Omphacite breakdown: nucleation and deformation of clinopyroxene-plagioclase symplectites

Zertani, Sascha; Morales, Luiz F. G.; Menegon, Luca

2024 Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology

doi:10.1007/s00410-024-02125-0

The breakdown of omphacite plays an important role in the exhumation and retrogression of eclogites. Additionally, metamorphic reactions associated with grain size reduction have the potential to significantly impact deformation mechanisms and the rheology of crustal rocks. We analyze the...

Metasomatic ijolite, glimmerite, silicocarbonatite, and antiskarn formation: carbonatite and silicate phase equilibria in the system Na2O–CaO–K2O–FeO–MgO–Al2O3–SiO2–H2O–O2–CO2

Anenburg, Michael; Walters, Jesse B.

2024 Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology

doi:10.1007/s00410-024-02109-0

Silicocarbonatites are carbonatite rocks containing > 20% silicate minerals. Their formation is not well understood due to low silica solubility in carbonatite melts and negligible amounts of silicate minerals on carbonatite melt cotectics at upper crustal conditions. We explore whether...

Experimental re-melting of a continental crust: probing the deep storage zone of Campi Flegrei and Vesuvius magmas

Palummo, Flavia; Perinelli, Cristina; Bonechi, Barbara; Fabbrizio, Alessandro; Misiti, Valeria; Scarlato, Piergiorgio; Gaeta, Mario

2024 Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology

doi:10.1007/s00410-024-02127-y

Mantle magmas interact with surrounding rocks during their ascent and storage in the continental crust, leading to open system processes as wall rock partial melting. In this study, we have experimentally investigated the reactions between a leucosome depleted migmatite and a primitive K-basaltic...

The behavior of Li and B isotopes in high-T and low-T eclogites enclosed by phengite schists

Wang, Dan; Romer, Rolf L.; Liu, Fulai; Glodny, Johannes

2024 Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology

doi:10.1007/s00410-024-02124-1

Subduction zones are critical sites for recycling of Li and B into the mantle. The way of redistribution of Li and B and their isotopes in subduction settings is debated, and there is a lack of detailed studies on Li and B partitioning between minerals of different types of eclogites and the host...

Trace element partitioning in the lunar magma ocean: an experimental study

Haupt, Cordula P.; Renggli, Christian J.; Rohrbach, Arno; Berndt, Jasper; Schwinger, Sabrina; Maurice, Maxime; Schulze, Maximilian; Breuer, Doris; Klemme, Stephan

2024 Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology

doi:10.1007/s00410-024-02118-z

Modeling the behavior of trace elements during lunar magma ocean solidification is important to further our understanding of the chemical evolution of the Moon. Lunar magma ocean evolution models rely on consistent datasets on how trace elements partition between a lunar silicate melt and...

Testing in-situ apatite Lu–Hf dating in polymetamorphic mafic rocks: a case study from Palaeoproterozoic southern Australia

Brown, Dillon A.; Reid, Anthony; Jagodzinski, Elizabeth A.; Williams, Megan; Simpson, Alex; Pawley, Mark; Kirkland, Christopher L.; Wade, Claire; De Vries Van Leeuwen, Alexander T.; Glorie, Stijn

2024 Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology

doi:10.1007/s00410-024-02117-0

In mafic systems where primary mineral assemblages have witnessed moderate- to high-temperature hydrous overprinting and deformation, little is known about the retentivity of the Lu–Hf isotopic system in apatite. This study presents apatite laser-ablation Lu–Hf and U–Pb geochronology, zircon...
