Oxygen Thermobarometry of Orogenic Lherzolite Massifs

open access: yesJournal of Petrology, 1992
The oxidation state has been determined for spinel peridotites from 13 orogenic lherzolite massifs including Beni Bousera, Ronda, and 11 smaller massifs in the French Pyrenees. The oxygen fugacity (f o2) was calculated for 67 samples from microprobe analyses using a set of secondary spinel standards to correct the ferric iron content in the spinels ...

Upper mantle magma storage and transport under a Canarian shield-volcano, Teno, Tenerife (Spain) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We use clinopyroxene-liquid thermobarometry, aided by petrography and mineral major element chemistry, to reconstruct the magma plumbing system of the late Miocene, largely mafic Teno shield-volcano on the island of Tenerife.

Further evidence for early lunar magnetism from troctolite 76535 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The earliest history of the lunar dynamo is largely unknown and has important implications for the thermal state of the Moon and the physics of dynamo generation.

MORB-derived amphibolites in the Paleozoic basement of the Aluminé Igneous-Metamorphic Complex, Neuquén, Argentina: Decoding its genesis, P-T evolution and pre-Andean regional correlations

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2019
Amphibolites included in the metapelitic sequence and as xenoliths in intrusive magmatic rocks outcropping in the southern sector of the Aluminé Igneous-Metamorphic Complex (AIMC), Neuquén, Argentina, are studied in detail in order to determine their ...

High‐Resolution P‐T‐Time Paths Across Himalayan Faults Exposed Along the Bhagirathi Transect NW India: Implications for the Construction of the Himalayan Orogen and Ongoing Deformation

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Pressure‐temperature (P‐T) conditions and high‐resolution paths from 11 garnet‐bearing rocks collected across Himalayan fault systems exposed along the Bhagirathi River (Uttarakhand, NW India) reveal the tectonic conditions responsible for their growth ...

Study of mineral chemistry, thermobarometry and petrogenesis of migmatitic rocks of Hamedan area [PDF]

open access: yesپترولوژی, 2018
In the Hamedan region, migmatitic rocks occur with various structures. In the Simin area (South Hamedan) stromatic and in the Darreh-Omar (Toyserkan) area ophtalmitic structures are abundant.

Applications and Limitations of Elastic Thermobarometry: Insights From Elastic Modeling of Inclusion‐Host Pairs and Example Case Studies

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Elastic thermobarometry can be used to constrain the pressure and temperature conditions of mineral crystallization by exploiting the difference in the elastic evolution of a mineral inclusion and its host during cooling and decompression.

A new clinopyroxene thermobarometer for mafic to intermediate magmatic systems [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Mineralogy, 2021
Clinopyroxene-only thermobarometry is one of the most practical tools to reconstruct crystallization pressures and temperatures of clinopyroxenes. Because it does not require any information of coexisting silicate melt or other co-crystallized mineral ...

Late Cretaceous to Paleocene Metamorphism and Magmatism in the Funeral Mountains Metamorphic Core Complex, Death Valley, California [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Amphibolite-facies Proterozoic metasedimentary rocks below the low-angle Cenozoic Boundary Canyon Detachment record deep crustal processes related to Mesozoic crustal thickening and subsequent extension.

Recycling Argon through Metamorphic Reactions: the Record in Symplectites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The 40Ar/39Ar ages of metamorphic micas that crystallized at high temperatures are commonly interpreted as cooling ages, with grains considered to have lost 40Ar via thermally-driven diffusion into the grain boundary network.
