Ediacara Obscura: Unveiling Hidden Magnetisations in the Fen Complex, Southern Norway

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Paleomagnetic directions found in Ediacaran (635–539 Ma) rocks are widely dispersed, which has led to conflicting hypotheses about tectonic regimes and geomagnetic field behavior during this period, and raised doubts about the fidelity of the ...

Petrogenesis of juvenile pelletal lapilli in ultramafic lamprophyres. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2023
Abstract The Chadobets alkaline-carbonatite complex (Siberian craton) is a natural laboratory for all varieties of ultramafic lamprophyres, including damtjernites formed by fluid-explosion mechanisms, which contain a large number of pelletal lapilli.

Architecture of the Patrimonio Fault System and the Miocene Post‐Orogenic Extension in Alpine Corsica (France)

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The exhumation of Alpine Corsica is the result of Oligocene‐Miocene lithospheric back‐arc extension in the wake of the eastward migration of Apenninic subduction. Although the geometry, kinematics and timing of ductile detachments are well constrained, the brittle extension leading to final exhumation of Alpine Corsica is less documented.

Kamafugite Magma Pathways and Lava‐Flow Paleotopography From Three‐Dimensional Audiomagnetotelluric Imaging Constrained by Borehole Data

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract An audiomagnetotelluric (AMT) survey was conducted within the Alto Paranaíba Igneous Province, southeastern Brazil, to delineate shallow occurrences of kamafugite, a rare ultrapotassic volcanic rock worldwide. A dense grid of AMT stations was deployed, allowing the construction of a high‐resolution 3D electrical resistivity model ...

LifeMet: Report on the 2024–2025 meteorite recovery expedition in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica for the study of microbe–meteorite interactions

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 1847-1860, August 2026.
Abstract Since the discovery of nine meteorites near the Yamato mountains in 1969, Antarctica has been recognized as a superb location for meteorite recovery. While Antarctic recovery expeditions prioritize meteorite preservation for mineralogical and planetary studies, meteorites are not typically collected for biological applications.

Minerals of the apatite group from ultramafic lamprophyres of the Zima alkaline-ultramafic carbonate complex (Urik-Iya graben, Eastern Sayan region)

LITHOSPHERE (Russia), 2023
Research subject. This paper presents the results of a study of minerals of the apatite group from aillikites of the Zima alkaline-ultramafic carbonatite complex. Aim. To determine the composition of apatites to characterize the studied rocks and to elucidate the patterns of element distribution in the magma of aillikites in the late crystallization ...

Geochemical and Isotopic Constraints on Long‐Lived Source Enrichment and Mantle Evolution in Paleoproterozoic Cratonic Lamprophyres

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The cratonic lithospheric mantle records complex metasomatic processes and is frequently tapped by alkaline magmatism, offering a unique opportunity to trace the progressive evolution of the mantle. In the present contribution, we investigate a newly identified calc‐alkaline lamprophyre field from the Neoarchean Jonnagiri Schist Belt, Eastern ...

Petrogenesis of a Hybrid Cluster of Evolved Kimberlites and Ultramafic Lamprophyres in the Kuusamo Area, Finland

Journal of Petrology, 2019
Abstract Kimberlites are often closely associated, both in time and space, with a wide variety of alkaline ultramafic rock types, yet the question of a genetic relationship between these rock types remains uncertain. One locality where these relationships can be studied within the same cluster is the Karelian craton in Finland.
