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

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
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
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

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

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
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 ...
