Mineral-hosted melt inclusions have become an important source of information on
magmatic processes. As the number of melt inclusion studies increases, so does the need to …

Highlights in the field of air analysis included: a new focus on measuring tyre-wear particle
emissions; an interest in using unmanned aerial vehicles for sampling purposes and an …

Continental arc magmas supply the ore-forming element budget of most globally important
porphyry-type ore deposits. However, the processes enabling certain arc segments to …

Trace element composition of hydrothermal quartz reflects the PTX conditions of the
mineralizing fluids and can be a potential tracer of the fluid evolution. To explore this …

Nano-scale secondary ion mass spectroscopy (NanoSIMS) is a powerful tool for determining
the sulfur isotope composition of micrometer-sized minerals. However, the high spatial …

Magmatic-hydrothermal gold–copper deposits in post-subduction settings represent
essential targets for mineral exploration, but controls on their formation remain controversial …

Many epithermal gold and gold-rich porphyry-type ore deposits are associated with potassic
magmas. Hence, potassic magmas are commonly assumed to have been unusually Au-rich …

In the last years, LA-ICP-MS has become an attractive technique for analyzing solid samples
from various research fields. However, application in material science is often hampered by …

The effect of magmatic sulfide precipitation on the potential of magmatic systems to produce
porphyry-type ore deposits is still a matter of debate. In particular, we need to know whether …

Practical methods for determining the ultra‐trace abundances of precious metals in
geological materials are needed for research into magmatic and hydrothermal processes …
