Here, we identify a widely distributed (> 3150 km2) member of the Upper Rhyolite Tuff in Hungary, called the Dobi Ignimbrite, with a precise sanidine/plagioclase 40Ar/39Ar age of 13.064 ± 0.065 Ma (~ Badenian/Sarmatian boundary in Central Paratethys chronology). It has distinctive glass geochemistry with wide compositional variations, which conforms with large-scale silicic explosive eruptions. In line with this, the calculated minimum volume (~ 200 km3) of the Dobi Ignimbrite is consistent with a high-end VEI 7 eruption, with possible ultradistal transport distance of over 300 km. Most of the pyroclastic succession, which erupted in two phases, was emplaced on land, as it contains leaves and tree trunks in the basal layer that we correlate with the Badenian/Sarmatian ‘volcanic floras’ of northern Hungary. At the same time, the ignimbrite has a strongly phreatomagmatic character, and, together with the presence of free-floating foraminifera, this suggest that the source vent was located in coastal waters of the Central Paratethys. These findings indicate either a late Badenian marine incursion prior to the eruption, or the shift of the eruption center toward the sea.}, year = {2025}, eissn = {2045-2322}, orcid-numbers = {Karátson, Dávid/0000-0003-0386-1239; Józsa, Sándor/0000-0001-8219-0044; Márton Péterné Szalay, Emőke/0000-0002-2135-8867; Tóth, Emőke/0000-0002-1733-7828; Vörös, Fanni/0000-0002-0795-2739; Biró, Tamás/0000-0001-5198-7210; Kiss, János/0000-0001-8589-1364; Hencz, Mátyás/0000-0001-9716-5714} } @CONFERENCE{MTMT:36364597, title = {Paleogeographic control on eruption styles in a Miocene maar-diatreme: rock componentry analysis and detailed field work (Bakony- Balaton Highland Volcanic Field, Hungary)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36364597}, author = {Hencz, Mátyás and Németh, Károly and Spránitz, Tamás and Biró, Tamás and Karátson, Dávid and Berkesi, Márta}, booktitle = {Abstract Book - Basalt 2025}, unique-id = {36364597}, year = {2025}, pages = {18-20}, orcid-numbers = {Hencz, Mátyás/0000-0001-9716-5714; Spránitz, Tamás/0000-0002-5086-3133; Biró, Tamás/0000-0001-5198-7210; Karátson, Dávid/0000-0003-0386-1239; Berkesi, Márta/0000-0003-4380-057X} } @article{MTMT:36467911, title = {Syn- and post-depositional thermal history of ignimbrites: insights from the structural hydroxyl defect content of quartz crystals from the Tecoloquillo ignimbrite, Acoculco Caldera Complex, Mexico}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36467911}, author = {Pérez-Orozco, Juan Daniel and Sosa-Ceballos, Giovanni and Biró, Tamás and Hencz, Mátyás and Macías, José Luis and Kovács, István János}, doi = {10.1007/s00410-025-02279-5}, journal-iso = {CONTRIB MINERAL PETR}, journal = {CONTRIBUTIONS TO MINERALOGY AND PETROLOGY}, volume = {180}, unique-id = {36467911}, issn = {0010-7999}, abstract = {In this contribution, the structural hydroxyl-defect (OH) content of quartz crystals from the 0.8 ± 0.1 Ma Tecoloquillo Ignimbrite (TI) from the Acoculco Caldera Complex (Puebla, Mexico) was analyzed to examine syn- and post-depositional thermal history of ignimbrites. Pumice-hosted quartz crystals were examined from 5 zones of the TI representing various heights above the basal contact of the ignimbrite. To separate quartz crystal populations, unpolarized micro-FTIR on unoriented crystal fragments was performed to determine the OH-speciation as well as the structural hydroxyl-defect content. Additionally, Raman spectroscopy was used to identify the mineral inclusions of quartz crystals. Two populations of quartz were identified based on the structural hydroxyl-defect concentrations and mineral inclusions: a “hydrous” group with boron-related OH-content (BOH) with evidence of hydrothermal origin (containing abundant rutile needles) and another “anhydrous” group with the absence of any structural hydroxyl-defect content (as well as lack of BOH). The “hydrous” group showed a diffusion profile of BOH with a maximum gradient of 2.4 ± 0.65 wt ppm between the core and the rim of the crystals. The pre-eruptive temperatures of the TI were calculated using the composition of Fe-Ti oxides found in the pumice fragments. Results indicate a 720 ± 20 °C and 790 ± 20 °C temperature for the non-welded main mass (middle level) and 840 ± 30 °C for the welded lower ~ 25 m thick basal level. Based on the pre-eruptive temperatures, the syn- and post-depositional cooling history of the TI was estimated based on thermal modelling. According to the cooling model, the cooling time can reach up to 50 years