Published in 2018 at "American Journal of Science"

DOI: 10.2475/07.2018.01

Abstract: Weathering-induced fracturing (WIF) has been posited to be a mechanism that develops secondary porosity when mineral reaction fronts separate over depth intervals in regolith, and, in particular, when oxidation (which can promote porosity development through… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/min15030281

Abstract: The widespread occurrence of Mesozoic ocean island basalt (OIB)-like igneous rocks in the Southern Tibetan Himalayan Belt provides important constraints on the rifting of East Gondwana. This study undertook a petrological, geochronological, and geochemical investigation… read more here.
