Petrologic Investigations into the Magmatic Processes That lead to Au, Ag, and Base Metal Fertility: Insights from Pebble, Alaska and the Emigrant Pass Volcanic Field, Nevada

Creator:: Olson, Nansen H.
Abstract:: Magmatic-hydrothermal ore deposits are giant geochemical anomalies in the earth’s crust most often generated by normal magmatic terrestrial processes. They are often associated with oxidized and hydrous intermediate to highly evolved magmas that have concentrated metals and have the necessary components to efficiently extract and transport them as ascending magmatic-hydrothermal...

The Deschutes Formation: evidence of extension-enhanced explosivity in the early High Cascades

Creator:: Pitcher, Bradley W.
Abstract:: The eruptive history of the Quaternary Cascades arc has been relatively well characterized. However, much less is known about the frequency and sizes of explosive eruptions produced by earlier stages of the arc. The Late Neogene Deschutes Formation of Central Oregon preserves a remarkable record of heightened pyroclastic activity during...

Controls on eruption style and magma compositions at Mount Hood, Oregon

Creator:: Koleszar, Alison M.
Abstract:: This study is an effort to characterize the magma sources, plumbing system, and eruptive behavior of Mount Hood, a low-explosivity recharge-dominated volcano in the Oregon Cascades. The three manuscripts in this dissertation make use of melt inclusion data, phenocryst compositions, and whole rock petrology and geochemistry to build a schematic...

Olivine and plagioclase-hosted melt inclusions and their application to determining parental arc magmas

Creator:: Kohut, Edward John
Abstract:: Three broadly interrelated problems of critical significance to the proper interpretation of melt inclusion (MI) data are addressed in this thesis. The first issue, the petrogenesis of anorthitic plagioclase phenocrysts in MORB lavas, has relevance due to the presence of numerous MI in many high-An feldspars. This problem was addressed...

Unstable jet flow along zonal ridge topography

Creator:: Witter, Donna Lynn
Abstract:: Motivated by observations of locally enhanced sea level variability near steep topographic slopes in regions of strong time-mean flows, effects of zonal ridge topography on zonal oceanic jet flow are investigated. Unstable wave properties and the dynamics of eddy-mean flow interaction are evaluated as a function of topographic geometry using...

The Nature of Sulfate Saturation in Oxidized Arc Magmas: Implications for Magmatic Sulfur Budgets

Creator:: Hutchinson, Michael C.
Abstract:: This dissertation is concerned with the behavior of sulfur in intermediate-silicic arc magmas associated with subduction at convergent margins. In particular it focusses on oxidized, sulfur-rich magmas, the conditions at which they might reach sulfate saturation, and implications of sulfate saturation. It is divided into an investigation of natural samples...

The Geology and Geochemistry of the Haquira East Porphyry Copper Deposit of Southern Peru : Insights on the Timing, Temperature and Lifespan of the Magmatic-hydrothermal Alteration and Mineralization

Creator:: Cernuschi Rodilosso, Federico
Abstract:: This dissertation is informally divided into three major sections. In the first section (Chapter 2) I use data from field mapping, isotopic geochronology, whole rock geochemistry and trace element concentrations in zircons to examine the petrology, geochemistry and ages of the Haquira East porphyry copper deposit of southern Peru. In...

Crustal architecture and magma dynamics in a large continental magmatic system : a case study of the Purico-Chascon Volcanic Complex, Northern Chile

Creator:: Burns, Dale H.
Abstract:: The ~1 Myr history of the Purico-Chascon volcanic complex (PCVC) records significant changes in the production and storage of magmas in the crust. At ~1 Ma activity at the PCVC initiated with the eruption of a large 80-100 km³ crystal-rich dacite ignimbrite with restricted whole rock ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr isotope ratios between...

Understanding large resurgent calderas and associated magma systems : the Pastos Grandes Caldera Complex, southwest Bolivia

Creator:: Kaiser, Jason Frederick, 1985-
Abstract:: The Pastos Grandes Caldera Complex (PGCC) in southwest Bolivia has produced two large-volume (≥800 km³ DRE) dacite ignimbrites from a nested caldera source over a period of 5.5 Myr. In addition to the large-volume ignimbrites, a small-volume ignimbrite shield and post-climactic lavas define this composite system. Based on detailed field...

The role of subduction fluids in generating compositionally diverse basalts in the Cascadia subduction zone

Creator:: Rowe, Michael C.
Abstract:: The primary goal of this study is to assess the impact of a subduction component added to the mantle wedge beneath the Oregon Cascades to the composition and fO2 of primitive Cascade basalts. Olivine-hosted melt inclusions from compositionally diverse basalts across the Cascade arc (~100 km) are utilized in an...
