Crustal melting and suprasolidus phase equilibria: From first principles to the state-of-the-art
Partial melting is the fundamental process by which juvenile crust was produced from the
mantle and subsequently reworked to become the stable, compositionally-differentiated …

Ferrous/ferric (Fe2+/Fe3+) partitioning among silicates in metapelites
Abstract Fe3+ and XFe3+, defined as Fe3+/(Fe2++ Fe3+) on a molar basis, are now
recognised as key parameters in phase equilibrium modelling. A hindrance is that it is only …

Evidence of an Archean-Paleoproterozoic micro-continent remobilized during the Neoproterozoic from the western Hoggar (Tuareg Shield, Algeria): Geodynamic …
The western boundary of the Tirek terrane in the Hoggar contains the two largest gold
deposits in Algeria, namely the Amesmessa and Tirek gold fields. New geological map** …

Petrological study of an eclogite-facies metagranite from the Champtoceaux Complex (La Picherais, Armorican Massif, France)
The high-pressure metagranite of La Picherais belongs to the Cellier Unit (part of the lower
allochthon of the Champtoceaux Complex; Armorican Massif, western France), where it …

Neoproterozoic evolution and Cambrian reworking of ultrahigh temperature granulites in the Eastern Ghats Province, India
The time‐scales and P–T conditions recorded by granulite facies metamorphic rocks permit
inferences about the geodynamic regime in which they formed. Two compositionally …

Ultrahigh‐temperature Palaeoproterozoic rocks in the Neoproterozoic Borborema Province, implications for São Francisco Craton dispersion in NE Brazil
This work reports on the first identification of sapphirine‐bearing ultrahigh‐temperature
(UHT) metamorphic rocks within the Borborema Province, in NE Brazil. The investigated …
