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.

Glasses And Melts: Linking Geochemistry And Materials Science, October 2006, Vol. 2, No. 5
$20.00Geological interest in studying melts stems from early recognition that melts play a fundamental role in determining the physical and chemical behaviour of magmas and magmatic processes. However, due to the inherent difficulties associated with working at high temperatures, much of the geological research over the last 30 years has used quenched melts or glasses as proxies for melts themselves.
