Lava – substrate interaction: constraints on perlitic hydration and low temperature mineralization, Lebuj rhyolitic flow, Tokaj Mountains, Carpathian-Pannonian region
Abstract:<p>The silicic flows and domes can impose mechanical and thermal stress on the underlying substrate causing mineralization and lithification of granular bodies. In addition, the released water from the permeable substrate as dominant volatile species can contribute to the glass hydration of the flow. This fluid-lava interaction can be directly studied in ancient successions with exposed contacts. The Lebuj flow (Tokaj Mountains, Hungary) developed in a Miocene caldera setting, where the erosion r… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
