Bettina and others interested
>does anyone know if apatite-mineral (calcite) 18 O -fractionations in
metamorphic rocks are studied and /or where they are published?
>Any information is gratefully accepted!!

For a recent review and determination of oxygen isotope fractionations
involving apatites check out Zheng Y-F, 1996, Chem. Geol. V. 127 p. 177-187:
Oxygen isotope fractionations involving apatites: Application to
paleotemperature determination.
