Microstructures in titanomagnetites as guides to cooling rates of a Swedish intrusion

Abstract

SummaryIron-titanium oxides from Taberg in Sweden exhibit under the electron microscope several microstructural features not visible when studied by optical microscopy, including homogeneous nucleation of magnetitess from ulvöspinelss, and the spinodal decomposition of magnetitesss. Such microstructures have promise as indicators of cooling rates.
