Mantle melting versus mantle metasomatism – “The chicken or the egg” dilemma [PDF]
Chemical Geology, 2017 AbstractMost eclogitic mantle xenoliths brought to the surface exhibit a certain degree of enrichment with incompatible elements, usually attributed to the effect of mantle metasomatism by a putative metasomatic fluid. The metasomatic overprint is represented mainly by enrichments in Na, K, Ba, Ti and LREE and the original source of this fluid remains ...

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020 The mineralogy, chemical composition, and physical properties of cratonic mantle eclogites with oceanic crustal protoliths can be modified by secondary processes involving interaction with fluids and melts, generated in various slab lithologies upon ...

Deformation-Induced Mechanical Instabilities at the Core-Mantle Boundary [PDF]
, 2007 Post-Perovskite: The Last Mantle Phase Transition Our understanding of the core-mantle boundary (CMB) region has improved significantly over the past several years due, in part, to the discovery of the post-perovskite phase.

Tertiary-Quaternary intra-plate magmatism in Europe and its relationship to mantle dynamics [PDF]
, 2006 Anorogenic intra-plate magmatism was widespread in Europe from early Tertiary to Recent times, extending west to east from Spain to Bulgaria, and south to north from Sicily to northern Germany. Magmatism is spatially and temporally associated with Alpine-

Oceanic Slab Melting and Mantle Metasomatism [PDF]
Science Progress, 2001 Modern plate tectonic brings down oceanic crust along subduction zones where it either dehydrates or melts. Those hydrous fluids or melts migrate into the overlying mantle wedge trigerring its melting which produces arc magmas and thus additional continental crust. Nowadays, melting seems to be restricted to cases of young (<50 Ma) subducted plates.

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023 The slab–mantle interface in subduction zones is one of the geological boundaries with the most significant chemical potential gradients, which leads to fluid-mediated metasomatic reactions and chemical transport.

COH-fluid induced metasomatism of peridotites in the forearc mantle [PDF]
, 2022 Devolatilization of subducting lithologies liberates COH-fluids. These may become partially sequestered in peridotites in the slab and the overlying forearc mantle, affecting the cycling of volatiles and fluid mobile elements in subduction zones. Here we

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023 At Mid‐Ocean Ridges, hot, reduced, acidic, and metal‐rich fluids are responsible for the formation of ultramafic‐hosted seafloor massive sulfide deposits (UM‐SMSs), where mantle exhumation efficiently operates.
