Characterising post-medieval pottery production centres in Somerset
(Medieval Pottery Research Group, 20 December 2019)Post-medieval pottery made in Somerset is distinct from wares produced elsewhere in the south-west of England. Recent experimental work and scientific analysis, combined with study of finds from fieldwork, has led to a ... -
Elemental distributions and mineral parageneses of the Skaergaard PGE-Au mineralisation: consequences of accumulation, redistribution, and equilibration in an upward-migrating mush zone
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 5 December 2019)The Skaergaard PGE-Au mineralisation, aka the Platinova Reef, is a syn-magmatic Platinum Group Element (PGE) and gold (Au) mineralisation that formed after crystallisation of ∼74% of the bulk melt of the intrusion. It is ... -
Volcanic–plutonic connection and associated Au‐Cu mineralization of the Tulasu ore district, Western Tianshan, NW China: Implications for mineralization potential in Palaeozoic arc terranes
(Wiley, 2020)Constructing the plutonic–volcanic connections in volcanic arc setting is essential for understanding a variety of magmatic processes from continental crust differentiation to formation of magmatic-hydrothermal ore deposits. ... -
The Weaklaw Vent, SE Scotland: Metasomatism of eruptive products by carbo-hydro-fluids of probable mantle origin
(Cambridge University Press, 21 October 2019)The Weaklaw vent in SE Scotland (East Lothian coast), inferred to be Namurian, produced lava spatter and volcanic bombs. The latter commonly contained ultramafic xenoliths. All were metasomatised by carbonic fluids rich ... -
Rapid localized flank inflation and implications for potential slope instability at Tungurahua volcano, Ecuador
(Elsevier, 2020)High rates of volcano surface deformation can be indicative of a forthcoming eruption, but can also relate to slope instability and possible flank collapse. Tungurahua volcano, Ecuador, has been persistently active since ...
