The Bearing of Lead Isotopes on the Source of Granitic Magma
The isotopic composition of lead was measured in Mesozoic and Cenozoic igneous rocks (including volcanic glasses, olivine basalts, and potassium feldspars from granitic rocks) o...
Contrasting styles of Pre‐Cenozoic and Mid‐Tertiary crustal evolution in northern Mexico: Evidence from deep crustal xenoliths from La olivina
The principal deep crustal rock types found at the La Olivina xenolith locality in southeastern Chihuahua, Mexico, are mafic granulites, paragneisses, and intermediate‐ to silic...
A contribution to the nomenclature and classification of volcanic rocks
Summary At present one is not able to devise a single, standard classification of igneous rocks that is acceptable to all petrologists. This is mainly because igneous petrology ...
