A recent research paper in Lithos by Dr Ashima Saikia and team reports the age of an ophiolitic anorthosite for the first-time from the ophiolite occurrences of India. Magmatic zircons from the anorthosite yielded an age of 93.2 ± 1.0 Ma representing the time of ophiolite formation. [Click here to read the research paper]

With the help of thermodynamic modelling, Dr. Anindita Dey and her team show how the combination of multiple factors like unavailibility of fluid, element mobility, and rapid exhumation results in the formation of complex reaction textures like corona in a recent research paper published in the Journal of Petrology.
