U-Pb dating of zircons from quartz diorite and its enclaves at Tongguanshan in Anhui and its petrogenetic implication
Xisheng Xu,Xisheng Xu,Qincheng Fan,Suzanne Y. O'Reilly,Shao-Yong Jiang,William L. Griffin,Rucheng Wang,Jiansheng Qiu +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the genesis of intermediate-silicic intrusive rocks and their enclaves in Tongling were studied using approaches of petrography, electron microprobe mineral chemistry and the LA-ICPMS zircon U-Pb dating.

Neoarchean (2.7–2.8 Ga) accretion beneath the North China Craton: U–Pb age, trace elements and Hf isotopes of zircons in diamondiferous kimberlites
Jianping Zheng,Jianping Zheng,William L. Griffin,Suzanne Y. O'Reilly,Jun-Hong Zhao,Yuan-Bao Wu,G.L. Liu,Norman J. Pearson,Ming Zhang,Changqian Ma,Zhihong Zhang,Chunmei Yu,Yuping Su,Huayun Tang +13 more
TL;DR: Zircon xenocrysts from the Early Paleozoic Mengyin and Fuxian diamondiferous kimberlites, on opposite sides of the translithospheric Tanlu fault in the North China Craton, have been used to probe the deep crust as discussed by the authors.

In situ Re-Os isotopic analysis of platinum-group minerals from the Mayarí-Cristal ophiolitic massif (Mayarí-Baracoa Ophiolitic Belt, eastern Cuba): implications for the origin of Os-isotope heterogeneities in podiform chromitites
Claudio Marchesi,Claudio Marchesi,José María González-Jiménez,Fernando Gervilla,Carlos J. Garrido,William L. Griffin,Suzanne Y. O'Reilly,Joaquín A. Proenza,Norman J. Pearson +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the variability of the Os budget of a single micrometric grain derives from fertile domains of the upper mantle, whose bulk Os isotopic composition is best approximated by that of enstatite chondrites; on the other hand, most PGM are crystallized by melts that tapped highly refractory mantle sources.

Alkaline magmatism from Kutch, NW India: implications for plume–lithosphere interaction
N. R. Karmalkar,N. R. Karmalkar,Sonal Rege,Sonal Rege,William L. Griffin,William L. Griffin,Suzanne Y. O'Reilly +6 more
TL;DR: The trace element systematics of these rocks are similar to those of ocean-island basalts, but there is considerable compositional variation, which is related to a strong overprint from the lithosphere on plume-derived magmas as mentioned in this paper.

Sulfides in mantle peridotites from Penghu Islands, Taiwan : melt percolation, PGE fractionation, and the lithospheric evolution of the South China block
Kuo-Lung Wang,Kuo-Lung Wang,Suzanne Y. O'Reilly,William L. Griffin,Norman J. Pearson,Ming Zhang +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the major elements, highly siderophile elements (HSE) and Re-Os isotope ratios were analyzed in situ on individual sulfide grains in spinel peridotite xenoliths hosted by Miocene intraplate basalts from the Penghu Islands, Taiwan.
