Ringwoodite Lamellae in Olivine from the L6 S6 Chondrite Tenham: Constraints on the Transformation Mechanism

1. Introduction High-pressure minerals, produced by shock metamorphism, are common in and around melt veins in highly shocked chondrites [1-8]. These minerals either crystallized from silicate melt in the shock-vein or formed by solid-state transformed from host-rock fragments entrained in the melt or along shock-vein margins [3]. The study of these high pressure minerals can give us a better u...

The studied area, as Ykeh-Chah unit, is a part of Golpayegan magmatic and metamorphic complex in Sanandaj-Sirjan structural zone. The unit consists of mylonitized and high- grade metamorphic rocks, including biotite-gneiss, biotite-garnet-gneiss, amphibolite and orthogneiss. The biotite gneiss and the biotite garnet gneiss have partly been migmatitized. They show various structures such as stro...

Shock Metamorphism of Martian Meteorites: New Data from Quantitative Shock

Introduction: The Martian origin of the group of SNCO’s comprising now 16 different meteorites is widely accepted [1]. The ejection of these meteorites from Mars requires an impact process which necessarily involves a certain level of shock metamorphism affecting the meteorites to get accelerated to Martian escape velocity. Previous studies [2 and ref. in 1] clearly showed that all 16 Martian m...

بررسی ترکیب شیمیایی و دگرگونی کانیها در طول فرایند دگرگونیهای مختلف در منطقه همدان

Metamorphic rocks of the Hamadan region have experienced regional and also contact metamorphism (due to intrusion of gabbro, diorite and granitic bodies), therefore, their mineral assemblages have formed in multiple stages. Evidence of regional metamorphism (M) and contact metamorphisms at the contact of gabbros (M’1) and porphyroid granites (M’2) are separatable, hower At the contact of h...

Cathodoluminescence Microscopy and Spectroscopy of Shocked Zircon from the Vredefort Imapct

Introduction: Zircon is a highly refractory and weathering-resistant mineral that has proven useful as an indicator of shock metamorphism in the study of impact structures and formations (e.g., [1-6]). Zircon has advantages compared to quartz or other shockmetamorphosed rock-forming minerals that have been widely used as impact indicators, but are far less refractory than zircon. The purpose of...
