Abstract:
Airborne thermal‐infrared multispectral scanner (TIMS) data of the Iron Hill carbonatite‐alkalic igneous rock complex in south‐central Colorado are analyzed using a new spectral emissivity ratio algorithm and confirmed by field examination using existing 1:24 000‐scale geologic maps and petrographic studies. Color composite images show that the alkalic rocks could be clearly identified and that differences existed among alkalic rocks in several parts of the complex. An unsupervised classification algorithm defines four alkalic rock classes within the complex: biotitic pyroxenite, uncompahgrite

The Litchfield pluton is a poorly exposed 7 km2 composite alkalic intrusive complex that cuts previously deformed and metamorphosed Silurian turbidites in south-central Maine. The pluton includes a variety of alkaline syenites, including the type locality of “litchfieldite”, a coarse-grained cancrinite, sodalite, and lepidomelane bearing nepheline syenite first recognized over 150 years ago and common in many petrologic collections. A new U-Pb zircon age of 321 ± 2 Ma from the nepheline syenite is interpreted to represent the crystallization age of the plutonic complex. A new biotite 40Ar/39Ar

AbstractCathodoluminescence (CL) petrography of nepheline syenites of the Igaliko complex, Gardar province, South Greenland shows that sodalites possess embayed contacts against nepheline, and have formed by a process of metasomatic replacement. This texture is demonstrated clearly by CL, since sodalite luminesces bright orange and nepheline is poorly luminescent. The transformation from nepheline to sodalite results in a volume change which leads to a network of fractures in which deep-blue luminescent fluorite is precipitated.

Abstract:
Authigenic K-feldspar of apparent low-temperature origin is widespread in the uppermost part of the two main Precambrian basement terranes of Ohio: the subsurface extension of the Grenville Province of Canada, and the anorogenic granite–rhyolite terrane of the Transcontinental Proterozoic Province of the United States. The authigenic K-feldspar occurs mainly as a replacement of both primary K-feldspar and albitic plagioclase in a variety of igneous and metamorphic rocks and can be identified by a salmon color in plane or ordinary light, moderate to low optic angle, monoclinic or triclinic symm

AbstractThe geochemical evolution of tin-tungsten deposits and their associated sulphides can be discussed in terms of four sequential processes: acquisition of the ore-forming elements (OFEs) by the granitic magma, emplacement of these elements in minerals and residual melt of the crystallizing granite, release of the OFEs to the circulating hydrothermal fluids and transport to the depositional sites, and finally, deposition of ore minerals through interaction of these fluids with the wall rock. Based on their crystallographic behaviour, it is useful to distinguish three principal classes of

AbstractThe ultra-alkaline rocks have exotic features that frustrated many attempts to group them in a single classification diagram. A consistent classification would be very useful to define a possible consanguinity, an argument that feed a living debate.

Abstract:
Study of petrological and geochemical characteristics of mantle peridotite xenoliths in Pliocene alkaline basalt in Nghia Dan (West Nghe An) was carried out. Rock-forming clinopyroxenes, the major trace element containers, were separated from the xenoliths to analyze for major, trace element and Sr-Nd isotopic compositions. The data were interpreted for source geochemical characteristics and geodynamic processes of the lithospheric mantle beneath the region. The peridotite xenoliths being mostly spinel-lherzolites in composition, are residual entities having been produced following partial mel

Minettes exposed in southern Alberta near the Milk River are the northern outliers of the Eocene Sweet Grass Hills igneous complex of the Montana alkalic igneous province. These minettes often contain coarse-grained xenoliths of phlogopite + clinopyroxene ± apatite. The parent magmas of the minettes were generated at pressures [Formula: see text]17 kbar in equilibrium with clinopyroxene + phlogopite ± olivine. Fractional crystallization and mixing provided a spectrum of evolved minettes and cumulates, the latter of which were sampled by subsequent minette magmas as xenoliths. Two xenoliths wer

AbstractNoonkanbahite, ideally BaKNaTi2(Si4O12)O2, is described as a new mineral species. At Liley [Löhley], Eifel Mountains, Germany (the holotype locality), it occurs as sprays of prismatic crystals (up to 8 mm) or single prismatic crystals (up to 4 mm) on walls of cavities in alkaline igneous rocks. At Murun, Siberia, Russia, noonkanbahite forms coarse lamellar crystals up to 0.05 cm × 0.7 cm × 1.5 cm embedded in kalsilite syenite. Noonkanbahite is brittle, H = 6, Dobs. = 3.39(1), Dcalc. = 3.49 g/cm3, has a vitreous lustre and does not fluoresce in ultraviolet light. It has poor cleavage on

Late Precambrian volcanic–sedimentary belts in the Mira (Avalon) terrane of southeastern Cape Breton Island display differences in rock types, petrochemistry, and age, showing that they did not form contemporaneously above a single northwest-dipping subduction zone, as proposed in earlier models. The oldest rocks are 680 Ma mafic and felsic flows and tuffs, and abundant, mainly tuffaceous, sedimentary rocks in the Stirling belt. They are interpreted to have formed in a trough within or peripheral to a volcanic-arc complex. Northwest of the Stirling belt, the East Bay Hills, Coxheath Hills, and

AbstractThe Oligocene Lar igneous complex is located in the Sistan suture zone of Iran, being emplaced in Paleocene to Eocene flysch-type rocks. This complex includes mainly intermediate K-rich volcanic (trachyte, latite and andesite) and plutonic (syenite and monzonite) rocks that belong to shoshonitic magma. The geochemical characteristics of the Lar igneous complex, such as an enrichment of LREE and LILE relative to HREE and HFSE, respectively, a negative anomaly of Ti, Ba and Nb and a positive anomaly of Rb and Th are similar to those of arc-type igneous rocks.
