Tourmaline developed under low-temperature conditions (<~ 300° C) typically has
distinctive morphological and chemical characteristics that reveal significant information …

Tourmaline is the most important borosilicate mineral because of its ubiquity and the
diversity of petrologic information that it can yield. In metamorphic rocks tourmaline can …

Tourmaline occurs in diverse types of hydrothermal mineral deposits and can be used to
constrain the nature and evolution of ore-forming fluids. Because of its broad range in …

Detrital tourmaline grains and their associated tourmaline overgrowths provide a means to
unravel the provenance and petrogenetic history of low grade clastic metasedimentary …

Tourmaline group minerals can be useful for petrogenetic studies due to their refractory
nature, chemical and isotopic variability, and widespread occurrence in many geologic …

Tourmaline studies have expanded in breadth and greatly increased in number since 1977,
when micro-analytical and crystallographic/spectroscopic instrumentation became widely …

Abstract© 2018, Czech Geological Survey. All rights reserved. Tourmaline uniquely records
evidence of its geologic history in its composition and, if properly decoded, provides insight …

Tourmaline supergroup minerals with fibrous morphology record and respond to changing
conditions in fluid-rich hydrothermal environments. Based on published data, hand …

Tourmaline-supergroup minerals are ubiquitous accessory minerals in rocks of the Earth's
crust. They can adjust their composition to suit a wide variety of environments, and therefore …

Tourmaline, a mineral often overlooked in petrologic studies, is shown to be a useful
petrogenetic indicator mineral. Despite the large number of possible substitutions in …
