Short summary
Our research focuses on improving the way we predict mineral assemblage. Current methods, while accurate, are slowed by complex calculations. We developed a new approach that simplifies these calculations and speeds them up significantly using a technique called the Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (BFGS) algorithm. This breakthrough reduces computation time by more than five times, potentially unlocking new horizons in modeling reactive magmatic systems.
