Growth Oscillatory Zoning in Erythrite, Ideally Co3(AsO4)28H2O: Structural Variations in Vivianite-Group Minerals
The crystal structure of an oscillatory zoned erythrite sample from Aghbar mine, Bou Azzer, Morocco, was refined using synchrotron high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction (HRPXRD) data, Rietveld refinement, space group C2/m, and Z = 2. The crystal contains two sets of oscillatory zones that appear to have developed during epitaxial growth. The unit-cell parameters obtained are a = 10.24799(3) ...
متن کاملTrace Element Behavior in Martian Evaporite Minerals: Experimental Constraints
Introduction: The Mars Exploration Rovers have detected distinctive suites of evaporite minerals at the Martian surface precipitated from fluids derived from basaltic weathering under low pH conditions. Orbital spectroscopic observations have confirmed the global distributions of these materials. The formation and stability of evaporite assemblages have been well modeled at Meridiani Planum for...
متن کاملHydrothermal impacts on trace element and isotope ocean biogeochemistry
Hydrothermal activity occurs in all ocean basins, releasing high concentrations of key trace elements and isotopes (TEIs) into the oceans. Importantly, the calculated rate of entrainment of the entire ocean volume through turbulently mixing buoyant hydrothermal plumes is so vigorous as to be comparable to that of deep-ocean thermohaline circulation. Consequently, biogeochemical processes active...
متن کاملMinor and Trace Element Zoning in Pallasite Olivine: Modeling Pallasite Thermal History
Introduction: Pallasites are stony-iron meteorites that consist of comparable volumes of olivine and Fe-Ni metal. It is widely believed that pallasites were formed at the interface of the metallic core and peridotitic mantle in differentiated asteroid(s) [1,2]. Fe-Ni metal in pallasites exhibits Widmanstätten structure indicative of slow cooling (~10 C/yr) [3,4]. These metallographic cooling ra...
متن کاملA study of cathodoluminescence and trace element compositional zoning in natural quartz from volcanic rocks: mapping titanium content in quartz.
This article concerns application of cathodoluminescence (CL) spectroscopy to volcanic quartz and its utility in assessing variation in trace quantities of Ti within individual crystals. CL spectroscopy provides useful details of intragrain compositional variability and structure but generally limited quantitative information on element abundances. Microbeam analysis can provide such informatio...
