************************************************************* From: Dan Harlov <dharlov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ************************************************************* Hi Folks, A session on trace element mobility during metamorphism, igneous processes, and subduction will be offered at the 2009 European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly in Vienna, Austria, April 19 - 24, 2009. GMPV14 Trace element mobility during metamorphism and subduction: Fluids, mineral reactivity, and the mechanics of mass transport Trace elements, such as the Y+REE, actinides, LIL, and HFSE, are one means by which fluid composition and movement in the Earth's crust and upper mantle can be surveyed. Trace element distributions can yield information concerning both the (re)-equilibration of the host rock as well as the evolution of the fluid composition involved, provided the partitioning of the trace elements between the fluid and rock-forming minerals is known. The goal of this session is to explore current research on trace element mobility with regard to their redistribution during contact and regional metamorphism; their behavior during the dehydration and subsequent metamorphism of subducting oceanic crust; as well as their behavior during igneous processes such as spreading oceanic ridge centers or emplacement of granitoid batholiths.
