Geothermometry and Geobarometry for Mineralising Systems

Description of impact

In 1991, we published a means of determining the fluorine contents of late-stage mineralising fluids applied to a particular unit in Greenland. This has been referenced and adopted in this review by Mineral Resources Tasmania

Who is affected

Academics and exploration companies looking to constrain the fluorine content of ancient mineraslising fluids.

Narrative

The document provides a comprehensive list of geothermometers, geobarometers, and H2O and CO2 activity calculations available in the literature up to May 1992. It includes a list of calculations that can be performed using Excel files, as well as a list of models available in the literature for calculating mineral end-member activities. The document also includes a list of references for the calculations and models. The document is primarily focused on providing a resource for researchers and scientists working in the field of metamorphic petrology.
