Monazite–xenotime thermometry is a potentially powerful technique for understanding the
evolution of Earth systems. While a rich set of experimental and empirical datasets are …

Most methods used for geoheritage inventories do not consider the quantitative assessment
of the geodiversity indicators; consequently, it can happen that some geosites are wrongly …

Allanite is a major host of rare earth elements (REEs) in the continental crust. In this study,
reaction mechanisms behind allanite alteration are investigated through batch experiment …

Abstract The Great Indian Proterozoic Fold Belt (GIPFOB) is a curviplanar highly-tectonized
zone of Precambrian crystalline rocks. In the GIPFOB, the N/NNE-striking western arm (the …

Abstract The Etam Shear Zone is a N to NNE trending strike-slip zone, and it displays a
sinistral shearing mylonitic (ductile) zone and a brittle zone. Field observations and …

ABSTRACT A new geological-structural map of the southern Serre Massif (SM), in the south-
central part of the Calabrian-Peloritani-Orogen (CPO), is provided. CPO is a ribbon-like …

Detachment zones are privileged areas for the interaction between surface-derived fluids
and rocks, potentially leading to ore deposition. However, the hydrodynamics of …

We present an original geological map of the north-eastern Serre Batholith (southern Italy),
together with new field and petrographic data of its main five granitoid units. Our study …

Extreme strain in the form of flattening or constriction during noncoaxial shear in ductile
shear zones provides a record of ductile thrust system dynamics and the overall tectonic …

In this paper, we present petrological constraints on the geodynamic evolution of deformed
granitic rocks in the west Wadi Nugrus area, south Eastern Desert of Egypt. The deformation …
