Abstract. Clinopyroxene-only thermobarometry is one of the most practical tools to reconstruct crystallization pressures and temperatures clinopyroxenes. Because it does not require any information coexisting silicate melt or other co-crystallized mineral phases, has been widely used elucidate physiochemical conditions crystallizing magmas. However, previously calibrated clinopyroxene-only ther...

Abstract Centrifuge-assisted piston cylinder experiments were conducted on plagioclase in basaltic melt at 1140–1250 °C, 0.42–0.84 GPa and mostly 1000 g. One set of assesses the settling velocity a dilute suspension; second sinks or floats MORB-type exploring conditions neutral buoyancy; third examines floatation from an evolved lunar magma ocean composition. A compaction rate for cumulates is ...

Abstract Variable single and/or swarms of post-granitic dikes are widespread at Gabal Serbal, Southwestern Sinai, Egypt. The present article aims to identify and discriminate these multiphase through detailed geological, petrographical, geochemical examinations. These classified into two subphases: (1) acidic (porphyritic dacite, microgranite, granophyre, alkaline granophyre dikes); (2) basic (...

The recurrent explosive eruptions of Calbuco (Andean Southern Volcanic Zone (SVZ)) threat a rapidly expanding touristic and economic region Chile. Providing tighter constraints on its magmatic system is therefore important for better monitoring activity. also distinguished by hornblende-bearing assemblages that contrast with the anhydrous parageneses most Central SVZ volcanoes. Here we build pr...

jian cu deposit is hosted by surian volcano-sedimentary complex of permo-triassic age on the eastern edge of the sanandaj-sirjan metamorphic zone at a distance of 195 km from shiraz, southwestern iran. the complex consists mainly of metabasalt, chlorite-quartz schist, chlorite-muscovite schist, mica schist and graphite schist. pyrite is the most important sulfide and chalcopyrite is the major c...

Copyright © Korean Carbon Society http://carbonlett.org Abstract The use of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as a reinforcing material in a polymer matrix has increased in various industries. In this study, the flexural behavior of CNT-modified epoxy/ basalt (CNT/epoxy/basalt) composites is investigated. The effects of CNT modification with silane on the flexural properties of CNT/epoxy/basalt composite...

Experimental studies on basalt fiber have been performed in China and abroad. Specifically, the compressive properties, flexural properties, splitting tensile properties and impact test behavior of chopped basalt fiber-reinforced concrete have been investigated. In addition, the effects of the mixing amount of fibers on the mechanical properties of C30 concrete were scrutinized, and the best mi...

The Kab Amiri area in the Central Eastern Desert (CED) of Egypt comprises ophiolitic rocks, island arc metasediments, and granitic rocks. This study deals with petrography geochemistry rocks to understand their petrogenesis geodynamic evolution CED belt. ophiolite is dismembered, comprising serpentinites metabasalt (spilite). Serpentinites have low contents Al2O3 (1.14 wt%) CaO (0.65 wt%), sugg...

This paper reports the detailed examination of three basalt clasts from Apollo 16 breccia 60639 that represent a new variant of high-Ti basalt returned from the Moon by the Apollo 16 mission. Mineral chemistry and whole-rock analyses were conducted on aliquots from three clasts (breccia matrix, basalt, and basalt + breccia matrix). The basalt clasts, which are not overtly porphyritic, contain c...
