Chromian spinel geochemistry as a petrogenetic indicator in the chromitites and peridotites of the Bajgan Complex, Western Makran [PDF]
پترولوژیIntroductionEconomic chromite deposits are very common in ophiolite belts. These deposits usually occur in the uppermost horizons of the ophiolite mantle sequence or within the ultramafic cumulitic rocks at the base of the crustal sequence (González ...

Geologica Acta, 2009 Podiform chromitite bodies occur in highly serpentinized peridotites at Dobromirtsi Ultramafic Massif (Rhodope Mountains, southeastern Bulgaria). The ultramafic body is believed to represent a fragment of Palaeozoic ophiolite mantle.

Chromitites: An Enigmatic Mantle Rock Type
Journal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 2010 Various characteristics of podiform chromitites, an enigmatic mantle rock member, are reviewed in this article. Chromitites are composed of chromian spinel, with the general formula (Mg, Fe2+)(Cr, Al, Fe3+)2O4, and silicates (mainly olivine). The Fe3+ content is generally very low, being less than 0.1 to all trivalent cations, in mantle chromian ...

Chromespinel and Magnetite as Indicators for Recognition of Genesis and History of Serpentinites in Baft Ophiolite Mélange (Kerman Province in Iran) [PDF]
Journal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2013 Baft ophiolite mélange is a part of Naein-Baft ophiolite (southeast of Kerman province in Iran). Serpentinites from Baft ophiolite mélange contain different types of spinels such as chromite, chromespinel, ferritchromite and magnetite which can reveal ...
