A «necklace» of large clusters of strategic raw materials over a stagnant oceanic slab in East Asia by Natalia Boriskina

“…Decompression and advection, which are particularly active near the natural boundaries of the slab, act as triggers for the intense interaction of under and over subduction asthenospheric fluids with adjacent sections of the mantle and for the directed upwelling of powerful flows of matter and energy into the lithosphere. These flows determine the locations of intermediate and peripheral magma chambers: Primary chambers in the lower lithosphere among the metasomatized mantle and lower crust and associated chambers in the middle and upper cratonized parts of the lithosphere. …”

Accelerated non-linear destruction of the earth's crust by E. V. Artyushkov

“…The upper part of the Earth—the lithospheric layer, ∼100 km thick, is rigid. Segments of this spherical shell–lithospheric plates are drifting over a ductile asthenosphere. …”

Metamorphism and linked deformation in understanding tectonic processes at varied scales by Lardeaux, Jean-Marc

“…On the basis of some world’s type iconic examples I discuss how metamorphism is likely to portray the thermo-mechanical evolution of lithosphere active zones, thus large-scale tectonic processes. …”
