Water-fluxed melting, also known as fluid-or water-present melting, is a fundamental process
in the differentiation of continents but its importance has been underestimated in the past 20 …

Continental arcs are the sites of production of continental crust, but the origin of these
magmatic systems is not well understood. Although a number of processes have been …

At low temperatures (< 750 C at moderate to high crustal pressures), the production of
sufficient melt to reach the melt connectivity transition (∼ 7 vol%), enabling melt drainage …

Amphibole thermodynamics are approximated with the symmetric formalism (regular
solution model for within-site non-ideality and a reciprocal solution model for cross-site …

The origin of different kinds of granitic rocks is examined within the framework of
experimental studies of melting of metamorphic rocks, and of reaction between basaltic …

Many studies of experimental petrology have devoted to partial melting of crustal rocks. In
order to provide lithochemical constraints on granite petrogenesis, this paper presents a …

There is currently a dearth of reliable thermobarometers for many hornblende and
plagioclase-bearing rocks such as granitoids and amphibolites. A semi-empirical …

We have melted metapelitic rocks from the High Himalayan Crystalline Sequence that are
likely sources of leucogranite magmas. Starting materials were a muscovite schist and a …

A residual-source model for the origin of A-type granites is assessed by examining the likely
mineral content and geochemistry of the residue remaining from generation of an I-type …
