Thermomechanical feedbacks in magmatic systems: Implications for growth, longevity, and evolution of large caldera-forming magma reservoirs and their …

SL de Silva, PM Gregg - Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2014 - Elsevier
Large magma bodies that feed super-eruptions and build batholiths are not instantaneously
emplaced. Many accumulate over time scales of 10 5 to 10 6 years as part of magmatic …

Deep crustal expressions of exhumed strike-slip fault systems: Shear zone initiation on rheological boundaries

S Cao, F Neubauer - Earth-Science Reviews, 2016 - Elsevier
The formation of major exhumed strike-slip faults represents one of the most important
dynamic processes affecting the evolution of the Earth's lithosphere. Detailed models of the …

Granite: From genesis to emplacement

M Brown - GSA bulletin, 2013 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org

Tectono-magmatic precursors for porphyry Cu-(Mo-Au) deposit formation

JP Richards - Economic geology, 2003 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Abstract Porphyry Cu-(Mo-Au) deposits are relatively rare but reproducible products of
subduction-related magmatism. No unique processes appear to be required for their …

Over the last few decades, significant advances in using geophysical techniques to image
the structure of magma plumbing systems have enabled the identification of zones of melt …

Melt segregation in the continental crust: distribution and movement of melt in anatectic rocks

EW Sawyer - Journal of metamorphic Geology, 2001 - Wiley Online Library
The grain‐and outcrop‐scale distribution of melt has been mapped in anatectic rocks from
regional and contact metamorphic environments and used to infer melt movement paths. At …

Porphyry copper deposit formation in arcs: What are the odds?

JP Richards - Geosphere, 2022 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Arc magmas globally are H2O-Cl-S–rich and moderately oxidized (ΔFMQ=+ 1 to+ 2) relative
to most other mantle-derived magmas (ΔFMQ≤ 0). Their relatively high oxidation state limits …

Slab-rollback ignimbrite flareups in the southern Great Basin and other Cenozoic American arcs: A distinct style of arc volcanism

MG Best, EH Christiansen, S de Silva… - …, 2016 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
In continental-margin subduction zones, basalt magmas spawned in the mantle interact with
the crust to produce a broad spectrum of volcanic arc associations. A distinct style of very …

The mechanism of ascent and emplacement of granite magma during transpression: a syntectonic granite paradigm

M Brown, GS Solar - Tectonophysics, 1999 - Elsevier
We propose a model for syntectonic ascent and emplacement of granite magma based on
structural relations in part of the northern Appalachians. In the study area in western Maine …
