Trace-element compositions of olivine from 75 mantle rocks of diverse origin, including
xenoliths from kimberlites, basaltic lavas and orogenic peridotites, were determined by laser …

The maximum crystallization temperature of mantle-derived melts provides constraints on
the minimum temperature of their mantle source regions. This temperature can be estimated …

Dependencies of plagioclase/amphibole Al-Si partitioning, D Al/Si plg/amp, and
amphibole/liquid Mg partitioning, D Mg amp/liq, on temperature, pressure and phase …

The amount of water dissolved in magmas at depth beneath volcanoes is fundamental to a
wide range of magmatic and eruptive processes due to water's dominant control on magma …

A new olivine reference material–Mong OL Sh11‐2–for in situ analysis has been prepared
from the central portion of a large (20× 20× 10 cm) mantle peridotite xenolith from a~ 0.5 My …

Olivine compositions provide critical information on the composition and origin of primary
mantle-derived melts and their sources. The minor and trace elements (Ni, Mn, Ca, Al, Cr …

Lattice diffusion coefficients have been determined for 19 elements (Li, Be, Na, Ca, Sc, Ti, V,
Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, Y, Zr, Eu, Gd, Lu and Hf) in a single crystal of San Carlos olivine as a …

In order to better constrain the Mg isotopic composition of the mantle, we have analysed
twenty-eight samples of both oceanic and continental peridotite using a high-precision …

The ultramafic massif of Bulqiza, which belongs to the eastern ophiolitic belt of Albania, is a
major source of metallurgical chromitite ore. The massif consists of a thick (> 4 km) …

This study provides an experimental calibration of the empirical Al-in-olivine thermometer for
mantle peridotites proposed by De Hoog et al.(2010). We report Al concentrations measured …
