Tytuł	Genetic insights into the social organization of Neanderthals
Czasopismo	Nature 610: 519-525
DOI	doi.org/10.1038/s41586-022-05283-y

Here we analyze the genetic structure of a unique Neanderthal taphocenosis in Chagyrskaya Cave (Altai Mountains). We found the group of 11 individuals to be a closely related family that roamed in the area around 59–51 thousand years ago. The mtDNA and Y-chromosome DNA reveal the low genetic diversity of the population and underrepresentation of males. Actualistic comparison with modern hominid populations allows perceiving those Neanderthals’ genetic structure in a similar way as that of modern mountain gorilla, an endangered subspecies. Distribution of the genetically-confirmed bones of the same individuals within the sedimentary sequence points toward strong post-depositional disturbances at the site.

Tytuł	High-K calc-alkaline to shoshonitic intrusions in SE Tibet: implications for metasomatized lithospheric mantle beneath an active continental margin
Czasopismo	Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, Volume 176, article 85, 7 Oct 2021
DOI	doi.org/10.1007/s00410-021-01843-z

High-K calc-alkaline to shoshonitic suites are widespread and generally volumetrically small but provide key information on magmatic mantle-crust interactions. Limited work has addressed the multi-stage formation of relatively high-volume high-K to shoshonitic rocks. A newly identified, Late-Cretaceous to Early-Cenozoic high-volume high-K to shoshonitic association (ca. 28,000 km³) is described, from the southeastern Himalayan–Tibetan orogen.

Tytuł	Inter-laboratory characterisation of apatite reference materials for chlorine isotope analysis
Czasopismo	Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, Volume 45, Issue 1, March 2021, p. 121-142
DOI	doi.org/10.1111/ggr.12366

Here we report on a set of six apatite reference materials (chlorapatites MGMH#133648, TUBAF#38 and fluorapatites MGMH#128441A, TUBAF#37, 40, 50) which we have characterised for their chlorine isotope ratios; these RMs span a range of Cl mass fractions within the apatite Ca₁₀(PO₄)₆(F,Cl,OH)₂ solid solution series. Numerous apatite specimens, obtained from mineralogical collections, were initially screened for ³⁷Cl/³⁵Cl homogeneity using SIMS followed by δ³⁷Cl characterisation by gas source mass spectrometry using both dual-inlet and continuous-flow modes.

Czasopismo	Sedimentology, Vol. 68, Issue 1, January 2021, p. 425-448
DOI	doi.org/10.1111/sed.12785

This case study from the renowned Demänová Cave System in the Carpathians of Slovakia demonstrates that the conventional methods of fluvial sedimentology, combined with an allostratigraphic mapping and speleothem U-series isotopic dating, can give unprecedented insights into the hydrological history of underground karst conduit. The deposits studied are a relic compound sidebar ranging from gravel to mud and encapsulating the conduit’s hydrological history from the middle Pleistocene to the present time.

Tytuł	Chocolate flint: new perspectives on its deposits, mining, use and distribution by prehistoric communities in Central Europe
Czasopismo	Antiquity, 11 August 2021
DOI	doi.org/10.15184/aqy.2021.48

The discovery of previously unknown chocolate flint outcrops in the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland (only the second known area after that in the Holy Cross Mountains) has undermined our seemingly solid knowledge of the prehistoric economy, which is based on the distribution pattern of this important raw material. The authors present new interdisciplinary research focused on the prehistoric mining of chocolate flint in the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland, the distribution of chocolate flint artefacts within the Upland and beyond, and methods to distinguish this material from the Holy Cross Mountains chocolate flint.

Czasopismo	Energies, Vol. 14, issue 20, 6464, 9 October 2021
DOI	doi.org/10.3390/en14206464

This article presents the results of laboratory tests regarding the influence of high temperatures on changes in the strength and structural parameters of rocks that are present in the immediate vicinity of a gasification channel. Sandstone and claystone samples were heated at 300 °C, 600 °C, 900 °C and 1200 °C. Additionally, the heated samples were placed in water for 24 h. The results of the laboratory tests were used in the numerical simulation using RS2 software. The main goal of modeling was to determine the extent of the rock destruction zone around the gasification channel for dry and wet rock masses.

Czasopismo	Solid Earth, Volume 12, 1899–1930, 2021
DOI	doi.org/10.5194/se-12-1899-2021

The Phanerozoic tectonothermal evolution of the SW slope of the East European Platform (EEP) in Poland is reconstructed by means of thermal maturity, low-temperature thermochronometry, and thermal modelling. We provide a set of new thermochronometric data and integrate stratigraphic and thermal maturity information to constrain the burial and thermal history of sediments. Apatite fission track (AFT) analysis and zircon (U−Th)/He (ZHe) thermochronology have been carried out on samples of sandstones, bentonites, diabase, and crystalline basement rocks collected from 17 boreholes located in central and NE Poland.

