No mantle residues in the Isua Supracrustal Belt
A critical component of our understanding of the evolution of Earth's mantle comes from rocks identified as direct mantle samples. Eoarchaean dunite lenses from the Isua Supracrustal Belt (ISB), North Atlantic Craton, Greenland, have been previously ...
