Tourmaline is a class of boron-bearing aluminosilicate minerals. It has a complex chemical component and stable chemical property, and is difficult to decompose by wet methods. The high content of B2O3 makes it difficult to simultaneously determine major

Abstract The Arabian Peninsula encompasses one of the world's most extensive aeolian systems, yet the provenance and transport history of its dune sediments are not well understood. Using hyperspectral data from NASA's Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation (EMIT), we mapped mineral compositions and abundance patterns across dune fields and ...

Insights from the compositional evolution of a multi-coloured, zoned tourmaline from the Cruzeiro pegmatite, Minas Gerais, Brazil [PDF]
This study compares the compositional evolution of a multi-coloured, zoned tourmaline crystal from the Cruzeiro pegmatite, Brazil, with the compositions of homogeneous tourmaline crystals systematically collected from the outer to the inner zones of the ...

Clasts of albite‐porphyroblastic quartzofeldspathic schist, derived from the Otago Schist basement, occur within the Port Chalmers Breccia, a diatreme at the centre of the Dunedin stratovolcano, New Zealand. Schists have undergone varying degrees of replacement reactions (at temperatures of 300° to >500°C) producing hornfelses, with Ca‐ and K‐enriched ...

Abstract The middle Cretaceous granitoid plutons of the Shalair Valley, situated in northeastern Iraq, constitute a principal magmatic component of the Sanandaj–Sirjan Zone within the northwestern segment of the Zagros Orogenic Belt. Among these plutons, the equigranular Aulan body (AG) and the porphyritic Laladar body (LG) were crystallized at 111.0 ±
