TTGs and adakites: are they both slab melts?

Lithos, 2005
Abstract Although both high-Al TTG (tonalite–trondhjemite–granodiorite) and adakite show strongly fractionated REE and incompatible element patterns, TTGs have lower Sr, Mg, Ni, Cr, and Nb/Ta than most adakites. These compositional differences cannot be easily related by shallow fractional crystallization. While adakites are probably slab melts, TTGs

Adakites from Solander Island, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, 1997
Abstract The subduction related, island arc Pleistocene volcano of Solander Island in Foveaux Strait is composed of adakite, a new rock type first described from Adak Island in the Aleutian arc. Adakites are formed by the partial fusion of young oceanic crust under eclogitic facies conditions.

Interaction of adakitic melt-peridotite: Implications for the high-Mg# signature of Mesozoic adakitic rocks in the eastern North China Craton

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2008
Abstract Abundant dunite and harzbugite xenoliths are preserved in Early Cretaceous high-Mg# [63–67, where Mg# = molar 100 × Mg/(Mg + Fetot)] diorite intrusions from western Shandong in the North China Craton (NCC). Dunite and some harzburgite xenoliths typically preserve areas of orthopyroxenite (sometimes accompanied by phlogopite) either as veins ...

Crustal thickness and adakite occurrence in the Philippines: Is there a relationship?

Island Arc, 2008
AbstractAdakites are increasingly being recognized worldwide in a variety of tectonic settings. Models on the formation of this geochemically distinct class of volcanic rocks have evolved from partial melting of subducted young, hot oceanic slabs to magmatism resulting from oblique subduction, low‐angle or flat subduction, or even slab‐tearing.

Adakitic magmas: modern analogues of Archaean granitoids

Lithos, 1999
Both geochemical and experimental petrological research indicate that Archaean continental crust was generated by partial melting of an Archaean tholeiite transformed into a garnet-bearing amphibolite or eclogite. The geodynamic context of tholeiite melting is the subject of controversy.

Geochemistry of adakitic quartz diorite in the Yamizo Mountains, central Japan: Implications for Early Cretaceous adakitic magmatism in the inner zone of southwest Japan

Island Arc, 2005
Abstract  Small‐volume plutons of Early to Late Cretaceous ages are widely distributed in the Yamizo Mountains, central Japan. These plutons consist predominantly of granitoids, classified into hornblende gabbro, quartz diorite, hornblende–biotite granodiorite and coarse‐grained biotite granite.

Adakites along oceanic transforms?

2003
Quaternary dacites and trachytes from the Aird Hills and Lusancay Islands in Papua New Guinea show some of the clearest slab melt geochemical signatures (Mg# 73-93, Sr = 1520-2650 ppm, Sr/Y = 140-445, La/Yb = 135-238), yet there is no slab currently subducting beneath Papua New Guinea.

Initiation of adakite occurrence in Cretaceous arc, Northeast Asia

Geosciences Journal, 2018
Recent studies show that the Cretaceous intracontinental and arc tectonomagmatism in Northeast Asia resulted from the intracontinental mantle plume under the North China Craton and its channel-like flow that was dragged into the underneath of the ancient arc, respectively.

Early paleozoic adakites in the eastern sayan: Geochemistry and sources

Geochemistry International, 2010
The paper reports data on the geochemistry of Early Paleozoic granitoids in the Munku-Sardyk Range, Eastern Sayan. It has been established that the rocks composing this pluton have compositional characteristics corresponding to the genetically unified association of NEB (Nb-enriched basites) and adakites.
