Carbonatites are igneous rocks formed in the crust by fractional crystallization of carbonate-
rich parental melts that are mostly mantle derived. They dominantly consist of carbonate …

Carbon fluxes in subduction zones can be better constrained by including new estimates of
carbon concentration in subducting mantle peridotites, consideration of carbonate solubility …

Crustal recycling at convergent plate boundaries is essential to mantle heterogeneity.
However, crustal signatures in the mantle source of basaltic rocks above subduction zones …

Over the last decades, numerous studies have emphasized the role of serpentinites in the
subduction zone geodynamics. Their presence and role in subduction environments are …

Continental magmatic arcs form above subduction zones where the upper plate is
continental lithosphere and/or accreted transitional lithosphere. The best-studied examples …

Siliciclastic sediments owe their origin mainly to land sources. New discriminant-function-
based major-element diagrams for the tectonic discrimination of siliciclastic sediments from …

Phanerozoic orogenic gold mineralization at craton margins is related to the metasomatism
of the lithospheric mantle by crustal material. Slab subduction transfers Au from the crust to …

Chondrite normalized rare earth element (REE) patterns of zircons generally have enriched
Ce values relative to La and Pr, and depleted Eu values relative to Sm and Gd. High Ce …

Potential risks of supply shortages for critical metals including rare-earth elements and
yttrium (REY) have spurred great interest in commercial mining of deep-sea mineral …

Adakite was originally proposed as a genetic term to define intermediate to high-silica, high
Sr/Y and La/Yb volcanic and plutonic rocks derived from melting of the basaltic portion of …
