Whole-rock geochemistry of metamorphosed mafic rocks from Mt. Sangun area, Fukuoka, Kyushu

Whole-rock Geochemistry and Metamorphism of Blueschist/eclogite-facies Mafic Rocks on Syros, Cyclades, Greece

The island of Syros consists largely of possibly-repeated sequences of glaucophane-bearing calcareous schists, mafic schists, dolomite marbles, and calcite marbles containing abundant aragonite pseudomorphs (Dixon, 1969; Hecht, 1984). Several discrete, fault-bounded packages of blueschist/eclogite-facies mafic rocks with minor serpentinite are also found on the island. Although the mafic rocks ...

Geochemistry of metapelitic rocks from the Garmichay Area, East Azerbaijan, NW Iran; protolith nature and whole rock control on metamorphic mineral assemblages

The protoliths of metamorphosed argillaceous rocks from the Garmichay area in the East Azerbaijan province of NW Iran were clay-rich sediments of reworked nature, originating most likely from an andesite to andesite-basalt source and deposited in an active continental margin tectonic setting. The protoliths of the Garmichay metapelites experienced low to moderate chemical weathering. Andalusite...

Petrology and geochemistry of whole rock of Shahdad meteorites

In this study, meteorite pieces, with total weight of 259 grams, have been studied which is not listed in the world bulletin of meteorites. In order to classify these samples, after preparing microscopic thin sections and performing accurate petrography, using geochemical data of the major elements and trace elements of whole rock, obtained from XRF and ICPMS methods in Zarazma company’s labora...
