Petrogenesis and experimental petrology of granitic rocks / Петрогенезис и экспериментальная петрология гранитов

Granite petrology has achieved significant progress since Tuttle and Bowen (1958) wrote the monograph on the Origin of granite in the light of experimental studies in the system NaAISi308-KAISi308-SiOrH20. Since then, the components CaAI2Si20 s, FeO, MgO, and excess alumina have been added to the pure system Ab-Or-Qz-H20 in order to include plagioclase and common mafic minerals in the investigations. In addition to synthetic systems, natural rocks have been used as starting materials, and other fluid components have been added to or substituted for water.
There are many new data concerning properties of melts and magmas, dehydration melting of synthetic and natural  ocks, and phase relationships at H20-undersaturated conditions. We found it useful and necessary to summarize the available information in this volume, and an effort has been made to present up-to-date data on various aspects of granite petrology. <...>
