Mineral associations in the rocks and metamorphism conditions of the Kandalaksha gabbro-anorthosite massif (Kola Peninsula)

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2016
The composition of mineral associations was studied in the main varieties of the rocks within the metamorphosed Kandalaksha gabbro-anorthosite massif in the southern part of the Kola Peninsula.

Location, Location, Location: Monazite Behaviour During UHT Metamorphism and Melt Crystallization

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monazite is a robust mineral for recording the suprasolidus evolution of migmatites and granulites. However, monazite commonly has diverse compositions and yields variable dates in a single sample; understanding the controls on monazite behaviour and composition during partial melting and melt crystallization are not always straightforward ...

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 ...

New knowledge about shock events that affected the L‐chondrite parent body from two heavily shocked L6 meteorite finds

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We report new results from a study of shock‐related features in the L6 ordinary chondrites Northwest Africa (NWA) 4672 and NWA 12841. Our observations confirm the occurrence of eight high‐pressure (HP) minerals in each meteorite, namely, ringwoodite, majorite, akimotoite, wadsleyite, albitic jadeite, lingunite, tuite, and xieite.

Determining impact angle from the spatial distribution of shock metamorphism: A case study of the Gosses Bluff (Tnorala) impact structure, Australia

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The majority of planetary impacts occur at oblique angles. Impact structures on Earth are commonly eroded or buried, rendering the identification of the direction and angle of impact—using methods such as asymmetries in ejecta distribution, surface topographic expression, central uplift structure, and geophysical anomalies—challenging.
