Residence of REE, Y, Th and U in granites and crustal protoliths : implications for the chemistry of crustal melts

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic study with laser ablation, scanning electron microscopy and electron microprobe revealed that ∼70-95 wt% of REE, Y, Th and U in granite rocks and crustal protoliths reside within REEYThU-rich accessories whose nature, composition and associations change with the rock aluminosity.

Mineral/leucosome trace-element partitioning in a peraluminous migmatite (a laser ablation-ICP-MS study)

TL;DR: In this paper, the crystal/melt partition coefficients were estimated as the concentration ratios between leucosome samples appearing to be pure melts and mesosome minerals, which were analyzed for trace elements with a laser probe coupled to an ICP mass spectrometer.
