Post-Archean Granitic Rocks
Author: V. Janoušek
Publisher: Geological Society of London
ISBN: 1786204487
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
Granites (sensu lato) represent the dominant rock-type forming the upper–middle continental crust but their origin remains a matter of long-standing controversy. The granites may result from fractionation of mantle-derived basaltic magmas, or partial melting of different crustal protoliths at contrasting P–T conditions, either water-fluxed or fluid-absent. Consequently, many different mechanisms have been proposed to explain the compositional variability of granites ranging from whole igneous suites down to mineral scale. This book presents an overview of the state of the art, and envisages future avenues towards a better understanding of granite petrogenesis. Particular emphasis of this Volume is on the following topics: Compositional variability of granitic rocks generated in contrasting geodynamic settings during Proterozoic to Phanerozoic Periods, Main permissible mechanisms producing subduction-related granites, Crustal anatexis of different protoliths, and the role of water in granite petrogenesis, New theoretical and analytical tools available for modelling whole-rock geochemistry, in order to decipher the sources and evolution of granitic suites.

Granitic Systems
Author: O.T. Ramo
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 9780444518828
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 430
Book Description
This special volume stems from a symposium 'Granitic Systems - State of the Art and Future Avenues' that was held at the Department of Geology, University of Helsinki to mark the retirement of Professor Ilmari Haapala. The twenty articles in the volume cover a wide range of granite-related topics and focus on three general themes: tectonics and source regions, petrologic processes, and fractionated granites and pegmatites. Both original papers and reviews are included, and the volume will be acknowledged by anyone with a background in Earth Sciences ad a flavor for granitoid rocks. * Comprehensive account of the current status of granite-oriented research * Topics ranging from mineralogy, petrology, and geochemistry to tectonics and crustal evolution

The Evolution of the Crystalline Rocks
Author: David Kenneth Bailey
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780012073452
Category : Alkalic igneous rocks
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In 1928 a new landmark in petrology appeared, with the publication of Bowen's "The Evolution of the Igneous Rocks." There has been an increasing need for a sequel, especially to take into account the developments and consequences of high pressure experimentation, as the gap between Bowen's book and modern experimental petrology grew apace. This volume treats selected areas in depth, and the authors have tried to follow Bowen in producing a perspective view of the subject, advances made, relating the experiments to geological observations, and avoiding as much unfamiliar terminology as possible. This book is a basic text in experimental petrology, intended for earth scientists from the undergraduate level onwards.

Petrogenesis of Metamorphic Rocks
Author: H.G.F. Winkler
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1475742150
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 359
Book Description
The first edition of this book was published in 1965 and its French translation in 1966. The revised second edition followed in 1967 and its Russian translation became available in 1969. Since then, many new petrographie observations and experimental data elucidating reactions in metamorphie rocks have made a new approach in the study of metamor phic transformation desirable and possible. It is feIt that this new approach, attempted in this book, leads to a better understanding of rock metamorphism. The concept of metamorphie facies and subfacies considers asso cations of mineral assemblages from diverse bulk compositions as char acteristie of a certain pressure-temperature range. As new petrographie observations accumulated, it became increasingly difficult to accommo date this information within a manageable framework of metamorphic facies and subfacies. Instead, it turned out that mineral assemblages due to reactions in common rocks of a particular composition provide suita ble indieators of metamorphie conditions. Metamorphic zones, defined on the basis of mineral reactions, very effectively display the evolution of metamorphic rocks. Thus, the importance of reactions in metamor phic rocks is emphasized. Experimental calibration of mineral reactions makes it possible to distinguish reactions which are of petrogenetic sig nificance from those which are not. This distinction provides guidance in petrographie investigations undertaken with the object of deducing the physieal conditions of metamorphism. Within a metamorphie terrain, points indicating the same reaction constitute a line or a band, here designated by the term isoreaction-grad.
