Dear Colleagues, I apologise for cross-posting. I am currently compiling a database of monazite- and allanite- bearing metamorphic rocks to better understand the effects of bulk rock chemistry on the stability of monazite and allanite during low- to high-grade metamorphism. While I have already gathered a substantial amount of data, I am certain that there is much more information available out there. If you are currently working on or have previously conducted research in this area, I would greatly appreciate your sharing any relevant data with me. Specifically, I am looking for: Bulk rock chemistry (major elements + trace elements, if available) Presence of monazite or monazite + allanite, or only allanite (including any replacement textures in either direction) Monazite age(s) and the corresponding metamorphic conditions A rough chemical composition of monazite, if available You can send text files, tables, figures, or complete papers from which I can extract the necessary information. I assure of course that all contributions will be appropriately cited in any resulting publication. Thank you in advance for your help! Best regards, Dominik P.S. If you are not working on metamorphic rocks, I plan to include igneous rocks in a later phase. Therefore, I would be happy to receive any data on igneous rocks as well. -- Dominik SorgerResearch Associate | Geoscience CenterMineralogy and PetrologyUniversity of Göttingen, Germany Goldschmidtstraße 1, D-37077 GöttingenPhone: +49 551 39 21685dominik.sorger@uni-goettingen.dewww.uni-goettingen.de
