The trace element composition of apatite and its application to detrital provenance studies
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a comprehensive description of the trace element behaviour of apatite in various kinds of bedrocks (igneous rocks from felsic through to ultramafic compositions, metamorphic rocks from low to high grades and of diverse protolith composition, and authigenic apatites).

Apatite: a U-Pb thermochronometer or geochronometer?
Christopher L. Kirkland,Chris Yakymchuk,Kristoffer Szilas,Noreen J. Evans,Julie A. Hollis,Bradley J. McDonald,Nicholas J. Gardiner +6 more
TL;DR: A case study of two apatite samples from the Akia Terrane in Greenland that help chart some of the post magmatic history of this region has been presented in this article, where the U-Pb and trace element chemistry and morphology support an interpretation in which these apatterite crystals are originally igneous and record cooling after metamorphism, with subsequent generation of discrete new rims.

Sourcing the sand: Accessory mineral fertility, analytical and other biases in detrital U-Pb provenance analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, a review focusing on the various possible mineral-specific biases in U-Pb accessory mineral provenance studies employing the minerals zircon, rutile, apatite, monazite and titanite is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the apatite U-Pb dates and rare earth element geochemistry for 44 granitoids were used to reveal a prolonged history of low-grade metamorphism and associated fluid alteration between ~285 and ~240 Ma.

The composition of the Earth
William F. McDonough,Shen-Su Sun +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the relative abundances of the refractory elements in carbonaceous, ordinary, and enstatite chondritic meteorites and found that the most consistent composition of the Earth's core is derived from the seismic profile and its interpretation, compared with primitive meteorites, and chemical and petrological models of peridotite-basalt melting relationships.

Approximation of terrestrial lead isotope evolution by a two-stage model
J.S. Stacey,Jan Kramers +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-stage model for terrestrial lead isotope evolution is proposed, which permits the age of the earth to be that of the meteorite system and also yields good model ages for samples of all ages.

Iolite: Freeware for the visualisation and processing of mass spectrometric data
TL;DR: Iolite is a non-commercial software package developed to aid in the processing of inorganic mass spectrometric data, with a strong emphasis on visualisation versus time of acquisition, to provide a powerful framework for data processing and interpretation, while giving users the ability to implement their own data reduction protocols.

H.W. Nesbitt,Grant M. Young +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the proportions of Ca, Na and K released by feldspars of plutonic rocks (granites to gabbros) to weathering solutions were predicted.
