Analysis of Ultramafic Rocks Weathering Level Using the Magnetic Susceptibility in Konawe Regency, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia

JGEET: Journal of Geoscience, Engineering, Environment and Technology, 2020
The Konawe region is part of the Sulawesi Southeast Arm ophiolite belt where ultramafic rocks are exposed in the form of dunite and peridotite. The formation of nickel deposits is closely related to the weathering process of ultramafic rocks as a source ...

MINERALOGY AND GENESIS OF ULTRAMAFIC ROCKS FROM THE KURTUSHIBA OPHIOLITE BELT (WESTERN SAYAN) [PDF]

Минералогия, 2022
The studies of minerals and melt inclusions in ultramafic rocks of the Kurtushiba ophiolite belt (Western Sayan) allowed us to establish the conditions of mineral-forming processes during their formation.

Decreasing extents of Archean serpentinization contributed to the rise of an oxidized atmosphere

Nature Communications, 2021
Throughout the Archean, H2 generation via low-temperature ultramafic serpentinization likely helped prevent atmospheric O2 accumulation and continued until the abundance of ultramafic rocks diminished setting the stage for the Great Oxidation Event.

Regional Lithological Mapping Using ASTER-TIR Data: Case Study for the Tibetan Plateau and the Surrounding Area

Geosciences, 2016
The mineralogical indices the Quartz Index (QI), Carbonate Index (CI) and Mafic Index (MI) for ASTER multispectral thermal infrared (TIR) data were applied to various geological materials for regional lithological mapping on the Tibetan Plateau.

Occurrence and cycling of trace elements in ultramafic soils and their impacts on human health: A critical review

Environment International, 2019
The transformation of trace metals (TMs) in natural environmental systems has created significant concerns in recent decades. Ultramafic environments lead to potential risks to the agricultural products and, subsequently, to human health.

Earth's Earliest Phaneritic Ultramafic Rocks: Mantle Slices or Crustal Cumulates?

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
When plate tectonics initiated remains uncertain, partly because many signals interpreted as diagnostic of plate tectonics can be alternatively explained via hot stagnant‐lid tectonics.

A Reassessment of Petrochemistry of ~1.2 Ga Tonalitic Rocks of the Northern Tugela Terrane, Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa: Further Constraints on the Evolution of This Belt

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Our petrochemical studies on ~1.2 Ga granitoids of the Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa, do not suggest any property similar to Phanerozoic‐style subduction‐related granitoids. Plot of Kotongweni Tonalite in Y versus Sr diagram (after Moyen 2011), note that most samples have Sr/Y < 50.
