Earthquakes and the Metamorphic Sole of the Tinos Ophiolite, Cyclades, Greece
Abstract We analyze deformation fabrics, compositions of melts, metamorphic temperatures, and paleopiezometric data beneath the Tsiknias Thrust, Tinos, Greece, which formed part of the plate boundary that, in Late‐Cretaceous time, absorbed convergence between Africa and Europe associated with final closure of the Vardar Ocean.

Patterns and Mechanisms of Melt Distribution in Partially Molten Harzburgite under Hydrostatic Pressure [PDF]
Geophysical and geochemical properties of partially molten regions of the Earth’s upper mantle are strongly affected by the distribution of melt. I investigated the mechanisms affecting the 3-dimensional (3D) melt distribution of partially molten ...

Single-lithology and composite xenoliths from Mindszentkálla (Bakony-Balaton Highland Volcanic Field) in the Carpathian-Pannonian region record geochemical evolution of the subcontinental lithospheric mantle.

Abstract The nature of mantle sections exhumed at magma‐poor rifted margins remains poorly constrained, largely because direct sampling of mantle in modern passive margins is exceptionally rare. The Iberia–Newfoundland system is unique in providing drilled mantle rocks on both conjugate margins, offering an unprecedented glimpse into mantle ...

Ophiolitic exposures from the East and Northeast of Nehbandan. Eastern Iran, are remnants of a Cretaceous oceanic basin between Lui and Afghan continental blocks. Based on petrographic studies, they contain harzburgite.

Geophysical Hunt for Chromite in Ophiolite [PDF]
Ophiolite of Oman are famous world over, and are favorite for exploring chromite, which is a source of chromium that is used widely in steel, nichrome, and plating and painting industries.

Perovskite (Prv) was discovered in an abyssal harzburgite from a “mélange” type blueschist-bearing accretionary wedge of the Western Carpathians (Meliata Unit, Slovakia). Perovskite-1 formation in serpentinized orthopyroxene may be simplified by the mass-

Abstract Mid‐mantle (660–2,000 km) seismic observations are commonly attributed to thermo‐chemical heterogeneities or phase transitions, yet many observed features remain difficult to reconcile with these mechanisms alone. It has been shown that the depth‐dependent behavior of bridgmanite deformation generates a strain‐induced seismic discontinuity ...

Abstract Uplift and widespread Late Miocene‐present magmatism in Anatolia are commonly attributed to lithospheric thinning, possibly facilitated by the arrival of hot mantle plume material. There are various lines of evidence for thin present‐day lithosphere, but the spatial extent and degree of lithospheric thinning and the underlying mantle ...
