Earth's “missing” chlorine may be in the core

L Yuan, G Steinle‐Neumann - Journal of Geophysical …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
The budget of volatile halogens in the bulk silicate Earth, fluorine and chlorine, differs
distinctly from that of chondritic meteorites. Arguably, the bulk silicate Earth shows a low …

Thermal stability of F‐rich phlogopite and K‐richterite during partial melting of metasomatized mantle peridotite with implications for deep Earth volatile cycles

ES Steenstra, M Klaver, J Berndt… - Journal of …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Phlogopite and K‐richterite constitute important carrier phases for H and F in Earth's
