Melt inclusions are small parcels of melt trapped in crystals within magmatic systems, and are analogous to fluid inclusions formed by trapping of hydrothermal and other fluids during …
The last 15yr have seen an explosion of data on the volatile contents of magmas parental to arc volcanoes. This has occurred due to the intense study of melt inclusions trapped in …
More than 50 per cent of the Earth's upper mantle consists of olivine and it is generally thought that mantle-derived melts are generated in equilibrium with this mineral. Here …

Abstract Early History of Mantle GeochemistryUntil the arrival of the theories of plate tectonics and seafloor spreading in the 1960s, the Earth's mantle was generally believed to …

Results are reported of an exploration of mantle source lithology for intraplate magmas using whole-rock and olivine phenocryst compositions. This analysis includes modern mid …
The trace element composition of olivine is a rapidly growing research area that has several applications of great potential. Mantle olivines can be distinguished from volcanic olivines by …

Advances in analytical geochemistry have made it possible to determine precisely the concentration of many trace elements and their isotopes in rocks. These data provide the …
Y Niu, MJ O'Hara - Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid …, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
Consideration of petrology, geochemistry, and mineral physics suggests that ancient subducted oceanic crusts cannot be the source materials supplying ocean island basalts …
Ion microprobe measurements of the concentrations of H2O, CO2, F, S and Cl and the isotopic composition of hydrogen are reported for populations of olivine-hosted melt …
