P–T CONDITIONS, U/Pb AND 40Ar/39Ar ISOTOPIC AGES OF UHT GRANULITES FROM CAPE KALTYGEI, WESTERN BAIKAL REGION

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2021
The study is focused on metapelitic granulites of Cape Kaltygei (Western Baikal region) that contain a diagnostic mineral assemblage of ultrahigh temperature (UHT) metamorphic rocks (orthopyroxene+sillimanite+quartz).

Olivine‐Ahrensite Phase Relations in the Mg2SiO4‐Fe2SiO4 System as a Function of Temperature

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Olivine and ahrensite are the primary components of the interiors of Fe‐rich terrestrial planets and meteorites, making their phase relations crucial for planetary science. Moreover, their phase relations can be used for calibrating large‐volume high‐pressure devices such as multi‐anvil apparatus.

Subduction and Extrusion of an Ultra‐High Pressure Oceanic Plate Interface (Lower Shear Zone, Monviso Massif, Western Alps)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The Lower Shear Zone (LSZ) of the Monviso Massif (Western Alps) constitutes a block‐in‐matrix remnant of the subduction plate interface, now tectonically emplaced into the Western Alpine orogenic belt. Here, we combine observations from cartographic to microscopic scales, focusing on garnet‐bearing lithologies in both the mafic blocks and the ...

An Inverse Method for Quantifying Petrological Parameters and Uncertainty in Phase Equilibrium Modelling

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 1, Page 70-84, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Phase equilibrium modelling offers a powerful quantitative framework for understanding petrological processes. Yet, many studies still rely on qualitative comparisons between natural datasets and these forward modelled predictions to constrain model parameters, commonly pressure–temperature (P–T) conditions.

Plagioclase‐Saturated Melt Hygrothermobarometry and Plagioclase‐Melt Equilibria Using Machine Learning

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Compositions of plagioclase‐melt pairs are commonly used to constrain temperatures (T), dissolved water contents (H2O) and pressures (P) of pre‐eruptive magma storage and transport.

Picroilmenites in Yakutian kimberlites: variations and genetic models [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2014
Major and trace element variations in picroilmenites from Late Devonian kimberlite pipes in Siberia reveal similarities within the region in general, but show individual features for ilmenites from different fields and pipes.

Textural and geochemical diversity of impact melt rock clasts in Apollo 16 sample 67015: Implications for the provenance of impact ejecta in the lunar highlands

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 39-63, January 2026.
Abstract Apollo sample 67015 has been classified as a fragmental breccia comprised of highlands‐type clasts and is proposed to be the most complex Apollo 16 sample. 67015 is dominated by impact melt rock clasts that display a variety of textures, which have been previously interpreted to be indicative of multiple impact events.

Magmatic evolution and architecture of an oceanic intraplate volcano: Vesteris Seamount, Atlantic Ocean

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Vesteris is a large (33 × 27 km) and young (summit age: 0.65–0.010 Ma) intraplate seamount in the Greenland Sea, formed from ocean island basalt (OIB) magmatism.

The Buoyancy of Cratonic Lithospheric Mantle

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract Cratons are generally thought to be characterized by stable, long‐lived mantle roots. However, recent studies have suggested that the lithospheric mantle may be prone to removal, implying that it may be denser than the asthenosphere. To address these suggestions, we use a global data set of mantle xenoliths to estimate the density structure of
