Quartz and rutile were synthesized from silica-saturated aqueous fluids between 5 and 20
kbar and from 700 to 940° C in a piston-cylinder apparatus to explore the potential pressure …

Trace-element compositions of olivine from 75 mantle rocks of diverse origin, including
xenoliths from kimberlites, basaltic lavas and orogenic peridotites, were determined by laser …

The Ti content of zircon (ZrSiO 4) can be used as a geothermometer. Ti could substitute for
Si or Zr in zircon, which would result in opposing responses of Ti solubility to (i) the activities …

Peridotite xenoliths and diamonds from kimberlites represent an important source of
information about the composition of the continental lithosphere at depths exceeding 120 …

Synthetic hydroxylated titanium-bearing and undoped MgO-buffered forsterite crystals were
heated at atmospheric pressure in air at temperatures from 800 to 1200° C to determine …

The pressure and temperature sensitivity of the two most important point hydrous defects in
mantle olivine involving Si vacancies (associated to trace amounts of titanium [TiChu‐PD] or …

Equilibrium Ti isotope fractionation factors among major Ti-bearing minerals are critical for
understanding Ti isotope fractionation during magmatic processes. We use the first …

Ti-in-zircon thermometry has become a widely used tool to determine zircon crystallization
temperatures, in part due to reports of extremely sluggish Ti diffusion perpendicular to the …

There are four ways by which OH-commonly substitutes into olivine, namely those
associated with (1) Si vacancies,(2) Mg vacancies,(3) Ti, or (4) trivalent cations. The four …

Abstract Magnesium silicates (Mg x SiO y) and in particular forsterite (Mg 2 SiO 4) owing to
their low thermal expansion mismatch with metals are promising materials for bioactive …
