SUMMARY:Lithium\, rhyolites\, and the green revolution - Ben Ellis\, ETH Z
 urich

DESCRIPTION:Lithium (Li) plays an increasingly important role in society w
 ith ever greater reliance on rechargeable batteries for a variety of uses 
 from handheld electronic devices to electric vehicles.  Seemingly\, there 
 is a relationship between the locations of economic Li deposits and silici
 c magmatism\, however relatively little is known about the behaviour of Li
  in silicic magmatic systems.  This talk will initially discuss how the un
 usual geochemical properties of Li allow it to remain mobile into the post
 -eruptive realm and how this mobility obscures ‘true’ magmatic signatu
 res.  Subsequently\, the talk will focus on situations where Li does prese
 rve information about magmatic and eruptive processes and speculate about 
 what Li may be able to reveal about the magmatic-hydrothermal transition.
