Phosphate, silicate, and oxide minerals as monitors of geodynamic processes

Experiments involving phosphate and silicate minerals cover a wide range of minerals and fluid compositions.

High-grade fluid metasomatism in the lower crust and upper mantle

The chemical and physical evolution and stability of the mid to lower crust and upper mantle can be strongly affected by fluids such as H₂O, CO₂, and KCl/NaCl/CaCl₂ brines.

Studies of high-grade fluid metasomatism in the lower crust and upper mantle include:

Changes in the mineral chemistry across traverses of both regional and localised dehydration zones. In these studies, solid-state dehydration by low H₂O activity fluids has been and is currently being utilized to demonstrate how hornblende and/or biotite react with quartz to form orthopyroxene +/- clinopyroxene, feldspar and a fluid phase during granulite-facies metamorphism. Low H₂O activity fluids include those with a significant CO₂ and/or (Na,K)Cl-CaCl₂ brine component. Such fluids have been proposed to play a significant role during the granulite-facies metamorphism of basaltic and granitoid rocks in the lower crust.

SIMS analysis of 29 zircon separates across a regional (100 km) traverse of late Archean, lower crust, Shevaroy Block, Tamil Nadu, South India to study how zircon HREE and actinide chemistry, along with U-Th-Pb dating, change during metamorphism. One of the purposes of this study is to understand how potential fluids, streaming upwards from the crust-mantle boundary, could influence gradations in mineral chemistry and REE distribution along the traverse.