in the middle level (slow cooling rate: ~3 − 8 °C/s or ~ 1 °C/yr). In spite of such high and long-lasting temperature, the thermal stability of BOH defects (under 600 °C) compared to the common AlOH defects in quartz crystals implies that the ignimbrite emplacement temperature was high enough to cause the total AlOH content to be lost from the quartz crystals, but not as high as the OH-content associated with boron to be diffusively lost. Thus, the structural hydroxyl-defect content of quartz represents a function of the thermal history of the deposit they are embedded in and that of the structural hydroxyl-defect speciation. This is the first study showing the significantly higher thermal stability of BOH structural hydroxyl-defects over AlOH structural hydroxyl-defects within quartz crystals originated from silicic ignimbrites.}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1432-0967}, orcid-numbers = {Pérez-Orozco, Juan Daniel/0009-0005-2972-0241; Biró, Tamás/0000-0001-5198-7210; Hencz, Mátyás/0000-0001-9716-5714} } @article{MTMT:34412174, title = {Lithostratigraphy of the ignimbrite-dominated Miocene Bükk Foreland Volcanic Area (Central Europe)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34412174}, author = {Hencz, Mátyás and Biró, Tamás and Németh, Károly and Szakács, Alexandru and Portnyagin, Maxim and Cseri, Zoltán and Pécskay, Zoltán and Szabó, Csaba and Müller, Samuel and Karátson, Dávid}, doi = {10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2023.107960}, journal-iso = {J VOLCANOL GEOTH RES}, journal = {JOURNAL OF VOLCANOLOGY AND GEOTHERMAL RESEARCH}, volume = {445}, unique-id = {34412174}, issn = {0377-0273}, abstract = {This study documents the volcanic evolution of the Miocene silicic Bükk Foreland Volcanic Area (BFVA), Northern Hungary (Central Europe) at an event-scale. The BFVA is a deeply eroded and dissected volcanic field dominated by multiple, several 10-m thick, valley-filling silicic ignimbrite units, which are chemically and texturally very similar to each other. Hence, establishing lateral correlation is a real challenge due to the sporadic and small-scale outcrops and lack of stratotypes. Detailed field observations allowed us to identify eleven lithological members including fourteen eruption events and establish a nearly complete lithostratigraphic correlation between fifteen outcrops across the BFVA. Primary pyroclastic material of each member was sampled, and volcanic glass was analyzed for major and trace element composition. The geochemical results confirm the field-based classification of the members and enable the correlation of distinct outcrops. The major and trace element composition of the glassy pyroclasts of each member of the BFVA served as basis to create a field-wide chemical reference database for regional correlational studies. Here, a new lithostratigraphic classification scheme consisting of one formation and eleven members is presented, which reflects the challenges unraveling the stratigraphy of ancient volcanic terrains. The field-based event-scale lithostratigraphy of the BFVA suggests a wet, partly sea-covered depositional environment in the close vicinity of the eruption centers providing favorable conditions to ‘fuel’ silicic explosive phreatomagmatism. On the contrary, paleosol horizons formed after almost each major eruption event or sequence suggests an overall near-coast terrestrial environment for the BFVA, where the emplacement of the pyroclastic material occurred.}, keywords = {STRATIGRAPHY; phreatomagmatism; ignimbrite; Correlation; lithostratigraphy; Glass geochemistry; Volcanic geology; Reworked pyroclasts}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1872-6097}, orcid-numbers = {Hencz, Mátyás/0000-0001-9716-5714; Biró, Tamás/0000-0001-5198-7210; Szabó, Csaba/0000-0002-1580-6344; Karátson, Dávid/0000-0003-0386-1239} } @article{MTMT:35087225, title = {Középső miocén szárazföldi gerinces faunadokumentáció Észak-Magyarországról és a Visegrádi-hegységből}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/35087225}, author = {Hír, J and Biró, Tamás and Karátson, Dávid}, doi = {10.23928/foldt.kozl.2024.154.1.27}, journal-iso = {FÖLDTANI KÖZLÖNY}, journal = {FÖLDTANI KÖZLÖNY}, volume = {154}, unique-id = {35087225}, issn = {0015-542X}, abstract = {Nineteen Middle Miocene (Badenian and Sarmatian) microvertebrate faunas were collected by the first author in quantities of several tons of samples in the Northern Hungary region and from the Visegrád Mountains in Transdanubia over the last two decades.
