Metamorphic and magmatic garnets are known to fractionate REE, with generally HREE-
enriched patterns, and high Lu/Hf and Sm/Nd ratios, making them very useful as …

Zircon radiation damage dating is a low-temperature thermochronological method that can
reveal the cooling histories of magmatic intrusions and discriminate sedimentary …

The thermodynamic properties of garnets in the system (Fe^ 2+, Mn^ 2+, Mg, Ca)
3A12Si3O12 are reviewed. The thermodynamic properties of the three end-member garnets …

Resonant ultrasound spectroscopy (RUS) provides a window on the pervasive influence of
strain coupling at phase transitions in perovskites through determination of elastic and …

The grossular-andradite solid solutions in garnet from skarn deposits in relation to
hydrothermal processes and physicochemical conditions of ore formation remain …

An investigation of the dynamic properties of synthetic non-metamict zircon, ZrSiO4, was
undertake n using X-ray single-crystal diffraction and polarized single-crystal Raman …

Vanadium is a multivalent element that may speciate as V2+; V3+; V4+ and V5+ in silicate
and oxide phases. The relative abundance of V in planetary materials can be used as a …

We present major-and trace-element analyses of mineral phases present in a suite of 16
garnet-peridotite xenoliths from the western terrane of the Kaapvaal craton. The xenoliths …

We have studied technogenic, high-uranium zircon, which crystallised from melt formed
during the accident at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in 1986, by confocal Raman …

Sets of lattice parameter data have been obtained from high resolution neutron and
synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction patterns collected in situ as a function of temperature for …
