusions from the Eastern Alps using state‐of ...

Petrology, Geochemical Characteristics, Tectonic Setting, and Implications for Chromite and PGE Mineralization of the Hongshishan Alaskan-Type Complex in the Beishan Orogenic Collage, North West China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Hongshishan mafic-ultramafic complex is situated in the north of the Beishan orogenic collage and the southern part of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt.

Very high-pressure orogenic garnet peridotites [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
Mantle-derived garnet peridotites are a minor component in many very high-pressure metamorphic terranes that formed during continental subduction and collision. Some of these mantle rocks contain trace amounts of zircon and micrometer-sized inclusions.
