*************************************************** 2006 Goldschmidt session V7-01: Call For Abstracts *************************************************** From: Joseph Pyle <pylej@xxxxxxx> 16th Annual VM Goldschmidt Conference Melbourne, Australia 27 August - 1 September 2006 Special Session S7-01: Accessory phases and trace elements: links between geochronology and petrology Through variations in texture, isotopic and chemical composition, accessory phases record changes in parameters including pressure, temperature, stress, fluid composition, and mineral assemblage. Dating of accessory minerals has the potential to link these parameters with time, allowing petrologists to access segments of the overall temporal variation in P-T-X-deformation within a rock cycle. This symposium addresses analytical instrumentation, trace-element and isotope markers, and theoretical modeling used to correlate accessory mineral ages with unique conditions or processes occurring in tectonometamorphic and magmatic events. We have an outstanding lineup of keynote and invited speakers slated for this session: Keynotes: *John C. Ayers, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee, USA. *Ian Fitzsimons, Curtin University, Perth, Western Australia, Australia. Invited Speakers: - Ian Buick - Monash University, Australia - Hans-Jürgen Förster - Universität Potsdam, Germany - Dan Harlov - GeoForschungsZentrum Germany - Nigel Kelly - University of Edinburgh, UK - Anne-Magali Seydoux Guillaume - Laboratoire des Mécanismes et Transferts en Géologie, France - Andreas Möller - Universität Potsdam, Germany This session is one of several special sessions under the overall theme of "Geochemical constraints on timescales and mechanisms of tectonic processes ". We are actively soliciting contributed abstracts on accessory phase and/or trace element oriented studies rooted both in nature and experiment. The abstract deadline for the 2006 Goldschmidt Conference is 13 April 2006. We look forward to your contributions, and gathering in Melbourne in August.
