Release of oxidizing fluids in subduction zones recorded by iron isotope zonation in garnet (2019)
Journal Article
Gerrits, A. R., Inglis, E., Dragovic, B., Starr, P. G., Baxter, E. F., & Burton, K. (2019). Release of oxidizing fluids in subduction zones recorded by iron isotope zonation in garnet. Nature Geoscience, 12, 1029-1033. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41561-019-0471-y

Subduction zones are key regions of chemical and mass transfer between the Earth’s surface and mantle. During subduction, oxidized material is carried into the mantle and large amounts of water are released due to the breakdown of hydrous minerals su...

Detrital zircons from Late Paleozoic to Triassic sedimentary rocks of the Gongshan-Baoshan Block, SE Tibet: Implications for episodic crustal growth of Eastern Gondwana (2019)
Journal Article
Song, Y., Su, L., Dong, J., Song, S., Allen, M. B., Wang, C., & Hu, X. (2020). Detrital zircons from Late Paleozoic to Triassic sedimentary rocks of the Gongshan-Baoshan Block, SE Tibet: Implications for episodic crustal growth of Eastern Gondwana. Journal of Asian Earth Sciences, 188, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jseaes.2019.104106

The Gongshan-Baoshan Block is a segment of the northern Sibumasu Terrane, which is a continental strip derived from Eastern Gondwana. However, the formation history of the Gongshan-Baoshan Block and its relationship with other East Gondwana-derived b...

Thallium isotopic composition of phlogopite in kimberlite-hosted MARID and PIC mantle xenoliths (2019)
Journal Article
Fitzpayne, A., Prytulak, J., Giuliani, A., & Hergt, J. (2020). Thallium isotopic composition of phlogopite in kimberlite-hosted MARID and PIC mantle xenoliths. Chemical Geology, 531, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemgeo.2019.119347

MARID (Mica-Amphibole-Rutile-Ilmenite-Diopside) and PIC (Phlogopite-Ilmenite-Clinopyroxene) rocks are rare mantle xenoliths entrained by kimberlites. Their high phlogopite modes (15 to ∼100 vol.%) and consequent enrichments in alkali metals and H2O s...

190Pt-186Os geochronometer reveals open system behaviour of 190Pt-4He isotope system (2019)
Journal Article
Luguet, A., Nowell, G., Pushkarev, E., Ballhaus, C., Wirth, R., Schreiber, A., & Gottman, I. (2019). 190Pt-186Os geochronometer reveals open system behaviour of 190Pt-4He isotope system. Geochemical perspectives letters, 2, 44-48. https://doi.org/10.7185/geochemlet.1924

Platinum Group Minerals are typically dated using the 187Re-187Os and 190Pt-186Os isotope systems and more recently using the 190Pt-4He geochronometer. The 187Re-187Os and 190Pt-186Os compositions of Pt-alloys from the Kondyor Zoned Ultramafic Comple...

Magma fragmentation in highly explosive basaltic eruptions induced by rapid crystallisation (2019)
Journal Article
Arzilli, F., La Spina, G., Burton, M., Polacci, M., Le Gall, N., Hartley, M., …Lee, P. (2019). Magma fragmentation in highly explosive basaltic eruptions induced by rapid crystallisation. Nature Geoscience, 12, 1023-1028. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41561-019-0468-6

Basaltic eruptions are the most common form of volcanism on Earth and planetary bodies. The low viscosity of basaltic magmas inhibits fragmentation, which favours effusive and lava-fountaining activity, yet highly explosive, hazardous basaltic erupti...

Molybdenum systematics of subducted crust record extensive, reactive flow from underlying slab-serpentine dehydration (2019)
Journal Article
Chen, S., Hin, R., John, T., Brooker, R., Bryan, B., Niu, Y., & Elliott, T. (2019). Molybdenum systematics of subducted crust record extensive, reactive flow from underlying slab-serpentine dehydration. Nature Communications, 10, Article 4773. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-12696-3

Fluids liberated from subducting slabs are critical in global geochemical cycles. We investigate the behaviour of Mo during slab dehydration using two suites of exhumed fragments of subducted, oceanic lithosphere. Our samples display a positive corre...

Structural inheritance in the North Atlantic (2019)
Journal Article
Schiffer, C., Doré, A. G., Foulger, G. R., Franke, D., Geoffroy, L., Gernigon, L., …Welford, K. (2020). Structural inheritance in the North Atlantic. Earth-Science Reviews, 206, Article 102975. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2019.102975

The North Atlantic, extending from the Charlie Gibbs Fracture Zone to the north Norway-Greenland-Svalbard margins, is regarded as both a classic case of structural inheritance and an exemplar for the Wilson-cycle concept. This paper examines differen... Read More about Structural inheritance in the North Atlantic.
