Ophiolites, which represent segments of oceanic lithosphere obducted onto the continental
crust, provide an important window into processes such as continental rifting, mantle …

Mantle peridotites of ophiolites have traditionally been interpreted as fragments of residual
oceanic lithospheric mantle depleted by partial melting. However, recent petrological …

We present petrological investigations and mineral chemistry of several Tethyan ophiolites
to reveal the occurrence, origin, and fate of water in podiform chromitites. The results show …

Although the involvement of hydrous fluids has been widely invoked in formation of podiform
chromitites in ophiolites, there is lack of natural evidence to signify the role and mechanism …

The Gaositai mafic-ultramafic complex in the North China Craton hosts a significant
chromitite deposit featuring morphological and geochemical characteristics that deviate from …

Chromite is a critical mineral that is of great significance for the development of
metallurgical, chemical, and other industries. In order to study the deep ore prospecting …

The chromite deposits of the Seqi Ultramafic Complex are part of layered ultramafic bodies
that occur within Mesoarchaean tonalitic orthogneiss in the 3.2–3.0 Ga Akia Terrane of the …

The Sabzevar ophiolite belt consists of a series of thrust-bound massifs that widen in extent
to∼ 150 km in NE Iran. The Kuh-Siah harzburgite-dunite massif in the central sector of this …

Dunites in the mantle section of the Oman ophiolite contain olivines which show both a wide
range of compositions (Fo 86.2 to Fo 94) and very high magnesium numbers. These data …

A number of bulk‐rock and mineral Fe and Mg isotope data have been increasingly reported
from ophiolitic rocks, but their anomalous fractionations are still not well addressed. This …
