Studies of volatile-bearing silicate minerals: chlorine-cobalt(3) scapolite solution properties and hydrothermal oxidation of synthetic iron biotite

Modern metamorphic petrology is increasingly concerned with the interaction between mineral assemblages and a coexisting fluid phase. Scapolite is a potential mineral indicator of the chloride content in a coexisting fluid. Electron probe microanalysis was performed on natural scapolite and plagioclase pairs from a regionally metamorphosed terrain (450-670;Just as scapolite monitors a...
