Proposal for a Unified Classification System of Shock Metamorphosed Planetary Silicate Rocks – Call for Comments
Introduction: Shocked rocks are known from various planetary bodies of the solar system including Earth, Moon, Mars, and several types of asteroids. It was first recognized on Earth that stages of progressive shock metamorphism can be defined [1,2,3,4] and this concept was later on confirmed for lunar rocks [5] and meteorites [6,7,8]. Initiated by the IUGS “Subcommission on the Classification o...
متن کاملThermal modeling and organic geochemical appraisal of petroleum source rocks within the Aghajari Oilfield, SW Iran
Dezful embayment contains several potential source rocks deposited in tectonically active environments. Existence of various source rocks with different geological ages makes this area one of the most prolific regions throughout the Middle East. The Pabdeh Formation (Lower Paleocene-Eocene), the Gurpi Formation (Santonian-Masstrichtian), the Kazhdumi Formation (Albian) and the Gadvan Formation ...
متن کاملPressure, temperature and fluid composition in the Kalaybar aureole, NW Iran; Mineral equilibria in metapelitic and calc-silicate rocks
Intrusion of the Kalaybar nepheline syenite into the Cretaceous pelitic and calcareous sediments has produced a thermal aureole up to 1km thick. Six mineralogical zones are developed in the pelitic rocks with minerals such as cordierite, K feldspar, sillimanite and corundum. Chemically suitable rocks are partially melted in response to the heat from the pluton. Five mineralogical zones are deve...
متن کاملUltrastructural and geochemical characterization of Archean-Paleoproterozoic graphite particles: implications for recognizing traces of life in highly metamorphosed rocks.
Abundant graphite particles occur in amphibolite-grade quartzite of the Archean-Paleoproterozoic Wutai Metamorphic Complex in the Wutaishan area of North China. Petrographic thin section observations suggest that the graphite particles occur within and between quartzite clasts and are heterogeneous in origin. Using HF maceration techniques, the Wutai graphite particles were extracted for furthe...
متن کاملPetrology and mineral chemistry in the Calc-silicates of the Deh-salm metamorphic complex, East of Lut block: evidence of progressive metamorphism to the granulite facies
The Deh-Salm Metamorphic Complex (DMC) is composed of metapelite, metabasite, metaperidotite, and calc-silicate rocks and is one of the few outcrops of the Lut block’s basement which emerged near to the Sistan suture zone. In the eastern part of the Deh-Salm metamorphic complex, the calc-silicate and marble appeared in the form of elongated tectonic lenses that have been metamorphosed in simila...