Tytuł	Using Th-U-Pb geochronology to extract crystallization ages of Paleozoic metamorphic monazite contaminated by initial Pb
Czasopismo	Chemical Geology, Vol. 582, 5 November 2021, 120450
DOI	doi.org/10.1016/j.chemgeo.2021.120450

Geochronology of Th-rich minerals is advantageous as it allows use of three isotopic systems (i.e., ²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U, ²⁰⁷Pb/²³⁵U, and ²⁰⁸Pb/²³²Th) for accurate data assessment. The ²⁰⁸Pb/²³²Th system is especially advantageous in cases where the dated mineral includes an initial Pb component, as ²⁰⁸Pb/²³²Th is the least sensitive to the effects of initial Pb amongst the three systems. This benefit is demonstrated with monazite from a white mica schist of the Tsäkkok Lens, Scandinavian Caledonides, where three distinct generations of Paleozoic monazite (Mnz single bond I, Mnz-II, Mnz-III) are recognized and dated using laser ablation inductively coupled mass spectrometry.

Czasopismo	Journal of Physical Chemistry C
DOI	doi.org/10.1021/acs.jpcc.0c09720

Clay minerals, along with organic matter, control methane (CH₄) gas adsorption properties of sediments and sedimentary rocks. These natural, high-pressure environments of sediments and sedimentary rocks are particularly important in view of hydrocarbon exploration and global warming. The present study investigates swelling of smectites in dry methane at high pressure (1–60 bar), using in situ high-pressure X-ray diffraction and Grand Canonical Ensemble Monte Carlo simulations.

Tytuł	Oxygen isotopic compositions of end-members in a multicomponent mixture: Ediacaran weathering material from the East European Craton
Czasopismo	Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, Volume 306, August 2021
DOI	doi.org/10.1016/j.gca.2021.04.013

The aim of the present study was to investigate the oxygen isotopic composition of the Ediacaran weathering material from the western margin of the East European Craton. This area presents a unique opportunity to investigate the Ediacaran strata with a minimum diagenetic overprint. Paleosol intervals, containing material formed during the most advanced weathering stages, rich in kaolinite and iron (hydr)oxides, and corresponding sedimentary rocks were investigated. Bulk material and separated clay fractions were subjected to reactions with hot dithionite-citrate-bicarbonate solution in order to remove free iron (hydr)oxides. The obtained material was characterized by X-ray diffraction, chemical analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, and the measurement of oxygen isotope composition.

Czasopismo	American Journal of Science
DOI	doi.org/10.2475/07.2021.03

Clay mineral-bearing mudstones are a prominent component of ancient fluvial-lacustrine deposits, 100s of meters thick, documented by the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) rover, in Gale crater, Mars. Most of the clay minerals documented by MSL are hypothesized to have formed in situ, at or close to the time of deposition ∼3.5 Ga ago, by aqueous alteration of basaltic detritus. Here we study the mechanisms, controls, and timescales of clay mineral authigenesis in a series of lakes with a wide range of water chemistries from the Western Volcanic District, Victoria, SE Australia, as an analog to the Gale crater mudstones.

Tytuł	Foraminiferal organic linings: Functional and phylogenetic challenges.
Czasopismo	Earth-Science Reviews
DOI	doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2021.103726

Foraminifera are commonly applied as essential tools for relative time control and reconstructions of paleo/environmental conditions. These single-celled organisms leave in the sedimentary rocks two types of fossil records represented by mineralized shells (tests) and their organic linings. Although both types require different preparation methodologies, they should be treated complementary as they represent the same specimens. Unfortunately, this is not the case, and the foraminiferal fossil record is highly biased towards mineral shells. The fossil archive of acid resistant organic linings is highly fragmentary and limited to accessory components within palynological preparations of marine sediments.

Czasopismo	Journal of Metamorphic Geology
DOI	doi.org/10.1111/jmg.12589

In the Variscides of central Europe, the tectonothermal history of a few units jointly assigned to the Teplá‐Barrandian/Bohemian microplate had already terminated in the Devonian. One of these is the Góry Sowie Massif (GSM; Sudetes, SW Poland), mainly consisting of variably migmatitic gneisses with subordinate granulite and peridotite inserts. The eo‐Variscan evolution of the GSM was completed in five tectonothermal stages; however, the timing and pressure–temperature (P–T) conditions of the individual stages remain unclear because isotopic ages overlap within error, and previous P–T estimates have been determined without reference to these ages.

