The main focus of this thesis is to understand the myriad ways in which crust punk as an expressive cultural form creates meaning, forms the basis for social formation (or music scene), and informs the ways in which its participants both interact with and understand the world around them. Fieldwork for this research was conducted during the summer of 2012 in Austin, Texas. Primary methodology included participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and online ethnography. Additional research data was collected over the last five years through my own personal involvement with the crust punk music scene. The first section examines the ways in which crust punk as a genre both continues to evolve by avoiding and disavowing genre definitions and boundaries. The second section addresses my particular experiences with the Austin, Texas crust punk scene. I separate and examine the differences within the scene among and between differing levels of participation in various scene practices. These practices include the everyday practices necessary to maintain the music scene, as well as “anarchist” practices such as squatting, train hopping, transiency, and refusal to work. In the final section, I argue that in the crust punk scene dystopian performatives enable an apocalyptic and dystopic view of the world, building upon Jill Dolan’s theory of utopian performatives. I also outline my theory on how dystopian performatives and apocalyptic rhetoric work together to inflect crust punk structures of feelings and social imaginaries.

Exposed on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, the Jurassic Bonanza arc is believed to represent the southerly continuation of the Talkeetna arc. Small bodies of mafic and ultramafic cumulates within deeper plutonic levels of the arc constrain the fractionation pathways leading from high-MgO basalt to andesite-dacite compositions. The removal of amphibole from the most primitive non-cumulate compositions controls the compositions of mafic plutons and volcanics until the onset of plagioclase crystallization. This removal is accomplished by the intercumulus crystallization of large amphibole oikocrysts in primitive olivine hornblendite cumulates. Experimental hornblende compositions that crystallize from high-MgO basalts similar to primitive basalts from the Bonanza arc show a good correlation between octahedral Al in hornblende and pressure, and provide a means of estimating crystallization pressures during differentiation of primitive arc basalt. Application of an empirical barometer derived from experimental amphibole data (P = Al(6)/0.056 – 0.143; r2 = 0.923) to natural hornblendes from this study suggests that crystallization of primitive basalts took place at 470-880 MPa. Two-pyroxene thermometry gives a result of 1058 +/- 91 ºC for the only olivine hornblendite sample with both pyroxenes. Lever rule calculations require the removal of 30-45 % hornblende from the most primitive basalt compositions to generate basaltic andesite, and a further 48% crystallization of hornblende gabbro to generate dacitic compositions. Hornblende removal is more efficient at generating intermediate compositions than anhydrous gabbroic fractionating assemblages, which require up to 70% crystallization to reach basaltic andesite from similar starting compositions. There are no magmatic analogues to bulk continental crust in the Bonanza arc; no amount of delamination of ultramafic cumulates will push the bulk arc composition to high-Mg# andesite. Garnet removal appears to be a key factor in producing bulk continental crust.

This dissertation combines mineralogical data and petrographic and field observations with geochemical analysis (major, trace and isotope) to provide new insights into the hydrology and geochemistry of mid-ocean ridge hydrothermal systems. Two study areas were chosen to study two different aspects of hydrothermal circulation: high-temperature on-axis hydrothermal systems were studied using samples from the Hess Deep Rift (Cocos Plate, Equatorial Pacific) and low-temperature off-axis hydrothermal systems were studied at the Troodos Ophiolite in Cyprus. Significant findings include the documentation of a previously unknown warm fluid that pervades the lavas leaching Li from newly formed crust. This finding corroborates a model of broad hydrothermal discharge in the sheeted dikes. In the off-axis low-temperature regime, lateral flow of warm fluid is documented in the lavas, advecting heat from the oceanic lithosphere, with minor geochemical changes to the lavas. The sedimentary cover was found to influence alteration in two ways. The longer an area remains unsedimented allowing the free ingress and egress of seawater, the deeper the enrichment of alkali metals is observed. The maximum enrichment in alkali metals (K, Rb, Cs) however, is similar in both locations. The sedimentary cover can also modify the seawater before it becomes impermeable to fluid flow; early metaliferrous oxide sediments react with seawater, creating a fluid that mobilizes and fractionates the REEs and Y. The fractionation results in negative Ce anomalies, positive Eu anomalies, and negative Y anomalies. Basalts altered under these conditions also lack the ubiquitous Fe-oxides and Fe-oxyhydroxides that are commonly associated with alkali metal uptake. In situ trace element analysis of alteration minerals formed at low-temperature confirmed that secondary phyllosilicates are strongly enriched in alkali metals (K, Rb, Cs and Li), Ba is found in adularia and zeolites, Sr is hosted in carbonates, and no phases were found to be enriched in U. The concentrations of K2O, Rb, Cs (as well as B) are highest in celadonites, whereas Li concentrations are highest in smectites (saponite, Al-saponite, beidellite) and smectite-chlorite mixtures, and much higher than previously reported. Alkalis are also taken up into palagonite, with Li having the highest concentrations, over 1000 ppm in one analysis. Crystal chemical factors were found to be the dominant control on trace element uptake, and for the phyllosilicates no correlation was found between the temperature, age of the crust, texture of the phyllosilicates. In phyllosilicates the K, Rb and Cs are adsorbed as exchange cations, with enrichment (Cs > Rb > K) increasing with decreasing hydration energy, whereas the uptake of Li and B does not correlate with the hydration energy. Lithium concentrations also do not correlate with the Mg content, suggesting substitution of Li for Mg is not the only mechanism of Li uptake into phyllosilicates as has been suggested. / Graduate

