Despite the bulk silicate Earth only containing 250 parts per million of sulphur, sulphide minerals and liquids have a powerful impact on the behaviour and fractionation of a wide range of elements in the Earth’s crust and underlying mantle. According to the V. M. Goldschmidt classification, in the periodic table there are 18 chalcophile elements that have affinity for sulphur and form sulphides. Besides the chalcophile elements, a large number of siderophile elements are also found in nature in association with sulphides. This issue focuses on the broad topics of magmatic and volcanogenic sulphide deposits, the behaviour of sulphides during mantle melting and volcanism, and the mineralogy of sulphides and sedimentary sulphides and their role in the early development of the biosphere.

$20.00Phosphorus is a unique element: it is essential to the existence of all living forms, and as such controls biological productivity in many terrestrial and marine environments; but when in excess, it leads to uncontrollable biological growth and water-quality problems. This has become a common environmental issue, resulting from our careless use of phosphorus in agriculture, yet phosphate ore deposits, from which fertilizers are produced, are a finite natural resource.
