A floristic study was conducted in two ultramafic formations in Palawan Island, selected for their differing land uses, to assess the role of ultramafic forests as a carbon sink based on plant diversity and Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) content.

Serpentinization of ultramafic rocks is fundamental to modern plate tectonics and for volatile (re‐)cycling into the mantle and magmatic arcs. Serpentinites are also highly reactive with CO2 such that they are prime targets for carbon sequestration ...

Release of potassium from rock powder by the yeast Torulaspora globosa
The alteration of minerals in rocks and the availability of elements for plant nutrition require long periods of time, and microorganisms are thought to induce the release of potassium and phosphate from rocks.

Alteration of ultramafic rocks plays a role in hydrocarbon production, but little is known about this process at depth. Here, the authors provide evidence that alteration of carbonated ultramafic rocks at high-pressures are an important source of abiotic

Olivine-chrome-spinel equilibrium in chromitites and ultramafites of Rai-Iz massif, Polar Urals
Olivine and chrome-spinel compositions from chromitites and ore-bearing metamorphosed ultramafic rocks of Rai-Iz massif were compared. It was established that olivine and spinel ferruginosity are directly proportional and increase monotonically from ...

: A suite of ultramafic and mafic rocks developed in the Chigu Tso area, eastern Tethyan Himalaya. Baddeleyite and zircon U-Pb ages acquired by SIMS and LA-ICP-MS from olivine pyroxenite rocks in the Chigu Tso area are 138.9±3.0 Ma and 139.0±1.9 Ma ...

Ultramafic Melt Viscosity: A Model
A non-Arrhenian model for the Newtonian viscosity (η) of ultramafic melts is presented. The model predicts the viscosity of ultramafic melts as a function of temperature (T), pressure (P), H2O content and for a range of melt compositions (70 < Mg# < 100).

Composition and Provenance of Victoria Group Sandstones in Southern North Victoria Land, Antarctica
Three distinct source areas contributed to sandstones of the Victoria Group within the Transantarctic Basin in southern North Victoria Land. During the Permian, quartzose sandstones were derived from erosion of the local Ross Orogen, likely from an uplifted swell in the area of today's Ross Sea, the Ross High.
