Dear respected participants of 9th Geochemistry Symposium;
As we announced before, selected presentations will be invited to submit “full text” to be published as a peer-review article in a special issue of Geochemistry (formerly Chemie der Erde – Geochemistry) (https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/geochemistry/vol/81/issue/4).
Special issue will be published as one of the four regular issues in 2024.
The schedule is as follows:
- Manuscript submission will end on April 30, 2023 (6 months after the conference)
- Final revised paper submission will end on September 30, 2023 (5 months after the submission)
- Completion of the editorial process by December 31, 2023
The special issue will be the first issue in 2024 (date of publication is February 2024)
SI keywords:
Tethyan Belt, fluid inclusions, radiogenic isotope analysis, stable isotope analysis, geochemical processes, trace elements, geochemical signatures of ore deposits
Topics of the SI:
Evolution of Tethyan Belt as a geologic environment by using geochemistry, fluid inclusions, radiogenic and stable isotopes, petrology and determination of potential exploration targets covering the following aspects amongst others:
- Fluid Inclusion Studies to understand hydrothermal circulations and conditions of fluids
- Stable isotopes to understand fluid sources and environments,
- Alteration chemistry to characterize basement rock interactions with regolith, upper saprolite (oxidized bedrock), lower saprolite (chemically reduced partially weathered rocks), saprock (fractured bedrock with weathering restricted to fracture margins),
- ICP-MS analyses to determine trace and rare earth element constituents and utilization for geologic evolution models with the additional data,
- Radiogenic isotope analysis to model geological evolution, to solve age relations between host and wall rocks and tectonic regime affecting the solutions,
- I, S, M, A-type plutons occasioned geodynamic process characteristics of Tethyan Belt
