Size and Composition of the MORB+OIB Mantle Reservoir
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022 Most efforts to characterize the size and composition of the mantle that complements the continental crust have assumed that the mid‐ocean ridge basalt (MORB) source is the incompatible‐element depleted residue of continental crust extraction. The use of

The presence of ancient subducted oceanic crust contributes to seismic anomalies in Large Low Shear Velocity Provinces [PDF]
Communications Earth & EnvironmentLarge Low Shear Velocity Provinces (LLSVPs) near the core-mantle boundary (CMB) are key yet enigmatic structures. Their origin is often linked to the accumulation of subducted mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB), but computational models question MORB as the ...

K/U of the MORB Source and Silicate Earth [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2020 AbstractPotassium (K) informs on the radiogenic heat production, atmospheric composition, and volatile element depletion of the Earth and other planetary systems. Constraints on the abundance of K in the Earth, Moon, and other rocky bodies have historically hinged on K/U values measured in planetary materials, particularly comparisons of the ...

Mineral Chemistry and Whole-rock Geochemistry of Pillow lava from the Arangue Complex, Southeastern Hormozgan, Iran [PDF]
Journal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2021 The Upper Cretaceous Arangue complex is located in the Makran zone at the SE of Iran. The complex consists of ultra-mafic rocks, microgabbro dykes, pillow lavas and lime stones that pillow lavas are mainly exposed to the northwest and southeast part of ...

Zircon dating of the basalt and felsic dyke in Haveri, SW Finland [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2022 The E-MORB type Haveri basalt differs from the volcanic arc type rocks in the Tampere belt showing no subduction signature. It is considered to have formed in a marginal basin prior to the volcanic arc. We present here zircon U-Pb dating on two samples.
