The Tukhum granitic pluton is a part of the Mesozoic composite Khentei batholith of north-central Mongolia, which belongs to the Central Asian Orogenic Belt. The shallow-seated pluton (∼900 km2) is made up of two distinct biotite granite intrusions dated

Our petrochemical studies on ~1.2 Ga granitoids of the Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa, do not suggest any property similar to Phanerozoic‐style subduction‐related granitoids. Plot of Kotongweni Tonalite in Y versus Sr diagram (after Moyen 2011), note that most samples have Sr/Y < 50.

Stardust Mine: A 2024 gabbroic shergottite from Arizona, USA
Abstract This study provides an initial characterization of Stardust Mine, a fresh gabbroic enriched shergottite collected in Arizona, USA, in September 2024 and is the first Martian meteorite to be unequivocably collected on US soil. Analysis was conducted on the type specimen and finds that Stardust Mine is composed of equal proportions of pyroxene ...

Potassium isotopic compositions and exposure ages of evolved and silica‐rich achondrites
Abstract Some of the oldest igneous rocks in the Solar System include evolved and silica‐rich achondrites that originate from parent bodies less than 1000 km in diameter, referred to as planetesimals. While Earth was initially in a molten state and required continental crust formation and plate tectonics to generate andesite bulk compositions, evolved ...

Impact provenance and age of a unique basalt found in Apollo 12 regolith
Abstract Basaltic sample 12032,366‐18 from the Apollo 12 landing site is distinct among basalts collected at this site, other Apollo landing sites, and lunar meteorites in terms of its age, bulk rock composition, and isotopic composition. We present new Pb isotopic data obtained by in situ Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry on multiple mineral phases in ...

Petrogenisis of Mafic- intermediate Magmatism, East of Sanandaj; A New approach with careful monitoring of geochemical evidences [PDF]
The East Sanadaj magmatic rocks of the northern Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone, part of Zagros Orogen, comprise several intrusive bodies that were generated during northeastward subduction of Neo-tethys beneath the Iranian sector of the Eurasian plate.
