Application of thermodynamic modelling to natural mantle xenoliths:examples of density variations and pressure–temperature evolution of the lithospheric mantle [PDF]
, 2016 In this paper, we show how the results of phase equilibria calculations in different mantle compositions can be reconciled with the evidence from natural man- tle samples. We present data on the response of bulk rock density to pressure (P), temperature (

Progress in Earth and Planetary ScienceGarnet peridotite xenoliths have been rarely reported from suboceanic mantle. Petrographic and geochemical characteristics of garnet-bearing oceanic peridotite xenoliths provide precious information on dynamics of the suboceanic lithosphere and ...

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 1, Page 20-46, January 2026.ABSTRACT Elevated heat flow associated with mafic magmatism in accretionary orogens has often been proposed as a driving mechanism for (ultra)high‐temperature (UHT) metamorphism and anatexis. The Sancheong–Hadong complex, located in the southern Yeongnam Massif, Korea, consists of a ca.

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 122-139, January 2026.Abstract The O‐, N‐, Mo‐, Ru‐, Os‐, Cr‐, Ti‐, Ni‐, Fe‐, Nd‐, Ca‐, Zn‐, Sr‐, and Mg‐isotopic compositions of enstatite chondrites are essentially identical to those of the Earth and Moon. These correspondences suggest enstatite chondrites formed at ≈1 AU as the only known chondrite groups that accreted in the vicinity of a major planet. Bulk Earth has a

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.Abstract The Newer Volcanic Province (NVP) in southeastern Australia is a classic example of continental intraplate volcanism located far from a plate boundary, yet the configuration of its magma plumbing system remains unclear. Using three‐dimensional (3D) magnetotelluric (MT) inversion, we imaged a vertically continuous, trans‐lithospheric conductive

The Buoyancy of Cratonic Lithospheric Mantle
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.Abstract Cratons are generally thought to be characterized by stable, long‐lived mantle roots. However, recent studies have suggested that the lithospheric mantle may be prone to removal, implying that it may be denser than the asthenosphere. To address these suggestions, we use a global data set of mantle xenoliths to estimate the density structure of

, 2015 We comprehensively compile and review N content in geologic materials to calculate a new N budget for Earth. Using analyses of rocks and minerals in conjunction with N-Ar geochemistry demonstrates that the Bulk Silicate Earth (BSE) contains \sim7\pm4 ...

The potential of phosphorus in clinopyroxene as a geospeedometer: examples from mantle xenoliths [PDF]
, 2019 We investigate the potential to use concentrations and zoning patterns of phosphorus (P) in clinopyroxene as indicators of the rates of igneous and metasomatic processes, comparable to recent applications of P in olivine but applicable to more evolved ...
