Thermoluminescence Properties of Plagioclase Mineral and Modelling of TL Glow Curves with Artificial Neural Networks

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The thermoluminescence (TL) method is one of the most widely used techniques in various studies, including dosimetric applications, dating of archaeological and geological materials, luminescence spectroscopy of certain insulating or semiconducting ...

Sedimentology of silica granules and haematite in the 3.47 Ga Antarctic Creek Member, Mount Ada Basalt, Western Australia

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Paleoarchean Antarctic Creek Member of the Mount Ada Basalt, Eastern Pilbara Terrane, Western Australia, includes beds of jasper and white chert composed of sand‐sized silica granules that often contain or are mixed with silt‐sized particles of haematite.

Ductile Extrusion Triggered by Continental Collision in NE Brazil

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Borborema Province in northeastern Brazil hosts one of the world's largest strike‐slip shear zone networks, active during the late Neoproterozoic assembly of West Gondwana. Whether these shear zones initiated during active continental collision or as a post‐orogenic response to far‐field stresses remains debated.

Emergence of Continents Stabilized the Bioavailability of Boron

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Boron is an essential element for the development of life on Earth; borates stabilize ribose in prebiotic reactions and facilitate metabolism in higher plants. There is, however, a relatively narrow surface boron concentration range over which borates stabilize and serve as a micronutrient rather than a toxin.

Mechanical processess affecting differentiation of protolunar material [PDF]

open access: yes
Mechanisms prior to lunar formation are sought to account for the loss of volatiles, the depletion of iron, and the enrichment of plagioclase. Some of the same mechanisms are necessary to account for achondritic, stony-iron, and iron meteorites ...

Trace element composition of silicate minerals from Kunashak Meteorite (L6)

open access: yesЗаписки Горного института
Major (EPMA) and trace (SIMS) element geochemistry in the silicate minerals (olivine, pyroxene and plagioclase) of Kunashak equilibrated ordinary chondrite (L6) is described. No variations in the major element concentrations of the silicate minerals have

Plagioclase Zoning and Sr Isotopes Constrain Mush–Magma Mixing in the Late Triassic Xiuyan Granitic Pluton, East China

open access: yesGeosciences
Mafic microgranular enclaves (MMEs) are widespread in granitic plutons and provide valuable insights into mush–magma mixing processes in crustal magma reservoirs.

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.
