Large Igneous Province Record Through Time and Implications for Secular Environmental Changes and Geological Time‐Scale Boundaries

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

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

open access: yesМинералогия, 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.

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 ...

The lithospheric mantle and lower crust-mantle relationships under Scotland: a xenolithic perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the British Isles the majority of volcanic rocks containing upper mantle and lower crustal xenoliths occur in Scotland. Most of the occurrences are of Carboniferous–Permian age.

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 ...

Theoretical Spectra of Terrestrial Exoplanet Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate spectra of airless rocky exoplanets with a theoretical framework that self-consistently treats reflection and thermal emission. We find that a silicate surface on an exoplanet is spectroscopically detectable via prominent Si-O features in ...

Ultramafic rock carbonation: Constraints from listvenite core BT1B, Oman Drilling Project [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2019
Abstract The occurrence of the quartz‐carbonate alteration assemblage (listvenite) in ophiolites indicates that ultramafic rock represents an effective sink for dissolved CO 2 .
