A study by Chinese scientists conducted paleomagnetic analyses on basalts returned by the Chang'e-6 mission and revealed a significant reinforcement of the lunar dynamo approximately 2.8 billion ...
Flood basalts have fascinated geologists for centuries. As the largest volcanic events on Earth, they have been implicated in mass extinctions, such as the largest extinction event in Earth ...
The radioisotope ages of the Chang’e-6 basalts provide an essential calibration point for refining lunar crater-counting chronology, thus enhancing its accuracy, according to Prof. LI.
We used molecular techniques to analyze basalts of varying ages that were collected from the East Pacific Rise, 9° N, from the rift axis of the Juan de Fuca Ridge and from neighboring seamounts ...
Uplifting of Columbia River basalts has allowed University of Oregon researchers to better understand of how magma 14-16 million years ago shaped the region and why greenhouse gases released ...
Apollo mare basalts date back to the age of 3.8–3.3 Ga (Ga is one billion years) and were collected from a region that is highly rich in potassium, rare earth elements, and phosphorous known as ...

Abstract Cenozoic intraplate basalts in eastern China show variations of Pb, Sr, and Nd isotope ratios that essentially correspond to major lithospheric domains with distinct tectonic histories.
A recent study by Chinese scientists conducted paleomagnetic analyses on basalts returned by the Chang’e-6 mission and revealed a significant reinforcement of the lunar dynamo approximately 2.8 ...
