Deep Fault Drilling Project DFDP-1 and -2 – Operational data sets

Sutherland, Rupert | Townend, John | Toy, Virginia

2017

New Zealand’s Alpine Fault is a site of global importance for the study of active geological faults. The Alpine Fault provides an opportunity to study a major fault late in the cycle of stress accumulation ahead of a future earthquake, to search for precursors to large earthquakes, and to...

Geochemical data of crystalline target lithologies of the Ries impact crater, Germany

Schmitt, Ralf-Thomas | Hecht, Lutz | Stöffler, Dieter | Siegert, Susann

2017

This data set comprises major (XRF) and trace (XRF, ICP-MS, ICP-AES) element geochemistry of 185 samples of crystalline target lithologies of the Nördlinger Ries impact crater in Southern Germany. The sample set was originally collected by D. Stöffler for the investigation of shock metamorphism...

2025

In this data publication field data and measurements of the Gt BTrKoe 1a/2024 sidetrack, drilled by the GFZ Helmholtz Centre for Geosciences in Berlin, Germany, are reported. Moreover, additional grain-size analysis on core material of the main well (Gt BTrKoe 1/2021) are provided. The main...

Major, minor, and trace element contents of cassiterite from the Neves Corvo Cu-Zn-Pb(-Sn) deposit (Portugal)

Codeço, Marta S. | Gleeson, Sarah A. | Barrote, Vitor | Relvas, Jorge M.R.S. | Wilke, Franziska D. H.

2026

Understanding the chemical composition of cassiterite provides critical insights into the evolution of mineralizing systems and the processes that concentrate strategic metals in ore deposits. The Neves Corvo Cu–Zn–Pb(–Sn) deposit, located within the Iberian Pyrite Belt (IBP), represents one of...

Survey for critical raw materials in Rwanda East African Rift geothermal areas

Wilke, Franziska D. H. | Ntihabose, Leon | Karangwa, Eugene | Stammeier, Jessica | Zimmer, Martin | Strauch, Bettina | Niedermann, Samuel | Regenspurg, Simona

2026

The East African Rift System (EARS) continues south of the Afar Crossing in Ethiopia through Kenya and then splits into two branches: the western branch, which runs through Uganda and Rwanda, and the eastern branch, which runs through Tanzania. Both unite in Malawi. Magmatic activity began 20...

Geochemical Composition of Tephra Layers Found in Varved Sediment Records Globally

Wilkinson-Rowe, Eloise | Beckett, Anna | Blanchet, Cécile | Brauser, Alexander | Ehrmann, Holger | Kearney, Rebecca | Martin-Puertas, Celia | Matthews, Ian | McLean, Danielle | Palmer, Adrian | Brauer, Achim

2026

The database contains major and trace element compositions associated with tephra layers found in varved sediment records globally. Associated with each sediment record and tephra layer are metadata relating to site parameters and analytical conditions. Analyses of secondary standards, where...

T-LAB: Global Maps of the Thermal Lithosphere-Asthenosphere Boundary Derived from Shear-Wave Tomography Models and Mineral Physics Constraints

Bott, Judith | May, Tilman | Kumar, Ajay | Schiller, Carl Josef | Scheck-Wenderoth, Magdalena

2026

The lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary (LAB) marks the base of the Earth’s outer layer where heat is transferred primarily by conduction as compared to prevailing convective heat transport below. Spatial variations in LAB depth reveal the differential evolution of tectonic systems (e.g.,...

Geochemical, Geochronology, Oxygen Isotope and EPMA data from a kyanite-grade migmatite in the Higher Himalaya Crystallines along Bhagirathi Valley

Kushwaha, Aman | Singh, Sandeep | Putlitz, Benita | Prabha-Mohan, Shashank | S. Wiiliam, Ian | P. Baumgartner, Lukas | Epard , Jean-Luc

2025

The study addresses the factors that controls the major and trace element geochemistry of melts produced during fluid-present partial melting of metasediments. The data has been obtained to understand the origin of leucosomes in a kyanite-grade migmatite of Higher Himalaya Crystallines along...
