Carbonatites are igneous rocks formed in the crust by fractional crystallization of carbonate-
rich parental melts that are mostly mantle derived. They dominantly consist of carbonate …

The intricate convergence of tectonic plates and the interplay between landmasses and
oceans in subduction zones give rise to marine geo-hazards, encompassing catastrophic …

Carbonate melts produced by partial melting of the carbonated mantle or by liquid
immiscibility from mantle-derived silicate melts provide insights into the deep carbon cycle …

Subduction recycling of sediments plays a key role in the geochemical evolution of Earth.
The presence of recycled terrigenous sediments in upwelling plumes has been cited to …

The elevated pressure and temperature conditions encountered by a subducted slab
entering the deep Earth can substantially alter the chemical composition and physical …

The cratonic crust contains abundant mineral deposits of metals such as gold, copper and
rare earths,,,–and is underlain by a thick mantle lithosphere rich in the volatiles carbon …

The hadal zone at trenches is a unique region where forearc mantle rocks are directly
exposed at the ocean floor owing to tectonic erosion. Circulation of seawater in the mantle …

Volcanic activity can cause regional earthquakes before or during an eruption, while violent
earthquakes are capable of changing static and dynamic stress-fields that may consequently …

Carbonate melts play an essential role in the deep carbon cycle between Earth's surface
and interior. Most previous studies proposed that the source of carbonate melt resulted from …

Carbonatites are mantle-derived rocks associated with rare earth element deposits and their
origin is debated. The majority of carbonatites are found in proximity to old continental crust …
