bouin- miandasht granitoid pluton (bmgp), which outcropped to the north of bouin-miandasht- aligoudarz road, was emplaced into low to medium grade of triassic to early jurassic metapelitic rocks of sanandaj-sirjan structural zone. in this study we do provide the first investigations of bmgp by means of anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (ams). most km values for the main felsic compositions ...

The Big Jim complex is a concentrically zoned ultramafic to felsic plutonic complex which intruded the pelitic Chiwaukum schist. Most of the major plutonic rock types (from websterite through hornblendite, gabbronorite, hornblende gabbro and diorite, to granodiorite) enclose harzburgite and metaperidotite xenoliths similar to foliated metaperidotite lenses included in the Chiwaukum schist. The ...

The late Precambrian Shadli Metavolcanics of SE Egypt constitute a slightly metamorphosed bimodal sequence that has been previously interpreted as manifesting volcanic activity at an island arc. We report the first Rb-Sr geochronologic, trace element (including REE), and Nd isotopic data for these rocks. Two types of basalt are recognized, the stratigraphically lower suite having compositions l...

tourmaline can be found as an accessory mineral in a variety of rocks including leucogranite, pegmatite, quartz veins, and metamorphiccountry rocks in hajiabad-dehgah area in se of boroujerd city. tourmaline in pegmatites is coarse-grained, subhedral to euhedral, anddisplays strong to moderate pleochroic blue rimmed by olive green. in contrast, tourmalines from leucogranite, quartz-veins, and h...

The Hunt Mo skarn deposit is one of the best examples of a late tectonic, granitic pegmatite-related, skarn system in the Grenville province. An Re-Os age of 1069 ± 11 Ma was obtained from a molybdenite crystal (6.4 ppm Re) hosted in proximal skarn (sample 50O) consistent with a contact metasomatic origin related to the granitic body. Although less evolved than other Grenvillian pegmatites, the...

Located at the eastern segment of Tethyan Himalayan tectonic unit, Cuonadong leucogranites (muscovite granite and pegmatite) have a mineral assemblage quartz, plagioclase, alkali feldspar, as well muscovite garnet. Garnets in both pegmatite belong to almandine–spessartine solid solution, with minor andradite, grossular, pyrope, show specific Mn zoning relatively rim-ward depletion trend. Howeve...

Volcanic eruptions are unpredictable phenomena that pose a challenge to crisis management, owing the fact contrasted eruptive styles (explosive versus effusive) exhibited at surface depend on unobservable deep processes occurring in reservoir and volcanic conduit. Constricting behaviour of magma during ascent, degassing particular, allows for clearer understanding relationships between petrolog...
