Calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions with fractionation and unknown nuclear effects (FUN CAIs): I. Mineralogy, petrology, and oxygen isotopic compositions2014 •

Trace elements incorporation of certain trace elements like strontium (Sr) and magnesium (Mg) among others and their isotope composition in different CaCO3 polymorphs (e.g. calcite and aragonite) as archives provide valuable for proxy information, that can be used as important tools for reconstructing the paleo- environmental conditions of the oceans throughout time. However, data on Sr incorporation into inorganic precipitated CaCO3 (calcite and aragonite), Mg incorporation into aragonite and Sr isotopic fractionation during minerals formation are still very rare. In addition, literature values available concerning Ca isotopic fractionation between calcite and aqueous solution are discrepant to a certain extent, while on the other hand the data available concerning Ca isotopic fractionation between inorganic precipitated aragonite and aqueous solution are also scarce. In order to overcome this lag of information in this study calcite and aragonite were precipitated at three differe...

Origin of Ca in South Indian calcretes developed on metamorphic rocks2006 •
Calcrete profiles developed on Precambrian silicate rocks in south peninsular India are studied and compared in terms of mineralogical, chemical and isotopic composition. The aim of this study is to determine the origin of calcium and the processes governing the development of a minor economic deposit in different geomorphic settings. The investigation integrates observations from an outcrop to a microfabric scale and reveals that the origin of calcium is local and linked with the weathering of the minerals of the surrounding rocks. The CaCO3 precipitation occurs after vertical and lateral translocation in the slope system.

Calcium isotopic evidence for the mantle sources of carbonatitesThe origin of carbonatites—igneous rocks with more than 50% of carbonate minerals—and whether they originate from a primary mantle source or from recycling of surface materials are still debated. Calcium isotopes have the potential to resolve the origin of carbonatites, since marine carbonates are enriched in the lighter isotopes of Ca compared to the mantle. Here, we report the Ca isotopic compositions for 74 carbonatites and associated silicate rocks from continental and oceanic settings, spanning from 3 billion years ago to the present day, together with O and C isotopic ratios for 37 samples. Calcium-, Mg-, and Fe-rich carbonatites have isotopically lighter Ca than mantle-derived rocks such as basalts and fall within the range of isotopically light Ca from ancient marine carbonates. This signature reflects the composition of the source, which is isotopically light and is consistent with recycling of surface carbonate materials into the mantle.

Christian-Muslim Relations A Bibliographical History Volume 21. South-western Europe (1800-1914) (Brill, 2024)
Memories of al-Andalus in 19th century SpainReconquista and Arab/Muslim Spain’ articulate the typically essentialist narrative of Spanish nationalism about medieval Iberia. While largely contradictory, they each arose out of the same political and ideological context and ran parallel through the 19th and most of the 20th centuries. In both paradigms, to which Arabists and historians alike assented, al-Andalus represented either a part of the eternal Spanish nation or its fiercest enemy, the anti-Spain whose destruction paved the way for building the nation.