It is suggested that the Mafic Units and HS are allochthonous and were emplaced onto the WGR during an early stage of the Caledonian Orogeny. All units, including the Basement Gneisses, have suffered retrogression during a late extensional phase which continued into at least the Middle Devonian.

The Lofoten-Vesterålen province of North Norway consists almost exclusively of Precambrian granulite-facies rocks. The oldest rocks in the province are monzonitic and dioritic migmatitic gneisses, the protoliths of which were formed at 2.7 Ga. The migmatites are overlain by a series of supracrustal gneisses, from 2.1 Ga, largely volcanogenic in origin, but with interbedded marbles and banded ironstones. The first occurrence of marble in western Lofoten is reported. Deposition in a subsiding back-arc basin or in an Andean- type environment on a thin continental margin is inferred. Both gneiss sequences were intruded by basic rocks at 1.8 Ga. The basic rocks could not have been formed simply by extraction from the mantle at 1.8 Ga. The required contribution from 2.7 Ga migmatites could be as much as 37%, but less if contamination took place via anatectic melts. The first report of eclogitic rocks from the Lofoten-Vesterålen province is made in this study; their formation is associated with shear deformation Both gneiss sequences and the basic rocks were intruded by mangeritic rocks at 1.8 - 1.7 Ga. Their chemical compositions can be explained by fractional crystallization from magmas formed from 2.7 Ga and 2.1 Ga gneisses and 1.8 Ga mantle-derived magmas. Parameters derived from Rb-Sr, Sm-Nd and U-Pb systems to express the relative proportions of crust and mantle contributions to the mangerites mutually correlate, supporting the crust-mantle source model for the mangerites. Mixing calculations suggest that the late Archaean contributes in excess of 50% by mass for almost all mangerites. Anatectic veins present, especially in the Moskenesøy supracrustal gneisses, are inferred to represent partial melts which coalesced to form the mangerites at higher structural levels. Anatexis was caused by basaltic underplating associated with limited crustal extension. Later rock-forming events were the emplacement of dolerite dykes; the 1.65 Ga Lødingen Granite; the Leknes Group metasediments and the Caledonian granite pegmatites.

North Sister, a stratovolcano in the Oregon High Cascades, provides a window into magma generation processes in the deep crust. Eruption of a remarkably limited basaltic andesite composition over the lifespan of this volcano may reflect last equilibration of mantle derived magma within a deep crustal hot zone. High pressure, water-undersaturated phase equilibrium experiments show that an anhydrous, augite-rich gabbro at ∼12 kbar (40 km depth) and ∼ 1175°C is the most probable lithology with which North Sister basaltic andesite with ∼3.5 wt% H 2 O last equilibrated within the deep crust before erupting. While magma often erupts at the planets surface as at North Sister, a greater volume never reaches the surface and solidifies within the upper crust. Exsolution of magmatic fluids is an inevitable consequence of crystallization of hydrous crustal magmas. The fate of these fluids is the focus of the remainder of this dissertation. Modeling of CO 2 and H 2 O variations during crystallization of granitic magma reveals that exsolution of a large mass of fluid occurs only after CO 2 is largely degassed, creating ideal conditions for hydrofracturing and formation of porphyry copper deposits. CO 2 and H 2 O solubility relations suggest that H 2 O-rich magma was required to produce the porphyry-Cu-Mo deposit at Butte, Montana, which may explain its distinctively deep generation. Electron microprobe analyses of Ti in quartz and Zr in rutile in samples from Butte yield porphyry magma temperatures (630-770°C) that overlap substantially with hydrothermal vein temperatures (<430-750°C). Veins display large temperature ranges (50-250°C) that signify variable degrees of cooling of hot magmatic fluids upon contact with cooler wall rock during vein growth. Modeling of Ti diffusion in quartz suggests that individual dikes and veins likely cooled over short timescales (10s-1000s years), indicating that porphyry systems may evolve by episodic magmatic fluid injections with discrete thermal spikes. Modeling of Ti diffusion in quartz combined with electron backscatter diffraction maps show that small hydrothermal quartz veins likely formed by epitaxial growth.
