At Mid‐Ocean Ridges, hot, reduced, acidic, and metal‐rich fluids are responsible for the formation of ultramafic‐hosted seafloor massive sulfide deposits (UM‐SMSs), where mantle exhumation efficiently operates.

Carbonate alteration of ophiolitic rocks in the Arabian–Nubian Shield of Egypt: sources and compositions of the carbonating fluid and implications for the formation of Au deposits [PDF]
Ultramafic portions of ophiolitic fragments in the Arabian–Nubian Shield (ANS) show pervasive carbonate alteration forming various degrees of carbonated serpentinites and listvenitic rocks.

SHRIMP ion probe zircon geochronology and Sr and Nd isotope geochemistry for southern Longwood Range and Bluff Peninsula intrusive rocks of Southland, New Zealand [PDF]
Permian–Jurassic ultramafic to felsic intrusive complexes at Bluff Peninsula and in the southern Longwood Range along the Southland coast represent a series of intraoceanic magmatic arcs with ages spanning a time interval of 110 m.y.

The relative depletion of high field strength elements (HFSE), such as Nb, Ta and Ti, on normalised trace-element plots is a geochemical proxy routinely used to fingerprint magmatic processes linked to Phanerozoic subduction.

Seismic wide-angle study of accreted Proterozoic crust in southeastern Wyoming [PDF]
A seismic wide-angle xperiment was conducted in southeastern Wyoming, USA to investigate the seismic character of a postulated Proterozoic magmatic arc south of the suture (Cheyenne Belt) to the Archean Wyoming Province.

Petrogenesis and tectonic significance of mafic–ultramafic rocks from Southwest Yunnan, China
This study focuses on the mafic–ultramafic lavas of the Early Carboniferous outcrop in Mangxin, southwestern Yunnan, China. Picrites with 26–32 wt% MgO and a quenched texture are the most significant components of this rock association.

Olivine-chrome-spinel equilibrium in chromitites and ultramafites of Rai-Iz massif, Polar Urals
Olivine and chrome-spinel compositions from chromitites and ore-bearing metamorphosed ultramafic rocks of Rai-Iz massif were compared. It was established that olivine and spinel ferruginosity are directly proportional and increase monotonically from ...
