Over the past decade, our knowledge of the geochemical and mineralogical diversity of
Martian rocks has greatly increased. Rocks on the surface of Mars are older than most …

Core segregation and atmosphere formation are two of the major processes that redistribute
the volatile elements—hydrogen (H), carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and sulfur (S)—in and around …

Magnesium isotopic fractionation during basalt differentiation is commonly thought to be
negligible at current levels of analytical precision. However, Mg isotopic variation of∼ …

Identification of possible factors that affect Li-mineralizing potential is important to the
understanding of the genesis of Li pegmatites. This study provides a comprehensive …

In order to investigate possible Ca isotopic fractionation during basaltic magma
differentiation, we measured Ca isotopic compositions of lavas recovered from Kilauea Iki …

In recent decades, new Ti-based thermometers have found widespread use in geosciences,
providing a convenient and powerful tool for investigating the crystallization temperatures of …

Large Ca isotope variations recorded in mantle xenoliths and mantle-derived igneous rocks
have been widely used to decode the origin of mantle heterogeneity, especially to trace …

Active, large volume, silicic magma systems are potentially the most hazardous form of
volcanism on Earth. Knowledge of the location, size, and physical properties of silicic …

Three episodes of mafic magmatism are identified by zircon and baddeleyite U-Pb dating at
2299±17 Ma, 1703±8 Ma and 1511±14 Ma in the southwestern Yangtze Block. These mafic …

This study presents stable Mg isotopic data for Cenozoic potassic basalts from Wudalianchi
and Erkeshan in northeastern China to determine the interactions between upwelling …
