Replacement of Ores Recorded by Textures and Chemical Compositions of Sphalerite: An Example From the Furutobe Kuroko Deposit, Akita, Japan

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Coupled dissolution‐reprecipitation of early formed Cd‐, Fe‐, Ag‐ and Sb‐poor sphalerite through interaction with high‐temperature and high‐sulphur fugacity Cu‐rich fluids, responsible for the formation of the yellow ores, resulted in the formation of Cd‐, Fe‐, Ag‐ and Sb‐rich, heavily chalcopyrite‐diseased sphalerite and enrichment of critical metals ...

Rapid caldera subsidence and fluctuating eruption dynamics: the lithostratigraphy and structure of the Loch Bà Caldera, Isle of Mull, NW Scotland

open access: yesVolcanica
Caldera-forming eruptions represent extremely hazardous events. The Loch Bà Caldera on the Isle of Mull, NW Scotland, preserves an ~120 m thick sequence of Palaeogene silicic pyroclastic rocks and collapse breccias.

Geomorphological Classification of Monogenetic Volcanoes and Its Implication to Tectonic Stress Orientation in the Middle Atlas Volcanic Field (Morocco)

open access: yesLand, 2022
The Middle Atlas Volcanic Field (MAVF) covers an area of 1500 km2, with a total erupted volume of solid products (e.g., Dense Rock Equivalent or DRE) estimated to be more than 80 km3.

Geochemistry and Geochronology of Magmatic Rocks in Southwestern and Northeastern Cambodia: Implications for the Tectonic Evolution and Metallogenesis of the Loei Fold Belt

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
The composition of intrusive rocks suggests that the magma was likely generated in a subduction‐related setting. The arc crustal thickness in the Phnom Sro Ngam and Halo Prospects was probably < 40 km during emplacement. Zircon U–Pb age range indicates a correlation with Loei Fold Belt magmatic activity.

"Hot and sticky" and "cold and damp" pyroclastic eruptions, and their relationship with topography: valley- and lake-filling ignimbrites, Ardnamurchan, NW Scotland

open access: yesVolcanica
Pyroclastic density currents are complex mixtures of rock, ash and gas and represent significant hazards at many active volcanoes worldwide. Ignimbrites are the deposits of pyroclastic density currents and can be used to record the eruption dynamics and ...

A Reassessment of Petrochemistry of ~1.2 Ga Tonalitic Rocks of the Northern Tugela Terrane, Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa: Further Constraints on the Evolution of This Belt

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
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.

A rhinocerotid skull cooked-to-death in a 9.2 Ma-old ignimbrite flow of Turkey. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Preservation of fossil vertebrates in volcanic rocks is extremely rare. An articulated skull (cranium and mandible) of a rhinoceros was found in a 9.2±0.1 Ma-old ignimbrite of Cappadocia, Central Turkey.

Simply pyroclastic currents

open access: yes, 2017
Gravity-driven, ground-hugging gas-pyroclast mixtures produced during explosive volcanic eruptions define a full spectrum of particle concentration, flow regime and particle support mechanisms.

Miocene to Quaternary Tectonostratigraphic Evolution of the Northern Section of the Burdur‐Fethiye Shear Zone, South‐Western Türkiye

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
New zircon ages reveal that lacustrine sedimentation initiated in the Late Miocene (Messinian), revising earlier Pliocene age assignments. The study results support the interpretation of the northern BFSZ as a broad left‐lateral transtensional shear zone rather than a discrete sinistral fault or simple extensional graben array.

Unraveling pyroclastic density current dynamics with multiparameter geophysical sensing

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Detecting, locating, and characterising the dynamics of destabilised volcanic material is critical for assessing the extreme hazards posed by volcanic mass flows, such as pyroclastic density currents.
