The Japanese ophiolites are divided into nappe type and melange type by their occurrences. The nappe type formed in a short period (a few 10Ma), and emplaced shortly after its igneous formation keeping its original igneous stratigraphy. They generally escaped from post-emplacement, high-pressure metamorphism. The melange type is a mixture of ophiolitic

Relationships of soil, grass, and bedrock over the Kaweah serpentine melange through spectral mixture analysis of AVIRIS data [PDF]
A linear mixing model is used to model the spectral variability of an AVIRIS scene from the western foothills of the Sierra Nevada and calibrate these radiance data to reflectance.

The older ultramafic rocks of Aberdeenshire, similarities to SSZ ophiolites and significance for regional tectonics [abstract] [PDF]
It has long been known that there are at least two phases of mafic-ultramafic magmatism in NE Scotland (Read 1919), the well known Younger Gabbro suite and a lesser known ‘Older suite’.
