The Early Stages of Granite Evolution: Extraction and Transport Through Ductile Crust

这项研究的目的是了解大陆是如何通过几个阶段的岩石融化而形成的。岩石在大陆深处融化，形成上升的花岗岩岩浆，将重要的金属，如金、铜和锡，以及产生热量的元素，如铀、钍和钾运送到上层地壳。这项研究计划旨在了解花岗岩如何融化形成和上升，运输这些重要元素，这些元素不仅控制着我们的财富，还控制着我们居住的大陆的稳定。

This research is aimed at understanding how the continents develop through several stages of rock melting. Rock melts deep in the continents to form granite magmas which rise, transporting to the upper crust important metals, such as gold, copper and tin, and heat producing elements such as uranium, thorium and potassium. This research proposal seeks to understand how granite melts form and rise transporting these all important elements, which control not only our wealth but also the stability of the continents we live in.
