AbstractThe Jarawa Younger Granite complex is composed of high silica alkali granites that were emplaced 161 Ma ago. The granites are characterized by high contents of Rb, Li, F, Sn, Nb, W above normal low-Ca granitic rocks and have typical S-type characteristics that are indicative of a substantial component of crustal melt.Mineralization in the complex is associated with the biotite granite which was emplaced as a sheet-like body at relatively shallow depth and occurs as disseminations and as greisen lodes and veins.Chemical studies of the granites have shown that the biotite granite represe

Gabal El Urf region is located in the northern Egyptian Eastern Desert and overlain essentially by older and younger granitoids of Late Proterozoic age. These granitoids contain numerous outcrops of pegmatites, mostly occurring as dikes and veins or huge separated masses. In the contrary, pegmatites form lens-like bodies enclosed within the younger granites along their margins. Previous radiometric surveys showed anomalous concentrations of radioactivity on pegmatite body, located to the south of the study region.

These Ranikhet granites are Rb rich and Sr poor, they reveal peraluminous characteristics and correspond to the S-type granites.

At the same time, there still remain questions about the genetic nature of Berdychiv granites.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT We present a textural analysis study based on the combination of ultrasonic testing (UT) and mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) of 36 Westerly granite (WG) samples exposed to different heating temperatures in the range between 100°C and 800°C. Specimens subjected to elevated temperature treatment were also subjected to the thin section analysis. Identical WG cylindrical specimens with diameter 11.5 and height 15 mm were used for UT and MIP study. UT of all specimens was made by P and S wave 1 MHz resonant frequency sensors. It was found that P-S wave velocity, amplitude, frequency an

Abstract:
A prominent magnetic low along an eastern portion of the Paleoproterozoic Taltson magmatic zone (TMZ) correlates mainly with the youngest granitoid in the zone, the peraluminous ca. 1936 Ma Konth granite. Flanking belts of higher magnetic intensity coincide mainly with slightly older Taltson plutonic rocks (e.g. ca. 1986 Ma Deskenatlata granodiorite, ca. 1955 Ma Slave granite) to the west and Neoarchean and/or Paleoproterozic gneisses of the Rae Craton to the east. A prominent gravity low along a portion of the northeastern margin of the TMZ correlates mainly with the Konth granite. Modelling

Abstract:
The Mooshla Intrusive Complex (MIC) is an Archean polyphase magmatic body located in the Doyon-Bousquet-LaRonde (DBL) mining camp of the Abitibi greenstone belt, Québec, that is spatially associated with numerous gold (Au)-rich VMS, epizonal 'intrusion-related' Au-Cu vein systems, and shear zone-hosted (orogenic?) Au deposits. To elucidate the P-T conditions of crystallization, and oxidation state of the MIC magmas, accessory minerals (zircon, rutile, titanite) have been characterized using a variety of analytical techniques (e.g., trace element thermobarometry). The resulting trace element an

Abstract:
Wind Cave National Park (WICA), the first cave in the world to become a national park, is famous for the park’s namesake feature. Wind Cave, named for the noticeable wind-flow patterns observed as air moves in and out of the natural cave entrance, is currently the third longest cave system in the United States and seventh longest in the world. Wind Cave formed when groundwater dissolved buried layers of the fossiliferous Madison Limestone, which were deposited during the Mississippian subperiod approximately 359 to 347 million years ago. In addition to the Madison Limestone, several other form

Abstract:
Between 2.62 and 2.58 Ga, Rae Province was intruded from Lake Athabasca to Melville Peninsula (more than 1700 km) by mafic to felsic plutons (Snow Island Suite), and overlain by volcanic rocks that are now mostly preserved beneath Paleoproterozoic basins. The Snow Island Suite was preceded by offshore arc volcanism and possible back-arc basin activity, with a U-Pb age peak at 2.635 Ga (Marjorie peak). About 50% of the Snow Island Suite is an infracrustal granitoid with K-enriched and tonalitic subtypes; the remainder lies on a sanukitoid spectrum. The sanukitoidal rocks are dominantly orthopyr
