Nb-Ta fractionation in peraluminous granites: A marker of the magmatic-hydrothermal transition
- Christophe Ballouard, M. Poujol, +5 authors J. Vigneresse
- Geology
- 1 March 2016
In their late stages of evolution, peraluminous granitic melts exsolve large amounts of fluidswhich can modify the chemical composition of granitic whole-rock samples. The niobium/tantalum (Nb/Ta)… Expand
Tectonic record, magmatic history and hydrothermal alteration in the Hercynian Guérande leucogranite, Armorican Massif, France
- Christophe Ballouard, P. Boulvais, +4 authors M. Cuney
- Geology
- 1 April 2015
Abstract The Guerande peraluminous leucogranite was emplaced at the end of the Carboniferous in the southern part of the Armorican Massif. At the scale of the intrusion, this granite displays… Expand
The origin of water in the primitive Moon as revealed by the lunar highlands samples
- J. Barnes, R. Tartèse, +4 authors S. Russell
- Geology
- 15 March 2014
The recent discoveries of hydrogen (H) bearing species on the lunar surface and in samples derived from the lunar interior have necessitated a paradigm shift in our understanding of the water… Expand
The abundance, distribution, and isotopic composition of Hydrogen in the Moon as revealed by basaltic lunar samples: Implications for the volatile inventory of the Moon
- R. Tartèse, M. Anand, +5 authors Y. Sano
- Geology
- 1 December 2013
Abstract In this study we have measured the OH contents and D/H ratios in apatite grains in lunar basalts. These new data considerably expand the limited dataset published so far. The data presented… Expand
Lunar basalt chronology, mantle differentiation and implications for determining the age of the Moon
- J. F. Snape, A. Nemchin, +10 authors K. H. Joy
- Geology
- 1 October 2016
Despite more than 40 years of studying Apollo samples, the age and early evolution of the Moon remain contentious. Following the formation of the Moon in the aftermath of a giant impact, the result… Expand
Apatites in lunar KREEP basalts: The missing link to understanding the H isotope systematics of the Moon
- R. Tartèse, M. Anand, +4 authors I. A. Franchi
- Geology
- 1 April 2014
Recent re-analyses of lunar samples have undoubtedly measured indigenous water, challenging the paradigm of a “dry” Moon, and arguing that some portions of the lunar interior are as wet as some… Expand
Magmatic volatiles (H, C, N, F, S, Cl) in the lunar mantle, crust, and regolith: Abundances, distributions, processes, and reservoirs
- F. McCubbin, K. V. Kaaden, +11 authors M. Anand
- Geology
- 1 August 2015
Abstract Many studies exist on magmatic volatiles (H, C, N, F, S, Cl) in and on the Moon, within the last several years, that have cast into question the post-Apollo view of lunar formation, the… Expand
Differentiation of peraluminous leucogranites “en route” to the surface
- R. Tartèse, P. Boulvais
- Geology
- 1 February 2010
Abstract Leucogranites display petrological and geochemical heterogeneities that can be related to either primary processes in the source of melts or to secondary processes such as fractional… Expand
Petrology of igneous clasts in Northwest Africa 7034: Implications for the petrologic diversity of the martian crust
- A. R. Santos, C. Agee, +5 authors M. Anand
- Geology
- 15 May 2015
The martian meteorite Northwest Africa (NWA) 7034 was examined both petrographically and geochemically using several micro-beam techniques including electron probe microanalysis and secondary ion… Expand
An asteroidal origin for water in the Moon
- J. Barnes, D. Kring, R. Tartèse, I. Franchi, M. Anand, S. Russell
- Environmental Science, Medicine
- Nature communications
- 31 May 2016
The Apollo-derived tenet of an anhydrous Moon has been contested following measurement of water in several lunar samples that require water to be present in the lunar interior. However, significant… Expand
