Published in 2017 at "Lithos"

DOI: 10.1016/j.lithos.2017.01.020

Abstract: Abstract Abundant mafic enclaves are enclosed within the Quxu batholith in the eastern Gangdese magmatic belt, southern Tibet. This study focuses on the petrogenesis and affinity of these mafic enclaves with their host diorite-granodiorite, as… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Lithos"

DOI: 10.1016/j.lithos.2021.106358

Abstract: Abstract This study examines five rock units related to the Tashisayi chrysoberyl-bearing granitic batholith, Altyn Tagh, NW China: biotite granite, two-mica granite, muscovite granite, granitic pegmatite, and the surrounding biotite plagiogneiss. Three types of tourmalines… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Tectonics"

DOI: 10.1029/2019tc005772

Abstract: Prominent preexisting structural heterogeneities within the lithosphere may localize or partition deformation during tectonic events. The NE‐trending Great South Basin, offshore New Zealand, formed perpendicular to a series of underlying crustal terranes, including the dominantly… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "South African Journal of Geology"

DOI: 10.25131/sajg.123.0029

Abstract: The granitic and leucogranitic Yas and Schuitdrift Gneisses occur together as a large ovoid pre-tectonic batholith that crosses the Orange River border between South Africa and Namibia. They occur in the central parts of the… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Moscow University Geology Bulletin"

DOI: 10.3103/s0145875219040045

Abstract: Successive differentiates of acid rocks from the Salmi batholith are represented by the following series: biotite–amphibole rapakivi granite, biotite granite, and highly differentiated granites (Li-siderophyllite and Li–F zinnwaldite varieties). There is a gradual increase in… read more here.
