Petrochronology based on REE-minerals: monazite, allanite, xenotime, apatite

M Engi - Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry, 2017 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Monazite, xenotime, and allanite are REE 1-minerals sensu stricto because lanthanides
(La… Lu) and yttrium are critical constituents in them. Apatite does not require REE, but …

Garnet: A rock-forming mineral petrochronometer

EF Baxter, MJ Caddick… - Reviews in Mineralogy …, 2017 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Garnet could be the ultimate petrochronometer. Not only can you date it directly (with an
accuracy and precision that may surprise some), but it is also a common rock-forming and …

Fluid flow in the deep crust

JJ Ague, RL Rudnick - The crust, 2003 - books.google.com
The heating and burial of rock masses during mountain building drives chemical reactions
that liberate volatile fluid species (Figure 1). These volatiles, including H2O, CO₂, and CH4 …
