Mafic alkaline metasomatism in the lithosphere underneath East Serbia: evidence from the study of xenoliths and the host alkali basalts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Effects of mafic alkaline metasomatism have been investigated by a combined study of the East Serbian mantle xenoliths and their host alkaline rocks.

How is carbonate crust digested by magma?

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Magma’s volatile budget depends on deep magmatic sources, the degree of differentiation and degassing conditions, and volatile input from the assimilated crust.

The lithospheric mantle and lower crust-mantle relationships under Scotland: a xenolithic perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the British Isles the majority of volcanic rocks containing upper mantle and lower crustal xenoliths occur in Scotland. Most of the occurrences are of Carboniferous–Permian age.

THE NATURE OF ULTRAMAFIC XENOLITHS IN THE BASALTS OF LANZAROTE ISLAND (CANARY ARCHIPELAGO)

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2022
Mineralogical and geochemical study was performed on peridotite xenolith hosted by amygdaline basalts of Lanzarote Island (Canary archipelago). Their modal composition corresponds to harzburgite.

Transport and eruption of mantle xenoliths creates a lagging problem

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2023
Mantle-derived xenoliths entrained by low viscosity magmas indicate transport through great thicknesses of orogenic (≲50-80 km) and cratonic ( $$\lesssim$$ ≲ 20 km) mantle lithosphere.

Imprints of modal metasomatism in the post-Deccan subcontinental lithospheric mantle: petrological evidence from an ultramafic xenolith in an Eocene lamprophyre, NW India

open access: yesSpecial Publications, 2017
We report here on the occurrence of an interesting mantle-derived ultramafic xenolith entrained in an Eocene (c. 55 Ma) lamprophyre dyke from the Dongargaon area of the Chhotaudepur alkaline subprovince located within the Narmada Rift Zone, NW India. The

Petrography and petrology of the Hawaii Scientific Drilling Project lavas: Inferences from olivine phenocryst abundances and compositions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The Mauna Loa (ML) and Mauna Kea (MK) lavas recovered by the Hawaii Scientific Drilling Project (HSDP) include aphyric to highly olivine-phyric basalts.

Whole rock and mineral chemistry of hornblenditic xenoliths in volcanic alkaline rocks from the northern part of Uromieh Dokhatar magmatic belt (NW Iran)

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Géoscience, 2021
An alkaline volcanic activity with a relative Plio-Quaternary age (based on the succession of layers on the field) occurred in the northern part of Uromieh Dokhatar magmatic belt, Iran.

The composition and distribution of the rejuvenated component across the Hawaiian plume: Hf‐Nd‐Sr‐Pb isotope systematics of Kaula lavas and pyroxenite xenoliths

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2013
Rejuvenated volcanism refers to the reemergence of volcanism after a hiatus of 0.5–2 Ma following the voluminous shield building stage of Hawaiian volcanoes.
