“…Thorium enrichment and U depletion in the migmatitic crust in the Ivrea zone and at Mt Stafford result in similar calculated heat production in lower and higher grade rocks in both locations . Based on the modelling in this study and the measured concentrations of the heat-producing elements Bea & Montero, 1999;Williams et al, 2018), the heat production capacity of metasedimentary rocks is not expected to be transferred from the deep to shallow crust during intracrustal differentiation by anatexis.…”

“…Qualitative mapping and quantitative analyses of monazite chemistry were performed at Adelaide Microscopy, the University of Adelaide, using a Cameca SXFive electron microprobe following the method described in Williams et al (2018). Pb was not analysed for any samples herein to reduce individual spot analysis time.…”

“…Previous studies have successfully linked chemical zoning of Ce or Y in metamorphic monazite to mineral reactions involving garnet, apatite, xenotime and melt (Corrie & Kohn, 2008; Dumond et al, 2015; Kohn & Malloy, 2004; Pyle & Spear, 1999, 2003; Rubatto et al, 2006; Smith & Barreiro, 1990; Wing et al, 2003). However, to date, studies that have focused on Th behaviour in particular are few (Bea & Montero, 1999; Bingen et al, 1996; Skrzypek et al, 2018; Watt, 1995; Williams et al, 2018) and studies reporting Th zoning in monazite have produced seemingly contradictory results (e.g., decreasing Th from core to rim; Kohn & Malloy, 2004; Th‐in‐monazite is constant or increases with metamorphic grade; Skrzypek et al, 2018; Williams et al, 2018). Recent work by Williams et al (2018) and Skrzypek et al (2018), both on low pressure terranes, identified monazite chemical zones in prograde metamorphic sequences.…”
