The numerous volcanic centres in the Main Ethiopian Rift (MER) present significant but poorly understood hazards to local populations. The MER is also an important site to gain insights into tectonic processes as it captures the transition from conti...

Volatile budgets and evolution in porphyry-related magma systems, determined using apatite (2024)
Journal Article
Lormand, C., Humphreys, M. C., Colby, D. J., Coumans, J. P., Chelle-Michou, C., & Li, W. (2024). Volatile budgets and evolution in porphyry-related magma systems, determined using apatite. Lithos, 480-481, Article 107623. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.lithos.2024.107623

Volatile-bearing minerals, such as apatite, Ca5(PO4)3(OH,F,Cl), can record changes in dissolved magmatic volatile species during differentiation and, unlike melt inclusions, are sensitive to the presence of an exsolved fluid phase. Populations of apa... Read More about Volatile budgets and evolution in porphyry-related magma systems, determined using apatite.
