This award will enable Dr. R. Gordon Gastil of San Diego State                  University to collaborate with Dr. Masaaki Shimizu of the                       University of Tokyo and Dr. Shunso Ishihara of the Geological                   Survey of Japan.  Dr. Gastil will visit sites in Japan where                    exposed granitic rocks have been subjected to detailed mapping and              geochemical analysis.  These rock formations will be compared with              those of the California Peninsula as to the degree and significance             of asymmetry and internal structure, and the meaning of the                     magnetite/ilmenite boundary.                                                                                                                                    Comparative analyses of granitic rock structures from different                 geographic locations will further the interpretation of magma                   development in subducting tectonic environments, and thus help to               unravel the origin and evolution of the major types of granitic                 rock.  Dr. Gastil has extensive experience in mapping the large                 zoned plutons of the California Peninsula.  Dr. Ishihara is                     considered the world authority on the magnetite/ilmenite                        distinction in granitic terranes, and Dr. Shimizu has recently                  published what is probably the most detailed study of this                      distinction within a single pluton.  Thus, the research will                    benefit significantly from the complementary experience of the                  researchers.
