Drivers of critical metal enrichment in peralkaline magmas recorded by clinopyroxene zoning

Abstract Highly sodic peralkaline magmas can reach hyper-enrichment in critical metals including rare earth elements (REE). We explore clinopyroxene zoning to track the evolution of peralkaline magmas and the mechanisms that trigger critical metal mineralisation, focusing on the Mesozoic Benolong Vo...
