DOI: 10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2020.107039
Abstract: Abstract We conducted a petrological study of the layered gabbros and peridotites outcropping in the cirque of Salazie, combining field investigations, geochemistry, petrography and, mineralogy to constrain the magmatic evolution of Piton des Neiges volcano… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2017.08.039
Abstract: Abstract To understand the volcano-tectonic history of Piton des Neiges (the dormant volcano of La Reunion), we measured in the field the orientation of sheeted intrusions and deformation structures, and interpreted the two datasets separately… read more here.
