geochemistry, research proceedings, and roles in earth sciences.
Chapter 2 Chemical Compositions and Chemical Evolution of Earth Systems (4 hours)
To teach the structure and chemical compositions of Earth Systems, partial melting of
mantle rocks and basalt generation, crustal anatexis and continental growth, mantle-crustal
interaction, surface processes and chemical evolution.
Chapter 3 Trace Elements Geochemistry (6 hours)
Classification and nature of trace elements; partitioning of trace elements in minerals,
melt and fluid, and factors that control the partition of elements between different
phases; element geochemical tracing and modelling; behaviour of trace elements in
subduction zone processes, mantle metasomatism, magma generation and water-rock

mechanism and thermodynamic and kinetic conditions that govern the isotopic fractionation,
use of stable isotopes in magmatism, water-rock interaction, ore-forming processes,
dehydration and melting of subducting slab, mantle wedge metasomatism, continental
weathering, and marine sedimentation.
Chapter 6 Non-Traditional Stable Isotopes and Applications (8 hours)
Geochemical behaviour of non-traditional stable isotope systems (Fe, Cu, Cr, Ca, Mg, Li)
and factors that control the isotopic fractionation; the application of non-traditional
stable isotopes in basalt generation, mantle-crustal interaction, subduction zone
processes, crustal anatexis, ore-forming mechanism, water-rock interaction, continental
weathering and carbon cycling.
