Temperature dependence of Zr in rutile: empirical calibration of a rutile thermometer

T Zack, R Moraes, A Kronz - Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, 2004 - Springer
Rutile is an important carrier of high field strength elements (HFSE; Zr, Nb, Mo, Sn, Sb, Hf,

Refining the P–T records of UHT crustal metamorphism

SL Harley - Journal of metamorphic Geology, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract Ultra‐high‐temperature (UHT) metamorphism occurs when the continental crust is
subjected to temperatures of greater than 900° C at depths of 20–40 km. UHT …
