Variation and fractionation of lithium isotopes within single tourmaline crystals in the pegmatites of the Black Hills, SD
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Extremely large elongated crystals, attributed to low nucleation rates and rapid growth during fast cooling (Nabelek et al., 2010), are just one example of the intriguing and unusual disequilibrium features found in granitic ...
Role of Li and B bearing fluids in crystallization and alteration of granitic pegmatites, San Diego, California
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
The San Diego County pegmatites occur in the Mesozoic Peninsular Ranges Batholith that stretches from southwestern California to Baja California, Mexico. These zoned, lithium-cesium-tantalum type pegmatite dikes intruded ...
On the ability of rocks to conduct heat in the Lithosphere
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
This work focuses on creating a model for the conductive thermal transport properties of rocks using measured thermal diffusivity (D) with the Laser Flash Analysis (LFA) method, which eliminates common errors associated ...
