Water-fluxed melting, also known as fluid-or water-present melting, is a fundamental process
in the differentiation of continents but its importance has been underestimated in the past 20 …

Ultrahigh temperature (UHT) metamorphism is the most thermally extreme form of regional
crustal metamorphism, with temperatures exceeding 900° C. UHT crustal metamorphism is …

We have melted metapelitic rocks from the High Himalayan Crystalline Sequence that are
likely sources of leucogranite magmas. Starting materials were a muscovite schist and a …

Peraluminous granitoid magmas are a characteristic product of ultrametamorphism leading
to anatexis of aluminous metasedimentary rocks in the continental crust. The mechanisms …

Island arcs, active and passive margins are the best tectonic settings to generate fertile
reservoirs likely to be involved in subsequent granitoid genesis. In such environments …

Fluid-absent melting experiments on a biotite (20 wt.%) and hornblende (2 wt.%) bearing
tonalitic gneiss were conducted at 6 kbar (900–975° C), 10 kbar (875–1075° C), and 14 kbar …

This study assesses temperatures of formation of common granulites by combining
experimental constraints on the P–T stability of granulite-facies mineral associations with a …

An empirical model for solution of Ti in biotite is developed and calibrated on the basis of
various equilibria among biotite and Ti-saturating assemblages. Sources of data used for the …

Dehydration melting of tonalitic compositions (phlogopite or biotite-plagioclase-quartz
assemblages) is investigated within a temperature range of 700–1000° C and pressure …
