Variation of Fe, Al, and F Substitution in Titanite (Sphene)
Titanite is an important mineral in petrochronology studies. Understanding chemical signatures of titanite from different environments can provide significant data in unraveling the complex histories recorded in their textures and compositions.

Metamorphic titanite–zircon pseudomorphs after igneous zirconolite [PDF]
The formation of metamorphic zircon after baddeleyite is a well-known reaction that can be used to date the metamorphism of igneous silica-undersaturated rocks. By contrast, metamorphic minerals formed after igneous zirconolite have rarely been reported.

Late Precambrian U-Pb titanite age for peak regional metamorphism and deformation (Knoydartian orogeny) in the western Moine, Scotland [PDF]
There has been controversy over the number and timing of orogenies in the Precambrian Moine block in the Scottish Caledonides since the earliest radiometric dating in the 1960s. This work challenges a recent hypothesis, that this sector of the Laurentian

Titanite zoning and magma mixing [PDF]
Titanite is a calcium titanium silicate accessory mineral that serves as a sink for trace elements, especially the rare-earth elements and the high-field strength elements (Cerny and Rivadisa.L 1972; Groat, Carter et al. 1985; Enami, Suzuki et al.

Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Anoxia Events in “The Boring Billion”
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.

Titanite Spectroscopy and In Situ LA-ICP-MS U–Pb Geochronology of Mogok, Myanmar
With the development of mineral testing technology and ore deposit geochemistry, titanite has become a hot topic in the study of accessory minerals. Two large-grained titanite crystals from Mogok, Myanmar, were used for a detailed study.
