Oxygen isotope compositions of whole rock and/or mineral separates (quartz and feldspar) have been determined for the granitic and related rocks from the Wolf River Batholith, Wisconsin. Hydrothermal alteration resulting in the decrease of ${\Delta}_{Q-F}$/ values was obaserved locally throughout the batholith. Feldspars of different colors (pink, gray and red) were separated whenever feasible and analyzed. Most red feldspars (An$_{10-30}$/) show the highest and constant ${\delta}^18O$/ values (9.3~10.0 permil) suggesting nearly complete isotope exchange with hydrothermal fluid. Based on ${\delta}^18O$/ values and the alteration temperatures (260~$350^{\circ}C$) estimated from fluid inclusion study, ${\delta}^18O$/ of fluid is calculated to be $5.0{\pm}1.4$ permil. Phanerozoic sedimentary formation water in Wisconsin is most likely the source of the fluid.

We report adventages of employing MgO as a differentiation index for the Namwon granitic complex. It is shown to be much more sensitive than the usual Harker index. The complex can be divided into two groups on the basis of $TiO_2$/MgO ratio. The low $TiO_2$/MgO group consists of hornblende biotite tonalite-granodiorite, porphyritic hornblende biotite granodiorite (PHBGd) and part of biotite granite (loBG). PHBGd shows its own distinct variation in the low group. This group is characterized in most cases by the presence of hornblende, even if it occurs as a trace amount. The high $TiO_2$/MgO group consists of part of biotite granite (hiBG) and two mica granite. The major element differences between rock types are also apparent in biotite chemistry. These chemical data indicate that at least two distinct origins of magma are rquired for the complex. Two kinds of biotite granite revealed in this study show distinct geographic distribution, suggesting that a new geologic map should be made.

Crystal boundaries in igneous rocks are genetically classified in order to predict the geometric patterns of the boundaries which may aid deciphering the textural code in igneous rocks. Crystal boundaries may be formed by two end-member processes;(1) mechanical and (2) chemical removal of interstitial melt. Mechanical removal of the melt will form displacement impingement boundaries, while chemical removal of the melt will form growth impingement boundaries. The positions of boundaries relative to the material points may be affected by secondary processes such as (1) migration and (2) dissolution. The geometric features of crystal boundaries, suggested in this study, may be useful when studying igneous textures and processes, although it may be impossible to determine the suggested features with the analytical techniques currently avilable.

High pressure X-ray diffraction study was carried out on a polycrystalline graphite to investigate the phase transition(s) at room temperature. Energy dispersive X-ray diffraction method was employed using a Mao-Bell type diamond anvil cell with an Wiggler synchrotron Radiation at the National Synchrotron Light Source. Sodium chloride power was used as the internal pressure sensor for the high pressure determinations as well as the pressure medium for quasihydrostatic pressure environment. Graphite transforms into a hexagonal didose not agree with the previously reported observations and this phase persists when pressure is released down to 0.1 MPa. This result dose not agree with the previously reported observations and this discrepancy would be due to the kinetics in phase transition as well as the uniaxially oriented pressure field in the diamond anvil cell.

U-Pb ages were determined from the Yongyudo biotite granites from western parts of Gyeonggi massif. The results show that the emplacement age of the Yongyudo biotite granite is ca. 227-230 Ma. Such age result that is somewhat older than previous reported ages, suggesting further investigations for the timing and evolution of the Jurassic granites of the western Gyeonggi massif.

카르스트는 자연수의 용식작용에 의하여 형성되는 지형이다. 용식은 카르스트 지형에 있어 가장 우세한 과정이 아니며, 또한 지배적인 과정도 아니지만, 그것은 다른 유형의 지형에서 형성되는 결과보다 용해질 암석에서 더 다양한 역할을 하기 때문이다. 용식의 가장 중요한 역할은 바위의 침투성을 증가시키면서 지하의 공간을 확대시키는 데 있다. 이는 지하수에 의해 지표면의 점진적인 용식적인 변화인 카렌, 석문, 용천, cockpit 및 mogote, sinkholes, hum 등의 카르스트 지형을 창출한다. 수문학의 대표적인 이론인 Darcy's Law가 용식지형에서는 전혀 적용되지 않는다는 검증 결과만 하더라도 카르스트가 얼마나 다양하고 복잡한 수문학적인 형성과정을 가지고 있는가를 알 수 있을 것이다. 특히 Darcy의 법칙은 비등방성과 비균질적인 투수층에는 적용되지 않는다. 왜냐하면 카르스트 지역에서는 1차삼투율(primary transmissivity)의 공극율에 따른 투과율이 적용되는 일반적인 암석에서의 결과보다 2차삼투율(secondly transmissivity인 단층선, 균열, 절리면 등에 의한 투과율이 훤씬 증대되기 때문이다. 따라서 카르스트수문학은 자연수의 용식작용에 의하여 형성되는 지형이지만 투수성, 지하수의 유속, 동공속의 소지류의 구배, 입수율과 배출율 등이 일반적인 수문학과 다른 결과를 나타내고 있다.

Around Harar in the northeastern part of the Ethiopia, the Precambrian granitic gneiss and gabbro bodies are developed with several pegmatites. The rock bodies in this area have been deformed by ductile and brittle deformations developing fold and ductile shear structure, and thrust and fault.

Some of the seven types of subgrain boundaries (Means and Ree, 1988) in octachloropropane samples show distinctive deformation patterns during their development. Type II subgrain boundaries migrate to accommodate the deformation difference between adjacent grains. The formation of Type III requires a rigid-body roation of grains to reduce misorientation of adjacent grains. Type I, IV, V and VI develop either in static or dynamic condition. Type VII form only in static environments after deformation. Ribbon grains can develop via Type III or Type IV process. The orientation pattern and density of subgrain boundaries are more or less stable through a post-deformation heating. Subgrain boundary orientations are symmetric with respect to the grain-shape foliation in pure shear. In simple shear, their maximum inclines toward the direction of shear.
