Subduction zones not only return oceanic lithosphere into the mantle, but are also sites
where chemical components are transferred from the downgoing plate back to the surface in …

Metals such as Cu, Mo, Au, Sn, and W in porphyry and related epithermal mineral deposits
are derived predominantly from the associated magmas, via magmatic–hydrothermal fluids …

This work focuses on a rigorous analysis of the physical–chemical, compositional and
textural relationships of amphibole stability and the development of new thermobarometric …

The transport of water from subducting crust into the mantle is mainly dictated by the stability
of hydrous minerals in subduction zones. The thermal structure of subduction zones is a key …

The pressure–temperature (P–T) conditions for producing adakite/tonalite–trondhjemite–
granodiorite (TTG) magmas from lower crust compositions are still open to debate. We have …

Water is a key ingredient in the generation of magmas in subduction zones. This review
focuses on the role of water in the generation of magmas in the mantle wedge, the factors …

Fluids and melts liberated from subducting oceanic crust recycle lithophile elements back
into the mantle wedge, facilitate melting and ultimately lead to prolific subduction-zone arc …

Subduction is the main process that recycles surface material into the mantle. Fluids and
melts derived by dehydration and partial melting reactions of subducted continental crust, a …

Subducted crust refertilizes the subarc mantle wedge as well as the deep convecting mantle.
In the subarc region, mass transfer occurs mainly through fluids, melts, or supercritical …

The phase and melting relations in subducted pelites have been investigated experimentally
at conditions relevant for slabs at sub-arc depths (T= 600–1050° C, P= 2· 5–4· 5 GPa). The …
