Rift‐Related Low‐Pressure–High‐Temperature Granulite Facies Metamorphism Generates Widespread Peraluminous Crustal Melts: Evidence From the Early Jurassic Mexican Crust

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract High heat fluxes occurring in rift settings are expected to generate partially melted low‐pressure–high‐temperature granulites (LP–HTG). Therefore, studying these rocks can offer valuable insights into crustal reworking during extension. However, our interpretations are limited by the rarity of LP–HTG in the metamorphic record.

Apatites for Destruction: Reference Apatites from Morocco and Brazil for U-Pb Petrochronology and Nd and Sr Isotope Geochemistry

open access: yes, 2022
In situ apatite U-Pb petrochronology and Sr-Nd isotope geochemistry requires well-characterized and matrix-matched references materials (RMs), yet only a few suitable apatite RMs are currently available.

Multi‐Stage Growth of Kyanite in Migmatites Interpreted by Integrating Forward Thermodynamic Modelling and Trace Element Signature

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 43, Issue 4, Page 315-339, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Trace element zoning in kyanite can retain information about its growth history, particularly in anatectic metapelites. There, kyanite can grow (i) at sub‐solidus conditions through metamorphic reactions involving other aluminous phases as reactants, (ii) through muscovite dehydration melting reactions, and (iii) during cooling and melt ...

Petrochronology of High‐Pressure Veins Reveals the Evolution of Fluid Sources in Subducted Oceanic Crust (Rocciavrè Eclogites, W. Alps)

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 225-256, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The Rocciavrè massif is a large eclogitized ophiolitic fragment exposed in the Western Alps (Piemonte, Italy) exhibiting an almost complete sequence of the subducted Liguro‐Piemont lithosphere. Raman spectroscopy on carbonaceous material in metasediments from Rocciavrè and the juxtaposed Orsiera massif indicates maximum temperatures in the ...

Polyphase Metamorphism of the Northern Rae Craton (Baffin Island, Arctic Canada) and Trace Element Behaviour in Monazite: Insights From Phase Equilibria Modelling and Geochronology

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 287-314, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Integrated field mapping, phase equilibria modelling and in situ U–Pb monazite geochronology from the northern margin of the Rae craton on Baffin Island document three metamorphic events during the Neoarchean to the middle Paleoproterozoic.

Zircon Solubility, Metamict ZrSiO4 Replacement, and Hydrothermal Zircon Formation at Upper Crustal Pressures

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Stable and inert under most conditions, zircon can be dissolved and precipitated by aqueous fluids in the upper crust. Geochemical models using currently available thermodynamic properties for Zr aqueous species at 0.2 GPa predict that zircon solubility increases with temperature from 400 to 900°C in fluids saturated with quartz or baddeleyite.
