Journal ArticleDOI
Dehydration melting of metabasalt at 8-32 kbar : Implications for continental growth and crust-mantle recycling
Robert P. Rapp,E. Bruce Watson +1 more
Journal ArticleDOI
Partial melting of amphibolite/eclogite and the origin of Archean trondhjemites and tonalites
TL;DR: In this article, a series of vapor-absent (i.e., Pfluid < Ptotal) melting experiments on four natural basaltic compositions were conducted at 8, 16, 22 and 32 kbar in order to assess the validity of models for the origin of Archean granitoids which assume a mafic crustal source.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monazite solubility and dissolution kinetics: implications for the thorium and light rare earth chemistry of felsic magmas
Robert P. Rapp,E. Bruce Watson +1 more
TL;DR: A series of monazite dissolution experiments was conducted in a hydrous (1-6 wt%) granitic melt at 8 kbar over the temperature range 1,000-1,400° C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental evidence bearing on the stability of monazite during crustal anaatexis
TL;DR: In this paper, the compositional stability of monazite in "granitic" melts ranging from peraluminous to metaluminous compostions was investigated under water-saturated conditions between 850-1000°C, at 8 Kb.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inclusion/host relations involving accessory minerals in high-grade metamorphic and anatectic rocks
TL;DR: In this article, a review of interfacial energy considerations is used to show that the free energy of the system is lowered by location of accessory minerals at major-phase grain perimeters, and that the magnitude of this effect is proportional to the square of the accessory grain radius.
