Ophiolite-Related Ultramafic Rocks (Serpentinites) in the Caribbean Region : a Review of their Occurrence, Composition, Origin, Emplacement and Ni-Laterite Soil Formation [PDF]
, 2006 Ultramafic rocks, mainly serpentinized peridotites of mantle origin, are mostly associated with the ophiolites of Mesozoic age that occur in belts along three of the margins of the Caribbean plate. The most extensive exposures are in Cuba. The ultramafic-

Journal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1989 Recent results of dredging and drilling of inner trench slopes have revealed that the abundant ophiolitic rocks (fore-arc ophiolite) crop out in the Izu-Ogasawara, Mariana, Yap, Tonga, and Middle America regions. These are commonly composed of serpentinized peridotite, gabbro, and volcanics of basic to intermediate composition.The fore-arc ophiolite of

The older ultramafic rocks of Aberdeenshire, similarities to SSZ ophiolites and significance for regional tectonics [abstract] [PDF]
, 2008 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’.

Masirah – The other Oman ophiolite: A better analogue for mid-ocean ridge processes? [PDF]
, 2017 Oman has two ophiolites – the better known late Cretaceous northern Oman (or Semail) ophiolite and the lesser known and smaller, Jurassic Masirah ophiolite located on the eastern coast of the country adjacent to the Indian Ocean.

Evidence for spreading in the lower Kam Group of the Yellowknife greenstone belt: Implications for Archaean basin evolution in the Slave Province [PDF]
The Yellowknife greenstone belt is the western margin of an Archean turbidite-filled basin bordered on the east by the Cameron River and Beaulieu River volcanic belts (Henderson, 1981; Lambert, 1982). This model implies that rifting was entirely ensialic
