LIP printing is a term adapted from forensic science to describe the use of geochemical
proxies for tectonic and petrogenetic fingerprinting of Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs). Here …

Extremely voluminous magmatic systems known as large igneous provinces (LIPs)
punctuate Earth's history, and the gases they release plausibly link large-scale geodynamic …

Two geochemical proxies are particularly important for the identification and classification of
oceanic basalts: the Th–Nb proxy for crustal input and hence for demonstrating an oceanic …

IGNEOUS ROCKS AND PROCESSES A practical introduction to igneous petrology for
students and practitioners The newly revised Second Edition of Igneous Rocks and …

Several methods have been developed to assess the thermal state of the mantle below
oceanic ridges, islands, and plateaus, on the basis of the petrology and geochemistry of …

An upgrade of the PRIMELT algorithm for calculating primary magma composition is given
together with its implementation in PRIMELT3 MEGA. xlsm software. It supersedes …

Mantle temperatures during the Archaean eon were higher than today. As a consequence,
the primary crust formed at the time is thought to have been extensive, thick and magnesium …

Picritic lava flows near Lijiang in the late Permian Emeishan flood basalt province are
associated with augite-phyric basalt, aphyric basalt, and basaltic pyroclastic units. The …

Systematic differences are observed in the petrology and major element geochemistry of
natural peridotite samples from the sea floor near oceanic ridges and subduction zones, the …

We report major and trace element composition, Sr–Nd isotopic and seismological data for a
picrite–basalt–rhyolite suite from the northern Tarim uplift (NTU), northwest China. The …
