Rapakivi Granites and Related Rocks tells the story of Rapakivi granites, a group of granitic rocks characterized by specific texture (presence of plagioclase-mantled ovoidal to subhedral alkali feldspar megacrysts, two generations of quartz and feldspars) and A-type geochemical composition. The book includes research and abundant geochemical and isotopic data combined with an understanding of geotectonic processes that allow more detailed tectonic and petrological modeling of rapakivi granite magmatism and associated ore mineralization. Well-known examples are found as anorogenic or...