Tytuł	Geochemical Variability of Surface Sediment in Post-Mining Lakes Located in the Muskau Arch (Poland) and Its Relation to Water Chemistry
Czasopismo	Water, Air, & Soil Pollution volume 232, Article number: 108 (2021)
DOI	doi.org/10.1007/s11270-021-05057-8

Water and sediment chemical compositions were investigated in 75 post-mining lakes in the eastern part of the Muskau Arch region (Western Poland, Central Europe). The lakes, originating from lignite and clay surfaces and underground mining activity, exhibited a wide gradient of physical and chemical water parameters. The most pronounced variability in water parameters was observed in pH values, conductivity, and oxygen concentration in the mixolimnion and monimolimnion. In addition, the lakes varied in terms of their trophic status, indicated by their dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and phosphorous concentrations. In general, lakes with higher pH values had higher trophic states, and some even exhibited hypertrophic conditions. The Monte Carlo test indicated that the water pH, phosphorus, DOC, and silicon concentrations could significantly explain the chemical characteristics of sediments.

Tytuł	Paleoclimatic reconstruction in the Tatra Mountains of the western Carpathians during MIS 9–7 inferred from a multiproxy speleothem record
Czasopismo	Quaternary Research, 99, 290-304
DOI	doi.org/110.1017/qua.2020.69

The SC-3 speleothem from Szczelina Chochołowska Cave, located in the Tatra Mountains, was studied in detail. U-series dating and age–depth modeling allowed us to constrain the period of speleothem growth to between approximately 330 and 200 ka, that is, during Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) 9–7. The complementary use of stable isotope analyses, petrographic studies, and trace element analyses allowed the identification of warm and wet climatic conditions that were favorable for speleothem growth during MIS 9e and MIS 9c. Unfavorable climatic periods included the cold glacial conditions of MIS 8 and the MIS 9/MIS 8 transition.

Tytuł	Ancestors of domestic cats in Neolithic Central Europe: Isotopic evidence of a synanthropic diet
Czasopismo	Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Jul 2020, 201918884
DOI	doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1918884117

Most of today’s domesticates began as farm animals, but cat domestication took a different path. Cats became commensal of humans somewhere in the Fertile Crescent, attracted to early farmers’ settlements by rodent pests. Cat remains from Poland dated to 4,200 to 2,300 y BCE are currently the earliest evidence for the migration of the Near Eastern wildcat to Central Europe. Tracking the possible synanthropic origin of that migration, we used stable isotopes to investigate the paleodiet. We found that the ecological balance was already changed due to the expansion of Neolithic farmlands. We conclude that among the Late Neolithic Near Eastern wildcats from Poland were free-living individuals, who preyed on rodent pests and shared ecological niches with native European wildcats.

Tytuł	Marine transgression(s) to evaporite basin: The case of middle Miocene (Badenian) gypsum in the Central Paratethys, SE Poland
Czasopismo	Journal of Palaeogeography 9, 16 (2020)
DOI	doi.org/10.1186/s42501-020-00062-0

The middle Miocene Badenian evaporite basin of the Carpathian Foredeep Basin was a saline lake, separated by a barrier from the sea and supplied with seawater seeping through the barrier or overflowing it occasionally in the form of short-lived marine transgressions. Such transgressions could leave behind marine microfossils in marly clay intercalations.

DOI	doi.org/10.1130/G46746.1

Ediacaran siderite-bearing sedimentary rocks from the western part of the East European craton exhibit features typical of redoximorphic paleosols, including pedogenic siderite (e.g., sphaerosiderite) with uniform and negative δ¹⁸O and highly variable δ¹³C values. The siderite precipitated in water-logged soils in a hot and humid climate, and represents a rare example of pedogenic siderite formed before the rise of vascular plants.

Czasopismo	The Holocene, Volume: 30 issue: 6, page(s): 834-846
DOI	doi.org/10.1177/0959683620902224

Five stalagmites from the Demänová Cave System (DCS, Western Carpathians, Slovakia), spanning the period from 13,000 to 500 a BP, were analyzed for their oxygen and carbon stable isotopic composition of the calcite. The isotopic data obtained from several stalagmites located in one cave system allow us to separate the changes of regional/global importance from the local changes. Oxygen isotope ratios point to dynamic changes in the environment at the onset of the Holocene.

Tytuł	Hirnantian icebergs in the subtropical shelf of Baltica: Evidence from sedimentology and detrital zircon provenance
Czasopismo	Geology (2019) 47 (3): 284–288.
DOI	doi.org/10.1130/G45777.1

The widespread glaciomarine record of the Hirnantian (end-Ordovician) glaciation is confined to peri-Gondwanan terranes in Variscan Europe and, hence, is of little use for assessing the equatorward range of icebergs that calved from the North Gondwana ice sheet into the Rheic Ocean. New sedimentological investigations aided by laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry detrital zircon dating of Hirnantian diamictites from the East European craton in Poland demonstrate that the iceberg pathways extended to subtropical Baltica.
