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

TLDR
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.

The Composition of Zircon and Igneous and Metamorphic Petrogenesis

TL;DR: The importance of zircon in crustal evolution studies is underscored by its predominant use in U-Th-Pb geochronology and investigations of the temporal evolution of both the crust and lithospheric mantle as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Constraints from Thorium/Lanthanum on Sediment Recycling at Subduction Zones and the Evolution of the Continents

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the question of whether these features are created by subduction or are recycled from subducting sediment using Th/La, which is low in oceanic basalts ( 0·25) and varies in arc basalts and marine sediments (0·09−0·34).
Journal ArticleDOI

Trace element chemistry of zircons from oceanic crust: A method for distinguishing detrital zircon provenance

TL;DR: In this article, trace element compositions for more than 300 zircon grains in 36 gabbros formed at the slow-spreading Mid-Atlantic and Southwest Indian Ridges were acquired.
Journal ArticleDOI

Apatite, Monazite, and Xenotime in Metamorphic Rocks

TL;DR: A quick survey of phosphate mineral descriptions at a commercial mineral web-site revealed over 500 phosphate mineral names and only three are common in metamorphic rocks: apatite, monazite, and xenotime as discussed by the authors.

Zircon saturation revisited: temperature and composition effects in a variety of crustal magma types

TL;DR: In this article, the saturation behavior of zircon in crustal anatectic melts as a function of both temperature and composition has been studied and a model of Zr solubility given by: In D Zr Zircon/melt = −3.80−[0.85(M−1)]+12900/T where T is the absolute temperature, and M is the cation ratio (Na + K + 2Ca)/(Al · Si).

Solar-system abundances of the elements

TL;DR: In this paper, the Ogueil Cl meteorite and all previous Cl chondrite analyses were employed to develop a new solar system abundance table, including the standard deviation and number of analyses for each element.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental determination of the fluid-absent melting relations in the pelitic system

TL;DR: In this article, the melting of a natural metapelite under fluid-absent conditions was studied experimentally and a series of P-T, T-XH2O, and liquidus diagrams were proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phase equilibria and melt productivity in the pelitic system: implications for the origin of peraluminous granitoids and aluminous granulites

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have studied experimentally the vapour-absent melting behavior of a natural metapelitic rock and their results differ greatly from those of previous experimental and theoretical investigations of melt productivity from metamorphic rocks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluid-absent (dehydration) melting of biotite in metapelites in the early stages of crustal anatexis

TL;DR: Experimental investigation of the fluid absent melting reaction has shown that the reaction has a positive dP/dT at least up to 10 kbar, compared to a calculated backbending in a simplified system.
