Depletion ages and factors of MORB mantle sources
Abstract Sr-Nd-Hf-Pb isotopes show that the depleted MORB mantle (DMM) is not homogeneous. The heterogeneity is attributed to different ages of depletion and/or various degrees of depletion for a given domain of DMM, as well as multiple depletion events, metasomatism, and mixing between DMM and other mantle components.

The Pangkaimen Au–Ag deposits belong to the epithermal Au deposits, which are of great significance for guiding the research and development of this type of gold deposit. Metallogenic model diagram of Pangkaimen Au–Ag deposit. ABSTRACT The gold (Au) metallogenic belt in the northern Great Xing'an Range is characterised by the wide occurrence of the ...

Key Points We recommend using the notation δ122/118SnNIST SRM 3161a for mass‐dependent Sn isotope data. We derived conversion factors relative to NIST SRM 3161a for Puri Sn CEZA (0.132 ± 0.011‰), Sn Lyon (0.229 ± 0.016‰), Sn IPGP (0.162 ± 0.018‰). Tin isotope compositions are presented for SPEX CertiPrep Sn and nine USGS reference materials.

Architecture of ophiolitic mélanges in the Junggar region, NW China
Ophiolitic mélanges, units that contain components of an ophiolite suite, provide crucial information on earth history and orogenic evolution. In this paper, four ophiolitic mélanges are characterized, including the Baijiantan-Yeyagou, Hebukesair ...

The most abundant terrestrial lavas, mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) and ocean island basalt (OIB), are commonly considered to be derived from a depleted MORB-mantle component (DMM) and more specific, variably enriched mantle plume sources.

D" Reflection Polarities Inform Lowermost Mantle Mineralogy
Polarities of seismic reflections at the discontinuity atop the D" region (PdP and SdS) indicate the sign of the velocity contrast across the D" reflector. Recent studies found PdP polarities matching and opposite those of P and PcP.

Owing to their abundance and relative availability on Earth's seafloor, mid‐ocean ridge basalts (MORBs) have a well‐defined chemical element budget, reflected by the low standard deviation associated with typical normal MORB (N‐MORB) composition. However,

Abstract Data are presented for He, Ar and Xe in a number of MORB glasses and crystalline rocks. The rare gases in the latter group are characterized by atmospheric Ar and Xe, coupled with loss of trapped mantle He, Ar and Xe. The glass data also show clear signs of an atmospheric-like component for Ar and Xe. A reasonably constant world-wide average
