Archean granitoids: classification, petrology, geochemistry and origin
Special Publications, 2019This paper describes the petrology, geochemistry and petrogenesis of Archean granitoids. Archean granites define a continuum of compositions between several end members: (i) magmas that originated by partial melting of a range of crustal sources, from ...

What is a Kimberlite? Petrology and Mineralogy of Hypabyssal Kimberlites
, 2019Hypabyssal kimberlites are subvolcanic intrusive rocks crystallised from mantle-derived magmas poor in SiO2 and rich in CO2 and H2O. They are complex, hybrid rocks containing significant amounts of mantle-derived fragments, primarily olivine with rare ...

An overview of the petrography and petrology of particles from aggregate sample from asteroid Bennu
Meteoritics & Planetary ScienceThe OSIRIS‐REx mission returned a sample of regolith from the carbonaceous asteroid Bennu in September 2023. We present preliminary in situ investigations of the petrology and petrography of selected particles ranging in size from 0.5 to 3 mm.

Reviews of Geophysics, 1983
Continued advances in thermodynamic models of mineral and fluid equilibrium and in the kinetics of mineral reactions have made metamorphic petrology a quantitative science. Thermometers and barometers for many rocks are accurate enough to locate the origin of the rocks in the crust and mantle, and the development of kinetic models promises to enable ...
