Metamorphosed and deformed pillows from Losomäki: evidence of sub-aqueous volcanism in the Outokumpu association, eastern Finland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1981
Pillow lavas, some highly deformed and now seen as banded diopside amphibolites and tremolite-epidote-chlorite rocks (»barren skarn»), occur within the lower Proterozoic Outokumpu rock association at Losomäki, 50 km N.W. of Outokumpu.

Developing New Amphibole Thermobarometers to Constrain High P‐T Hydration Processes of Basic‐Ultrabasic Rocks

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Amphibole compositions record high‐pressure‐temperature (P‐T) hydration processes during magmatism and metamorphism in the deep Earth. However, amphibole thermobarometers calibrated for basic–ultrabasic systems are scarce. To address this issue, we compiled Ca‐amphibole data from published equilibrium experiments and used machine‐learning ...

Origin of a Diopside–Tremolite Assemblage near Tweed, Ontario

open access: yes, 1973
An occurrence of silicated dolomitic marble is described in which diopside zones are separated from the host dolomite by symmetrical zones of tremolite and calcite with interstitial quartz. Zoned tremolite–calcite veinlets are also found in the dolomite.

Critical reappraisal of Balangero chrysotile and mesothelioma risk

open access: yesEpidemiology, Biostatistics and Public Health, 2014
BackgroundBalangero, 40 km northwest of Torino in the Piedmonte Region, was home to the largest and most active chrysotile mine in Europe operating from 1916 - 1990 and employed over 300 men at any one time. The chrysotile was thought to be pure. Despite

Ceramic Production and Geodiversity in Iron Age Iberia: An Archaeometric Study of Pottery from Castrejón de Capote (SW Spain)

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 659-673, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The hillfort of Castrejón de Capote is one of the best investigated settlements of Late Iron Age southwest Iberia. Located in the territory that the classical sources attributed to the Celtici, it was occupied between the early 4th and the 1st centuries bce.

Surface reactivity of amphibole asbestos. A comparison between two tremolite samples with different surface area [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Surface reactivity of a fibrous tremolite sample from Castelluccio Superiore (Italy) was investigated by means of free radical generation following incubation in H2O2solution buffered at pH 7.4, for several time points, ranging from 1 day to 1 month ...

Evolution Model for the Paleoproterozoic Talvivaara Mudstone‐Hosted Ni‐Zn‐Cu‐Co Deposit in Fennoscandia

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 221-232, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The Paleoproterozoic Talvivaara mudstone is a very large sulfidic Ni‐Co deposit that records enhanced organic matter accumulation during the global Shunga Event. Here, rock geochemistry and microscale S and Fe isotope composition of in situ pyrrhotites and pyrites are studied in well‐characterised, well‐preserved drill core samples.

The Complexity of Deep Aqueous Fluids in Planetary Ultramafic Mantles

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Planetary volatiles cycle through a planet's crust, mantle, and atmosphere, playing a crucial role in surface processes and habitability. Discussions of planetary volatiles traditionally focus on water, carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur, but fluids in contact with silicate rocks and ultramafic mantles can contain significant amounts of magnesium ...
