The making of pure quartzose sand in continental interiors: Paraná River (Brazil and Argentina)

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 802-837, April 2026.
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.

OH defects in synthetic xenotime (YPO4)

European Journal of Mineralogy, 2016
The polarized infrared spectra of hydrogen-containing xenotime (YPO4) were measured to obtain information on its OH defects. Sample syntheses were conducted at 1.0 GPa using a piston-cylinder apparatus under water-saturated conditions. By lowering the temperature at a rate of 10°C/h from 1200 to 800 °C, xenotime single crystals up to ~300 μm in length ...

A New Concept for an Integrated Mapping of Rare‐Earth Elements using Laser–Induced Fluorescence and Reflectance Spectroscopy

Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 3, March 2026.
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

The Quantification of Radiation Damage in Orthophosphates Using Confocal μ-Luminescence Spectroscopy of Nd3+

Frontiers in Chemistry, 2019
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 ...

Structure of a Variscan migmatite-granite transition zone (N Sardinia, Italy)

Journal of Maps, 2023
This paper presents the structural map of the Barrabisa Complex, an E-W ribbon-like migmatitic massif exposed in the northern part of Sardinia. The migmatites consist of metatexites and diatexites with variable melt proportion, grading in the central ...

Data‐Driven Insights into Rare Earth Mineralization: Machine Learning Applications Using Functional Material Synthesis Data

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
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

Release, Migration, Sorption, and (Re)Precipitation of U during Peraluminous Granite Alteration under Oxidizing Conditions in Central Portugal

Geosciences, 2018
In this work, in order to study the release, migration, sorption, and (re)precipitation of uranium (U) during alteration under oxidizing conditions, we carried out a systematic study using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray maps, and electron microprobe

Chemical Discrimination of Rutile From Different Metamorphic Source Rocks: Dealing With Hierarchical Data Structures in Random Forest Classification

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 2, Page 112-137, February 2026.
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 ...
