Hi Folks,
V023: Mineralization, Metasomatism and Mass Transfer Associated with Crustal Magmas
Society is increasingly relying on
mineral resources for high technology and green industries. The aim of
this session is to explore advances made on the partitioning behavior
of elements during fluid-rock
interaction and the effects of metasomatic processes in mineralization
associated with crustal magmatic processes. Advances have been made in
studies of porphyry to epithermal ore deposits in volcanic and orogenic
provinces using analytical approaches such
as geochronology, isotopic analyses, and in situ LA-ICP-MS
analyses of fluid inclusions. In contrast, rare earth element and
other so-called critical element deposits
such as peralkaline granitic, alkaline syenitic, carbonatites,
pegmatites, and the IOCG related systems are still poorly understood.
Metasomatic zones developed during ore forming processes in
magmatic-hydrothermal systems yield key insights for element
partitioning
and mass transfer in the crust. We welcome contributions showing
advances from field studies, numerical modeling, and experimental work.
Please encourage your students, postdocs, etc. to contribute to the session.
The on-line abstract submission deadline is August 5, 2015.
Should any questions arise as to the suitability of the topic for an abstract to the session, please feel free to contact me.
Best regards,
Alex Gysi
