Sodium partitioning between clinopyroxene and silicate melts
We present a quantitative model for Na partitioning between clinopyroxene and silicate melt, applicable in the range 0.1 MPa to 6.0 GPa, 1000–2000°C over a wide span of composition. Our model is derived from the Jadeite melting equilibrium, via the relationship ΔGƒ(P,T) = −RTlnKƒ = RTlnD*Na where ΔGƒ(P,T) is the Gibbs free energy of fusion of Jadeite ...

Kimberlite‐borne eclogite xenoliths having Precambrian oceanic crustal protoliths and entrained from ≥100 km depth can retain pristine geochemical features despite extended residence in the cratonic lithospheric mantle, making them valuable archives of ...

Frictional experiments of dolerite at intermediate slip rates with controlled temperature: Rate weakening or temperature weakening? [PDF]
A rotary shear apparatus has been newly set up in Chiba University which can control the temperature near a sliding surface, T_meas, up to 1000°C independently from slip rate, V.

Clasts of albite‐porphyroblastic quartzofeldspathic schist, derived from the Otago Schist basement, occur within the Port Chalmers Breccia, a diatreme at the centre of the Dunedin stratovolcano, New Zealand. Schists have undergone varying degrees of replacement reactions (at temperatures of 300° to >500°C) producing hornfelses, with Ca‐ and K‐enriched ...

The Lages diatremes: mineral composition and petrological implications
Chemical data of heavy minerals from Lages diatremes in southern Brazil have been studied with the aim of characterizing the sample source(s). Three groups of minerals are recognized: I) aluminian-chromian pyroxene, pyrope garnet and chromian spinel ...

Comparative compressibility of clinopyroxenes from mantle nodules
The comparative compressibilities of two clinopyroxenes from mantle nodules were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction with a Merrill-Bassett diamond anvil cell. The analysed crystals show different chemical compositions: PC 135, from a spinel lherzolitic nodule from Pico Cabugi, NE Brazil, has more R3+ (Fe3+ + VIA1 + Ti + Cr) in the Ml site ...

Key New Evidence for the Hainan Mantle Plume Head: Ongoing Formation of a Large Igneous Province?
Abstract The process‐based surface magmatic expression of mantle plumes is typically a large igneous province (LIP) induced by the mantle plume head, followed by subsequent age‐progressive volcanic tracks resulting from plate drifting above the plume tail.

Provenance Reassessment of Eocene Turbidites, New Caledonia: Inferences for Obduction Models
Provenance of pre‐obduction Eocene turbidites from New Caledonia is used to better constrain their geodynamic context and inform debate on subduction polarity.

Alkaline volcanic rocks from explosive monogenetic centers often carry an unusual cargo of crystals and rock fragments, which may provide valuable constraints on magma source, ascent and eruption.
