Archean metamorphic sequence and surfaces, Kangerdlugssuaq Fjord, East Greenland [PDF]

The characteristics of Archean metamorphic surfaces and fabrics of a mapped sequence of rocks older than about 3000 Ma provide information basic to an understanding of the structural evolution and metamorphic history in Kangerdlugssuaq Fjord, east ...

Quantitative Assessment of Peridotite Tectonomagmatic Affinities Using Compositional Data Analysis and Explainable Machine Learning

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Peridotites record the compositional evolution of the lithospheric and asthenospheric mantle across plume‐related lithospheres, convergent margins, and rift‐related volcanic environments; however, their tectonomagmatic affinities are commonly difficult to resolve using traditional low‐dimensional geochemical discrimination diagrams.

Stored mafic/ultramafic crust and early Archean mantle depletion [PDF]

Both early and late Archean rocks from greenstone belts and felsic gneiss complexes exhibit positive epsilon(Nd) values of +1 to +5 by 3.5 Ga, demonstrating that a depleted mantle reservoir existed very early.

Chemical Geodynamics of Granitoid Magmatism During a Pacific‐Philippine Sea Plate Transition in Southwest Japan

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Granitoid magmatism along the western Pacific margin records interactions between subduction dynamics and crust–mantle processes; however, the links between plate reorganization and magma‐source evolution remain debated. Here we integrate U–Pb zircon geochronology with Pb–Sr–Nd–Hf isotope systematics to investigate Cretaceous–Paleogene ...

Olivine Microstructure Constraints on Ureilite Parent Body Deformation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Ureilites are ultramafic achondrites for which the parent body is unknown. Monomict ureilites, consisting primarily of olivine and pyroxene, are thought to represent mantle residues, carrying essential information for their parent body deformation history.

Partitioning of Major and Trace Elements in a Stand of the Nickel Hyperaccumulator Rinorea cf. bengalensis in Borneo

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 3, May 2026.
Rinorea cf. bengalensis is a tropical nickel hyperaccumulator plant that can be dominant in forests locally. We investigated the partitioning of major and trace elements in a stand of R. cf. bengalensis in Borneo. Hyperaccumulators have a large impact on the cycling of Ni and other elements in their ecosystem. ABSTRACT Rinorea cf.

Petrographic Analysis of Mafic and Ultramafic Rocks in Northern Thailand: Implications for CO₂ Mineralization and Enhanced Rock Weathering Approach

Geosciences
Mafic and ultramafic rocks have become a promising approach for atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction, as they are major sources of CO2-reactive minerals, i.e., olivine, pyroxene, plagioclase, and serpentine.

Provenance and Petrological Evolution of Sand Injection Complexes: Insights From Heavy Mineral Analysis in the Paleogene Forearc Succession of the San Joaquin Basin

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
The study of heavy mineral assemblages with statistical analysis resolves provenance signatures and quantifies syn‐emplacement modification of sand injection complexes. Results demonstrate transformative petrological processes, including density‐dependent hydraulic sorting and mechanical grain degradation.

Composition and Mineralogical Features of Ultramafic Rocks of Eastern Part of Southern Kraka Massif (South Urals)

Georesursy
The paper presents new data on the structure and composition of ultramafic rocks in the eastern part of the South Kraka massif. It is shown that the studied area is composed predominantly of spinel peridotites, among which the main role belongs to ...
