Zinc isotope evidence for carbonate alteration of oceanic crustal protoliths of cratonic eclogites

Boron isotope fractionation in magma via crustal carbonate dissolution

Carbon dioxide released by arc volcanoes is widely considered to originate from the mantle and from subducted sediments. Fluids released from upper arc carbonates, however, have recently been proposed to help modulate arc CO2 fluxes. Here we use boron as a tracer, which substitutes for carbon in limestone, to further investigate crustal carbonate degassing in volcanic arcs. We performed laborat...

Oceanic molybdenum isotope fractionation: Diagenesis and hydrothermal ridgeâ•’flank alteration

[1] Isotopic analyses of dissolved molybdenum are presented for sediment pore waters from a reducing sedimentary basin and for fluids from a low-temperature ridge flank hydrothermal system. dMo in these fluids range from 0.8 to 3.5% (relative to a laboratory standard), demonstrating that marine sedimentary reactions significantly fractionate Mo isotopes. Within the upper 3 cm of sediment, manga...

Spectral Evidence for a Brucite-carbonate Alteration Assemblage on Ceres

Introduction: The dwarf planet Ceres is the largest object in the asteroid belt and is a primary target of NASA’s Dawn mission [1]. Recent modeling has shown that Ceres is likely differentiated and consists of a thin silicate+ice crust underlain by a thicker water ice mantle [2,3]. The presence of hydrated phases on Ceres, as inferred from the 3 μm absorption feature present in surface reflecta...
