COMPOSITIONAL FEATURES AND AGE OF ALKALINE GRANITES OF THE INGUR MASSIF, WESTERN TRANS-BAIKAL AREA
The Ingur alkaline granite massif and the associated Zr-Nb occurrence make up part of the largest Mongolian-Trans-Baikal alkaline granitoid provinces. The massif is composed of arfvedsonite, biotite, and alaskite granites. High content of HREE determines

Investigation of Thermoluminescence Characteristics and Kinetics of Natural Obsidian
Thermoluminescence (TL) properties of natural obsidian from the Aksaray region were investigated under beta irradiation. The study identifies optimal grain size, evaluates kinetic parameters via Tm–Tstop and computerized glow curve deconvolution (CGCD) methods, and demonstrates the material's potential for low‐dose environmental and personal radiation ...

Xenotime at the Nanoscale:U-Pb Geochronology and Optimisation of Analyses by Atom Probe Tomography
Xenotime (YPO4) is an accessory phase common in low to high-temperature geological environments. Xenotime is an established geochronometer, though its small size, low modal abundance and textural complexity make it more difficult to analyse with ...

The making of pure quartzose sand in continental interiors: Paraná River (Brazil and Argentina)
ABSTRACT As part of a comprehensive project on sedimentary processes in South America, this study focuses on sediment generation in the intracratonic Paraná Basin and monitors the evolution of sand composition along the Paraná River from central Brazil to the Río de la Plata estuary in Argentina.

We introduce a new integrated line‐scan sensor system that combines hyperspectral and laser‐induced fluorescence imaging as a non‐invasive alternative characterization technique specifically suited for rare‐earth element (REE) mapping and identification. We investigate in detail the potential and limitations in comparison to state‐of‐the‐art approaches

We present U-Th/Pb data obtained for xenotime and monazite from the polycyclic eclogite-facies para- and ortho-gneisses of the Les Essarts Unit (Vendée, southern Armorican Massif, France), which have recorded an HT-LP cycle ending with a first ...

Hydrothermal synthesis records for rare‐earth compounds are repurposed to learn mineralization rules. An extreme gradient boosting model ingests precursors, additives, and engineered descriptors to predict product phases, crystallization temperature, and pH. Feature importance indicates dominant thermodynamic control with kinetic modulation, suggesting

In this study, we present a new concept based on the steady-state, laser-induced photoluminescence of Nd3+, which aims at a direct determination of the amorphous fraction fa in monazite- and xenotime-type orthophosphates on a micrometer scale ...

ABSTRACT Rutile provides a wealth of petrochronological information in metamorphic geology and due to its high stability during processes of the sedimentary cycle, rutile takes a special position in sedimentary provenance analysis. Besides being one of the classical minerals datable using the U–Pb system, rutile incorporates a broad range of trace ...
