A mineral that forms under conditions as variable as diagenesis to deep subduction, melt
crystallization to low temperature alteration, and that retains information on time …

Water-fluxed melting, also known as fluid-or water-present melting, is a fundamental process
in the differentiation of continents but its importance has been underestimated in the past 20 …

The Th/U ratios of zircon crystals are routinely used to help understand their growth
mechanism. Despite the wide application of Th/U ratios in understanding the geological …

At low temperatures (< 750 C at moderate to high crustal pressures), the production of
sufficient melt to reach the melt connectivity transition (∼ 7 vol%), enabling melt drainage …

Ultrahigh temperature (UHT) metamorphism is the most thermally extreme form of regional
crustal metamorphism, with temperatures exceeding 900° C. UHT crustal metamorphism is …

Interpreting the wealth of new data derived from the diverse suite of modern single-grain
provenance approaches available to a sedimentologist requires a thorough understanding …

Ages retrieved from accessory minerals in high-grade metamorphic rocks place important
constraints on the timing of events and the rates of tectonometamorphic processes operating …

The Himalayan range exposes a spectacular assemblage of metamorphic rocks from the
mid-and deep crust that have fostered numerous models of how the crust responds to …

Monazite, xenotime, and allanite are REE 1-minerals sensu stricto because lanthanides
(La… Lu) and yttrium are critical constituents in them. Apatite does not require REE, but …

Widespread anatexis was a regional response to the evolution of the Himalayan‐Tibetan
Orogen that occurred some 30 Ma after collision between Asia and India. This paper reviews …
