Skarn deposits are one of the more abundant ore types in the earth's crust and form in rocks
of almost all ages. Skarn is a relatively simple rock type defined by a mineralogy usually …

Somma-Vesuvius (SV) is an active volcanic system in southern Italy that has generated
Plinian eruptions during its history as the infamous 79 CE (Pompeii) eruption. Plinian …

Comprehensive reviews are given for the major volcanic systems that occur in the greater
metropolitan area of Naples, southern Italy; Mt. Somma-Vesuvius to the east and the Campi …

There is considerable evidence for continuing, late-stage interaction between the magmatic
system at Merapi volcano, Indonesia, and local crustal carbonate (limestone). Calc-silicate …

Lead isotope analysis is an increasingly widespread tool in the study of environmental
pollution as Pb isotope compositions do not change during industrial and environmental …

The results of an experimental study of limestone assimilation by hydrated basaltic magmas
in the range 1,050–1,150° C, 0.1–500 MPa are reported. Alkali basalts doped with up to 19 …

Merapi volcano, Indonesia, is a highly active arc volcano built upon a crustal succession that
includes thick carbonate sequences. Calc-silicate (skarn) xenoliths are frequently found in …

Despite nearly forty years of modern research on silicate melt inclusions (MI), only within the
past 10–15 years have volcanologists and petrologists come to regularly accept their utility …

Melt inclusions (MI) are small droplets of melt now containing some combination of crystals,
glass and vapor that are trapped in crystals formed in magmas. Over the past few decades …

Recent phase equilibrium studies, combined with analytical and petrological data, provide
rigorous constraints on the pre-eruptive PTf H 2 0-fO 2-fS 2-fCO 2 conditions of silicic to …
