Amphibole (Amp) plays a crucial role in the study of several earth and planetary processes.
One of its most common applications is in thermobarometry, especially for volcanic …

Continental arcs are the sites of production of continental crust, but the origin of these
magmatic systems is not well understood. Although a number of processes have been …

Generation of continental crust in collision zones reflect the interplay between oceanic
subduction and continental collision. The Gangdese continental crust in southern Tibet …

Arc-basaltic melts of typical hydration state (≥ 2 wt% H 2 O) are buoyant relative to all
common crustal igneous rock types and may pass adiabatically from a mantle source …

Arc magmas, a major contributor to continental crust growth, are thought to be more oxidized
than mid-ocean ridge basalts as reflected by an enrichment in ferric iron relative to ferrous …

We review igneous experimental data designed to understand fractionation processes in the
roots of magmatic arcs, focusing on fractional crystallization experiments in dry and hydrous …

Chemical diversity in convergent margin magmas is a product of igneous differentiation in
crustal hot zones, vertically extensive regions characterised by a low-volume (< 20%) mobile …

The Tethyan metallogenic domain (TMD), as one of the three major domains in the world,
extends over 10000 km from east to west, and has developed several world-class …

Crystallisation-driven differentiation is one fundamental mechanism proposed to control the
compositional evolution of magmas. In this experimental study, we simulated polybaric …

For porphyry Cu deposits that formed during oceanic slab subduction, there is a general
consensus that the ore-forming magmas evolved through fractionation of mafic magmas that …
