Abstract Despite Nb and Ta being considered as 'geochemical twins', most Ta mineral
deposits are associated with muscovite-bearing peraluminous granites and related …

We present a comprehensive geochemical data set for the most recent volcanics from the
Mariana Islands, which provides new constraints on the timing and nature of fluxes from the …

A mantle value of∼ 17.5 for Nb/Ta appears well established; less well established are
crustal values of∼ 11–12, although it appears that Nb/Ta for crustal-derived melts is less …

A systematic study of rare earth and other trace elements in discrete diopsides from residual
abyssal peridotites sampled from 5000 km of ocean ridge demonstrates that they are the …

Northeastern (NE) China is the easternmost part of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB),
which is celebrated for its accretionary tectonics and the world's most important juvenile …

Cpx/melt partition coefficients have been determined by ion probe for 24 trace elements at
natural levels in an alkali basalt experimentally equilibrated at 1,380° C and 3 GPa. One …

Understanding mantle melting above subduction zones requires an evaluation of the
behaviour of elements for which the mantle contribution greatly exceeds any subduction …

In its simplest interpretation, this observation implies only a few thousand years elapse
between'fluid'release from the slab, and eruption of this component in arc lavas. In most …

In situ proton microprobe analyses are used to calculate partition coefficients (D) for Mn, Fe,
Cu, Zr, Ga, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Ba and Pb, and more restricted data for Ni, Ge, Nb and As, in …
