Skeletal, microspinifex and harrisite textures in the Upper Paleozoic komatiitic sills and lavas from the Mashhad-Virani Complex, NE Iran

open access: yesJournal of Economic Geology, 2019
Introduction The Mashhad- Virani complex has been sandwiched between the collided Lut block and Turan plate. This complex is composed of the following four units: 1) ultramafic-mafic rocks, 2) metamorphosed sedimentary rocks, 3) pyroclastic rocks and 4)

Mineral reconnaissance at the Highland boundary with special reference to the Loch Lomond and Aberfoyle areas [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
Serpentinite bodies at the Highland Boundary in the Loch Lomond and Aberfoyle areas are extensively altered to magnesite-quartz and ferroan-dolomite-quartz rocks. Silicification was probably initiated before conversion to carbonate.

Multi‐Method Geochronology and P‒T Modeling Unravels the Thermo‐Tectonic History of the Rudall Province, Western Australia

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Rudall Province (RP) is a Paleo‐Mesoproterozoic belt that records numerous overprinting tectono‐metamorphic events. Situated on the eastern edge of the West Australian Craton (WAC), the RP represents a key area for understanding the Proterozoic assembly and subsequent tectonic history of Western Australia.

Plagioclasites from chromite-bearing ultramafic rocks of the Rai-Iz massif

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2016
The corundum-bearing and without-corundum plagioclasites from chromite-bearing ultramafic rocks of Rai-Iz massif were studied. Chemical composition of the rock-forming minerals and rock geochemical characteristics was determined.

Crustal Structure of Laurentia and Peri‐Gondwanan Terranes Beneath Ireland and Britain and Comparison With Eastern North America

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Appalachian‐Caledonian orogen was built during the Paleozoic by accretion of peri‐Gondwanan terranes onto Laurentia, culminating in the formation of Pangea. During the Mesozoic, Pangea broke apart, displacing one section of the belt to eastern North America and another to northwestern Europe.

Archean metamorphic sequence and surfaces, Kangerdlugssuaq Fjord, East Greenland [PDF]

open access: yes
The characteristics of Archean metamorphic surfaces and fabrics of a mapped sequence of rocks older than about 3000 Ma provide information basic to an understanding of the structural evolution and metamorphic history in Kangerdlugssuaq Fjord, east ...

Quantifying Vein Network Permeability in Dehydrated Serpentinites Using Thermodynamics and Generative AI

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Fluids released from subducting hydrated rocks influence volcanism, tectonics, and geochemical cycling, but the mechanisms of fluid escape in subduction zones remain poorly understood. We address this issue by investigating the Erro‐Tobbio meta‐serpentinites (ET‐MS), Italy, exhumed serpentinite rocks that preserve extensive dehydration vein ...
