PREFACE

High-pressure, synthetic loveringite-davidite and its rare earth element geochemistry

Loveringite-davidite members of the crichtonite group were synthesized at high pressure and temperature (7.5 kbar, 1000-1050 ~ from a melt of TiO2 and rare earth element (REE) enriched basaltic andesite composition. Four sets of partition coefficients for La, Sin, Ho, Lu and Sr (analogue for Eu 2+) were obtained. These show that light and heavy REE are readily accommodated, but the intermediate...
