Deducing Mineralogy of Serpentinized and Carbonated Ultramafic Rocks Using Physical Properties With Implications for Carbon Sequestration and Subduction Zone Dynamics

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
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 ...

Plant endemism of the Balkan high‐mountain fens: a community‐level synthesis and their climate change perspective

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Balkan high‐mountain fens harbour unique endemic plant communities, with a west‐to‐east compositional gradient and local richness primarily shaped by palaeoclimate. As these fens have already experienced drier, warmer summers than at present, they may withstand climate change if actively and effectively protected. Abstract The phenomenon of Balkan high‐

Release of potassium from rock powder by the yeast Torulaspora globosa

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2012
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.

Ultramafic Melt Viscosity: A Model

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Science Letters
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).

Olivine-chrome-spinel equilibrium in chromitites and ultramafites of Rai-Iz massif, Polar Urals

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2016
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 ...

Massive production of abiotic methane during subduction evidenced in metamorphosed ophicarbonates from the Italian Alps

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
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

Baddeleyite and zircon U-Pb ages of the ultramafic rocks in Chigu Tso area, Southeastern Tibet and their constraints on the timing of Comei Large Igneous Province

open access: yesChina Geology, 2020
: 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 ...

BADDELEYITE MINERALIZATION OF ULTRAMAFIC ROCKS FROM THE MAIN URALS COLLISIONAL SUTURE (UFALEY METAMORPHIC BLOCK, CENTRAL URALS) [PDF]

open access: yesМинералогия, 2016
Baddeleyite from ultramafic rocks of the Kurta eclogite-schist megamélange (Ufaley metamorphic block, Central Urals) is studied. The zirconium mineralization is established in Ni-bearing forsterite and magnetite-forsterite rocks, which were replaced by ...
