Geology and crystallization conditions of the Särkiniemi intrusion and related nickel-copper ore, central Finland – implications for depth of emplacement of 1.88 Ga nickel-bearing intrusions [PDF]
Several Ni-Cu deposits occur within the Kotalahti area, central Finland, in proximity to an Archaean gneiss dome surrounded by a Palaeoproterozoic craton-margin supracrustal sequence comprising quartzites, limestones, calc-silicate rocks, black schists ...

Mineral chemistry and thermobarometry of Dorbeh diorite metamorphic aureole, south of Urmia [PDF]
Hercynite-rich spinel is a typical mineral of both quartz-bearing and quartz-free metapelitic rocks that form under low-pressure high-temperature conditions in the granulite facies (Sengupta et al., 1991) or upper-amphibolite facies of regional and ...

Magma Plumbing During the 2014–2015 Eruption of Fogo (Cape Verde Islands)
Phenocrysts in volcanic rocks are recorders of magmatic processes that have occurred at depth before and during a volcanic eruption. Our petrological investigations of stratigraphically controlled tephrite and phonotephrite samples from the latest ...

Mineral chemistry, thermobarometry and tectonomagmatic setting of Late-Cretaceous volcanic rocks from the Kojid area (south of Lahijan, northern Alborz) [PDF]
The volcanic rocks of Kojid area (south of Lahijan) crop out in northern Alborz. They show mainly pillow structure with numerous cross-cutting dykes. Based on lithostratigraphic relationships and interpillow pelagic limestones, the volcanics are Late ...

High- and Ultrahigh-Pressure Metamorphism in the North Qaidam and South Altyn Terranes, Western China [PDF]
The North Qaidam and South Altyn terranes extend approximately 1000 km across the northern Tibetan Plateau, and five localities preserve evidence of Early Paleozoic high-pressure (HP) or ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) metamorphism, including the presence of ...

Metamorphic P–T paths of Archean granulite facies metasedimentary lithologies from the eastern Beartooth Mountains of the northern Wyoming Province, Montana, USA: constraints from quartz-in-garnet (QuiG) Raman elastic barometry, geothermobarometry, and thermodynamic modeling [PDF]
Metamorphic pressure and temperature (P–T) paths in late-Archean high-grade rocks of the eastern Beartooth Mountains of Montana (USA), a portion of the Wyoming Province, are established by a combination of imaging, analytical, and modeling approaches ...
