MARE BASALT PETROGENESIS REVISITED: Rb/Sr, Sm/Nd and Lu/Hf FRACTIONATION FACTORS, MANTLE SOURCE REGIONS AND CRUSTAL CONTAMINATION
Introduction: Many questions regarding the petrogenesis of mare basalts remain unresolved. Trace element and isotope geochemists tend to view the range of mare basalt compositional groups as independent primary magmas and develop mantle melting models to explain the compositional diversity [e.g. 1, 2, 3]. On the other hand, petrologists view the mare basalt suites as non-primary and suggest tha...
متن کاملDistribution coefficients of 60 elements on TODGA resin: application to Ca, Lu, Hf, U and Th isotope geochemistry.
Batch equilibration experiments are conducted to measure the distribution coefficients (K(d)) of a large number of elements in nitric, nitric plus hydrofluoric, and hydrochloric acids on Eichrom TODGA extraction chromatography resin. The K(d)s are used to devise a multi-element extraction scheme for high-precision elemental and isotopic analyses of Ca, Hf, Lu, Th and U in geological materials, ...
متن کاملThe Solar Initial Abundance of Hafnium-176 Revealed by Eucrite Zircon
Introduction: The Lu-Hf decay system can be used to resolve planetary differentiation timescales, but this application requires knowledge of Hf isotopic evolution for bulk planets. Because Lu and Hf are refractory and lithophile, the isotopic evolution of bulk planets and their silicate portions can be reconstructed by back-calculation from the present-day Hf/Hf and Lu/Hf in chondrites [1–3]. H...
متن کاملVariable Hf-Sr-Nd radiogenic isotopic compositions in a Saharan dust storm over the Atlantic: Implications for dust flux to oceans, ice sheets and the terrestrial biosphere
Isotopic characterization of aerosol mineral particles (atmospheric dust) of varying sizes is essential in classifying source areas, and for determining the source of dust deposited over oceans and icesheets. However, the effect of atmospheric transport on radiogenic isotopic compositions is not well constrained, making provenance interpretation difficult. In order to investigate the isotopic v...
متن کاملOrigin of Mesoproterozoic A-type granites in Laurentia: Hf isotope evidence
Granitic rocks are commonly used as a means to study chemical evolution of continental crust. In particular, their isotopic compositions reflect the relative contributions of mantle and crustal sources in their genesis. In Laurentia, a distinctive belt of Mesoproterozoic A-type or “anorogenic” granites of ∼1.4 Ga age was emplaced within composite, heterogeneous Proterozoic crust. Zircons are an...
