Geological setting and intrusion tectonics of the Kotalahti nickel-copper deposit, Finland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1980
The wall rocks of the nickel bearing mafic and ultramafic plutonic rocks of Kotalahti are Archean banded granitoidic gneisses containing inliers of Archean metasediments and metavolcanics.

Platinum group element mineralization at Musongati (Burundi) : concentration and Pd-Rh distribution in pentlandite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The mafic-ultramafic intrusions of the Karagwe-Ankole belt in Burundi are considered as a new potential source for platinum group elements (PGE). The intrusions have mainly been studied for their PGE potential with regard to PGE concentration, but the ...

Theoretical petrology [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
The central issues in petrology have remained remarkably unchanged in the last 50 years. In igneous petrology, the focus is on understanding the nature and cause of diversity in igneous rocks: on identifying primary magma types and constraints on the ...

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

open access: yesNature 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.

Reflectance spectra and AVIRIS-NG airborne hyperspectral data analysis for mapping ultramafic rocks in igneous terrain

open access: yesJournal of Spectral Imaging, 2022
The layered Sittampundi Anorthosite Complex is covered by mafic and ultramafic rocks including anorthosite, gabbro, pyroxenite and other igneous rocks. The ultramafic terrain has frequently undergone metamorphism.

Contribution of ultramafic rocks in central Sanandaj-Sirjan zone to the characterizing of physio-chemical condition during initiation of subduction [PDF]

open access: yesپترولوژی, 2018
In the central part of the Sanandaj-Sirjan zone, there is an ultramafic rock exposure (hornblendite and pyroxenite) adjacent to Molataleb felsic complex completely located between Azna and Aligoodarz towns.
