Abstract Magnetite (Fe 3 O 4) is a well-recognized petrogenetic indicator and is a common
accessory mineral in many ore deposits and their host rocks. Recent years have seen an …

Rutile is the most common naturally occurring titanium dioxide polymorph and is widely
distributed as an accessory mineral in metamorphic rocks ranging from greenschist to …

Subduction is the main process that recycles surface material into the mantle. Fluids and
melts derived by dehydration and partial melting reactions of subducted continental crust, a …

This study investigates the behaviour of the Zr-in-rutile and Ti-in-zircon thermometers in
granulite facies metapelites from the Ivrea-Verbano Zone lower crustal section. U–Pb ages …

The kaolinite-group minerals kaolinite, dickite, nacrite, halloysite including its metaform and
their associates allophane and imogolite are phyllosilicates characterized by a rather simple …

Type and amount of sediment generation are intimately connected to tectonic and climatic
processes active at the earth's surface today as well as throughout the geologic past. Detrital …

Rutile is a common accessory mineral that occurs in a wide spectrum of metamorphic rocks,
such as in blueschists, eclogites, and granulites and as one of the most stable detrital heavy …

The present paper reports trace element concentrations of 15 elements (V, Cr, Fe, Zr, Nb,
Mo, Sn, Sb, Hf, Ta, W, Lu, Pb, Th and U) as well as Pb and Hf isotope data for four relatively …

In situ laser ablation ICP-MS U–Pb dating of metamorphic rutile from granulite facies
metapelitic rocks of the Archaean Pikwitonei granulite domain (Manitoba, Canada) provides …

Rutile is a robust heavy mineral that can survive multiple sedimentary cycles. It is common in
high-grade metamorphic rocks and hydrothermally-altered rocks. Hence, it can be a …
