Abstract The Takidani pluton (1·1–1·6 Ma) represents a shallow magmatic reservoir at the base of an exhumed caldera floor. deposits two large caldera-forming eruptions, Nyukawa Pyroclastic Flow Deposit (1·76 Ma; crystal-rich dacite) and Chayano Tuff Ebisutoge Deposits (1·75 sequence crystal-poor rhyolite), are distributed concentrically around pluton. We use major trace element chemistry whole-...

The upper continental crust is formed from chemically diverse granitic plutons. Active debate surrounds the range of physical conditions (P-T-X- f O 2 ) and differentiation processes which occur in mush bodies that solidify to form Transition metal stable isotopes are increasingly employed trace magmatic both extrusive lavas intrusive plutonic suites, with a focus on analysis whole rock powders...

Scottish ‘Newer Granites’ record the evolution of Caledonides resulting from Iapetus subduction and slab breakoff during Silurian–Devonian Scandian Orogeny, but relationships between geodynamics, petrogenesis emplacement are incomplete. Laser ablation U–Pb results magmatic zircons at Cluanie Pluton (Northern Highlands) identify clusters concordant Silurian data points. A cluster with a weighted...
