The thermodynamic properties of 154 mineral end‐members, 13 silicate liquid end‐members and 22 aqueous fluid species are presented in a revised updated data set. use temperature‐dependent thermal expansion bulk modulus, the high‐pressure equations state for solids fluids, allows calculation mineral–fluid equilibria to 100 kbar pressure or higher. A pressure‐dependent Landau model order–disorder permits extension disordering transitions high pressures, and, particular, alpha–beta quartz...

Abstract We discuss the use of regression diagnostics combined with nonlinear least-squares to refine cell parameters from powder diffraction data, presenting a method which minimizes residuals in experimentally-determined quantity (usually 2θ hkl or energy, E ). Regression diagnostics, particularly deletion are invaluable detection outliers and influential data could be deleterious regressed results. The usual practice simple inspection calculated alone often fails detect seriously dataset,...

This new set includes data for 123 mineral fluid end‐members made consistent with over 200 P–T–X CO2 – f O2 phase equilibrium experiments. Several improvements advances have been made, in addition to increased coverage phases: are now presented three groups ranked according reliability; large number iron‐bearing phases has included through experimental...

Abstract Improved activity–composition relationships for biotite, garnet and silicate liquid are used to construct updated P – T grids pseudosections high‐grade metapelites. The biotite model involves Ti charge‐balanced by hydrogen deprotonation on the hydroxyl site, following substitution , where HD represents site. Relative equivalent biotite‐breakdown melting reactions in K 2 O–FeO–MgO–Al O 3 –SiO –H (KFMASH), those O–TiO –O (KFMASHTO) occur at temperatures close 50 °C higher. A further...

Abstract Mixing properties for muscovite–celadonite–ferroceladonite solid solutions are derived from combining available experimental phase equilibrium data with tabulated thermodynamic mineral end‐members. When a partially ordered solution model is assumed, the enthalpy of mixing among end‐members nearly ideal, although Gibbs energies muscovite–celadonite and muscovite–ferroceladonite asymmetric due to an asymmetry in entropy mixing. Thermodynamic consistency achieved on phengite...

In a thermodynamic description of mineral solid solution, it is customary to select minimal group end-members that constitutes an independent set, and yet in practical calculations commonly occurs different set or subset required. Given the simplification symmetric formalism, straightforward derive enthalpies formation dependent as well interaction energies between new terms those original set. For example, simplified ternary solution Fe-free Ca-amphiboles might be described with tremolite,...
Abstract Thermobarometry, the estimation of pressure–temperature ( P – T ) conditions metamorphism, can be undertaken by using pseudosection calculations as well conventional methods. Conventional thermobarometry uses only equilibrium thermodynamics balanced reactions between end‐members minerals, combined with observed compositions minerals. In contrast, pseudosections involve a forward calculation mineral equilibria for given rock composition. When related to data such assemblages,...
Abstract A recent thermodynamic model for the Na–Ca clinoamphiboles in system Na 2 O–CaO–FeO–MgO–Al O 3 –SiO –H O–O (NCFMASHO), is improved, and extended to include cummingtonite–grunerite orthoamphiboles, anthophyllite gedrite.
