Routine characterization and interpretation of complex alkali feldspar intergrowths†k
Almost all alkali feldspar crystals contain a rich inventory of exsolution, twin, and domain microtextures that form subsequent to crystal growth and provide a record of the thermal history of the crystal and often of its involvement in replacement reactions, sometimes multiple. Microtextures strongly influence the subsequent behavior of feldspars at low temperatures during diagenesis and weath...
متن کاملسنگشناسی و ژئوشیمی باتولیت قوشچی، شمال غرب ایران
The Ghoshchi batholith, ~150 km2 in size is a granitoidic pluton, which intruded the Permian country rocks, in Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone, NW Iran. This granitoidic pluton is covered by Oligocene-Miocene sedimentary rocks known as Qom Formation. The Ghoshchi batholith comprises five plutons with following compositions: (a) gabbro-diorite (b) biotite granite, (c) alkali granite, (d) syenites, and (e) ...
متن کاملAdditional Constraints on the Crystallization of Basaltic Shergottite
Introduction: QUE 94201 (QUE) is a basaltic shergottite containing subequal amounts of pyroxene and plagioclase, the latter having been converted to maskelynite by shock (Fig. 1) [e.g., 1-3]. Pyroxene occurs as elongate subhedral to euhedral grains up to several mm in length. It has extensive and complex zoning (Fig 1). Typical grains have Mg-rich pigeonite cores mantled by Mg-rich augite, whic...
متن کاملShock Deformation Texture of Olivine Crystals of the Eeta79001 Shergottite
All the shergottite meteorites display intense shock metamorphisms. Especially, plagioclase shows a characteristic shock feature: formation of diaplectic glass (maskelynite) or melting (Duke, 1968; McSween and Stoffler, 1980; McSween and Jarosewich, 1983). By studying the shergottite meteorites, we can get a better understanding of the nature of shock metamorphism of olivine, in comparison with...

NWA 2700 and NWA 2977 Paired With NWA 773: NWA 2700 is a 31.7 gram stone consisting of small gabbro clasts plus regolith breccia matrix (see Figure 1). The olivine gabbro contains ~50 vol.% olivine (Fa29.3-34.7; FeO/MnO = 94), pigeonite (Fs2228.3Wo5.6-10; FeO/MnO = 52), augite (Fs13.2Wo38.5), plagioclase and minor maskelynite (An89), Ba-rich alkali feldspar (Or92An4, BaO up to 8.9 wt.%), Crspin...
