Geochemistry, geothermometry, and K-Ar dating of episyenitic rocks associated with the Guarda uraniferous granites, Portugal
The Guarda granite underwent a continuous hydrothermal alteration process from K/Na-to H-and to Ca-metasomatism. No changes of REEs distribution were observed during late-to post-magmatic processes. Uremobiliz...

Smectite-to-illite alteration in salt-bearing bentonites (The East Slovak Basin)
The effect of a saline environment on illitization in volcanoclastic rocks is examined in deep boreholes in the East Slovak Basin. Based on X-ray diffraction analysis, it is concluded that illite-smectite (I–S...

Migration of Folding and Metamorphism in the Rheinische Schiefergebirge Deduced from K-Ar and Rb-Sr Age Determinations
In the very low- to low-grade metamorphic Rhenohercynian Zone of the Variscides a migration of folding has been postulated which was deduced from the shifting of flysch sedimentation.
