Hi,
Treatise on Geochemistry is being updated, and I've agreed to revise
my chapter on Geochemical Zoning in Metamorphic Minerals. I wrote that
chapter 8 years ago (and rather quickly...), and it needs work.
Briefly, the chapter is subdivided into sections on zoning in major
elements, trace elements, stable isotopes, and radiogenic isotopes
(chronology). Each section provides theory/modeling and natural
examples.
I'm writing to request your help. I would greatly appreciate any
comments on theory/models (especially if I made any errors!), and
especially any post 2002 references to spectacular examples of zoning.
I know there's been a lot of development for radiogenic and stable
isotopes, so those sections will need significant revision, at least
for the examples. And although I do know some good recent papers, I
don't want to miss anything.
Apologies for cross-listing, and thanks in advance for references and
any comments,
Matt
