Carbonatite Versus Silicate Melt Metasomatism Impacts Grain Scale 87Sr/86Sr and 143Nd/144Nd Heterogeneity in Polynesian Mantle Peridotite Xenoliths

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
The Earth's upper mantle is isotopically heterogeneous over large lengthscales, but the lower limit of these heterogeneities is not well quantified. Grain scale trace elemental variability has been observed in mantle peridotites, which suggests that ...

Pyroxene chemistry of xenoliths related to volcanic rocks in the Eslamieh Peninsula (Saray volcano): Implications for geothermobarometry and tectonic setting [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم زمین خوارزمی, 2023
The high K-volcanic rocks of the Eslamieh Peninsula (Saray) are exposed in the northwestern Urumieh-Dokhtar magmatic belt. They mainly include phonolitic lavas and related xenoliths.

POSSIBLE EVIDENCE FOR THE EXISTENCE OF VOLCANOGENIC MAGMATISM IN THE SINYAYA RIVER BASIN AT THE SOUTHERN FLANK OF THE VILYUI SYNECLISE

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2023
The results of different-extension geological survey, exploration and thematic work methods show that the Vilyui syneclise is relatively amagmatic. However, the recent factual evidence in this region indicates the occurrence of magmatism of a different ...

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.

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.

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.

A quantitative analysis of xenolith fragmentation and incorporation in magma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A comparative analysis of xenolith size and shape versus frequency was conducted on datasets collected from four granodioritic plutons: 1) Jackass Lakes pluton, CA (n=104 metavolcanic/metasedimentary xenoliths, 0.001-1.0 km2); 2) Andalshatten batholith ...

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.

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.

Spinel crystals in mantle ultramafic xenoliths as the source of P-T conditions of alteration above the magma chamber beneath the Avacha Volcano (Kamchatka)

open access: yesJournal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2022
This study focuses on the ability of spinel crystals in ultramafic xenoliths, like zircon, to store the primary composition and structure when exposed to magma fluid flows or the thermal heating of ultramafic fragments in magma flows during volcanic ...
