Micro-Geochemistry of Clinopyroxene of the Mafic Dykes in the Jiaodong Peninsula: Implications for Petrogenesis and Geodynamic
Early Cretaceous mafic dykes widely spread in the Jiaodong Peninsula and provided significant evidence for geodynamic of the studied area. Based on... -
Zinc isotopes reveal disparate enriched sources of contemporary lamprophyres in Eastern Dharwar Craton
Lamprophyres are mantle-derived rocks characterized by enrichment of incompatible elements and volatiles; however, the origin of their enriched...
