In this paper the geological occurrence, geochemistry and mineralogy of ultrapotassic
(K2O/Na2O> 3 (molar ratio)) and perpotassic (K2O/Al2O3> 1 (molar ratio)) igneous rocks …

The extant data for the physical properties of BOS slags and for slag systems relevant to
BOS have been collated and evaluated. Data for the following physical properties have …

Students of a phenomenon as common but complex as andesite genesis often are
overwhelmed by, or overlook, the volume and diversity of relevant information. Thus there is …

An updated and expanded data set that consists of 214 plagioclase-liquid equilibrium pairs
from 40 experimental studies in the literature is used to recalibrate the thermodynamic …

Equations describing trace element and isotopic evolution in a magma chamber affected
simultaneously by fractional crystallization and wallrock assimilation are presented for a …

Every large eruption of nonbasaltic magma taps a magma reservoir that is thermally and
compositionally zoned. Most small eruptions also tap parts of heterogeneous and evolving …

The ubiquity of dykes in the Earth's crust is evidence that the transport of magma by fluid‐
induced fracture of the lithosphere is an important phenomenon. Magma fracture transports …

Volcán Colima is Mexico's most historically active andesitic composite volcano. It lies 150
km north of the Middle America Trench at the western end of the Mexican Volcanic Belt …

A new thermodynamic model for the plagioclase-liquid exchange reaction between the
albite (NaAlSi3O8) and anorthite (CaAl2Si2O8) components is presented, which can be …

Chinese continental lithosphere comprises three tectonic domains:(1) eastern China, a
region characterized by rifting, extensional basins, and voluminous basaltic volcanism;(2) …
