Mineralised ultramafic rocks in South Greenland

open access: yesRapport Grønlands Geologiske Undersøgelse, 1971
In 1960 several mineralised ultramafic boulders with a remarkable content of Pt were found by M. Loretan in the neighbourhood of Sarqa fjord in the Nanortalik district, South Greenland. This stimulated interest in a closer examination of the mafic and ultramafic rocks of South Greenland and in 1962 and 1963 J. P.

Precambrian Meta-Ultramafic Rocks from the Tobacco Root Mountains, Montana

open access: yes, 2004
Meta-ultramafic rocks occur as small (2 to 100 m long), podiform bodies in all three major Precambrian rock suites of the Tobacco Root Mountains of southwest Montana. Most samples consist of a randomly oriented, coarse-grained assemblage of orthopyroxene,

Xenoliths in the alkali basalts of Makhtesh Ramon of Desert Negev (Israel) as indicators of mantle metasomatosis and magma generation

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2016
Xenoliths in the Early Cretaceous alkali basalts of Makhtesh Ramon basin (southern Israel) are represented by essentially olivine rocks: dunite (usually including clinopyroxen) - 5% of the total amount, lherzolite - 21%, wehrlite - 28%, clinopyroxenite -

Discrimination between extrusive and intrusive Archean ultramafic rocks in the Shaw Dome area using selected major and trace elements

open access: yes, 1979
The ultramafic rocks in the Shaw Dome area, southeast of Timmins, Ontario, are divided on the basis of held criteria into two groups for the purpose of comparing their chemical compositions: (1) extrusive ultramafic rocks consisting of peridotitic ...

Petrogenesis of ultramafic rocks from the Neoproterozoic Bou Azzer Ophiolite (Morocco): new insights into a long-standing geodynamic question

open access: yes
The Neoproterozoic Bou Azzer Ophiolite, located in the Pan-African orogen of the Anti-Atlas, Morocco, exposes a well-preserved mantle section of the ophiolitic sequence.

Serpentine and the geology of serpentinized rocks

open access: yes, 1991
The mineral name "serpentine' is applied to a series of three minerals, lizardite, antigorite, and chrysotile. All three are produced by the hydration of the ferromagnesian minerals of ultramafic rocks at low temperature and pressure under conditions ...

Ultramafic Rocks and the Upper Mantle

open access: yes, 1970
Cosmic abundances of elements and meteorite analogies indicate an ultrabasic mantle. Detailed review of ultramafic rocks in their varied associations suggests that representative mantle sample are included among oceanic and orogenic peridotites, and ...
