Collaborative Research: Petrogenesis of the Laramie Anorthosite Complex

这一正在进行的项目旨在涵盖一项合作研究的最后阶段，该研究旨在通过绘制地图、实验岩石学以及选定样品的全岩和同位素地球化学来确定拉勒米斜长岩杂岩的起源和演化。这项研究应该会增加对斜长岩的岩石成因和块状铁钛氧化体的起源的理解，这些氧化体是美国的主要钛储量，也是潜在的重要铁源。

This ongoing project is designed to cover the final phase of a collaborative study to determine the origin and evolution of the Laramie Anorthosite Complex by mapping, experimental petrology, and whole-rock and isotopic geochemistry of selected samples. The study should increase understanding of anorthosite petrogenesis and the origin of massive Fe-Ti oxide bodies, which are the major reserves of titanium in the U.S. and potentially important sources of iron.
