Uranium, thorium and REE partitioning into sulfide liquids: implications for reduced S-rich bodies

<p>We have performed experiments at 1.5 GPa over the temperature range 1400-2100°C to determine the partitioning of lithophile elements (U, Th, Eu, Sm, Nd, Zr, La, Ce, Yb) between sulfide liquid, low-S metals and silicate melt. The data demonstrate pronounced increases in partitioning of all t...
