Miarolitic cavities in rapakivi granite on Hästholmen, Loviisa, southeastern Finland [PDF]
Miarolitic cavities are described from drill cores taken from rapakivi granite on Hästholmen, an island about 80 km east of Helsinki. The distribution of cavities between different textural types of rapakivi seems to favour the equigranular medium to ...

We investigate the interrelation between the hydration of the lunar regolith and the mineral composition of the surface of the Moon with respect to the concentrations of plagioclase, TiO2 (highly correlated with the oxide mineral ilmenite), and Mg-spinel.

Partitioning of barium between coexisting K-feldspars and plagioclase in the Bushveld granites from the Zaaiplaats area, South Africa [PDF]
The barium contents of the coexisting K-feldspars and plagioclases in the Bushveld granites from the Zaaiplaats tin mine area were determined by electron microprobe analyses.

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Giant volcanic eruptions have the potential to overturn civilizations. Yet, the driving mechanism and timescale over which batholithic magma reservoirs transition from non‐eruptible crystal mush to mobile melt‐dominated stages and our capacity to detect ...

Petrology, geochemistry, source and tectonic setting of Malek Chah Ruii granitoid (East of Lut Block) [PDF]
The Malek Chah Rouii granitoid pluton is exposed within the Deh-Salm metamorphic complex in the eastern margin of the Lut zone. The studied granitoid with peraluminous and calc-alkaline nature is composed of tonalite, granodiorite, and granite (monzo ...

PETROGRAPHY AND MICROTEXTURAL CHARACTERISTICS OF GRANODIORITE FROM WASIMI, SOUTHWESTERN NIGERIA [PDF]
Rock samples of granodiorite from Wasimi were studied in detail to determine the minerals, mineral associations and the different micro-texture present in order to unravel the processes that were involved during the cooling of the magma.
