对油葫芦沟蛇绿岩中玄武岩进行了地球化学研究, 以探讨其形成环境。油葫芦沟蛇绿岩中玄武岩的主量和微量元素具有低钾富钠的特征, 属低钾(拉斑)系列。玄武岩的球粒陨石标准化稀土元素分配模式图表现为近平坦型, 轻重稀土富集不明显, 属于亏损地幔(N型)。大离子亲石元素(LILE)Rb、K和Sr出现负异常, 高场强元素(HFSE)Nb、Ta、Hf、Zr无负异常, 表现出大洋中脊幔源岩浆作用的特征。构造环境判别图显示, 油葫芦沟玄武岩属于典型的亏损型大洋中脊玄武岩(MORB)。研究结果表明油葫芦沟蛇绿岩中玄武岩为北祁连洋洋壳的组成部分, 北祁连洋在晚元古代—晚寒武世为典型的大洋中脊环境。      

西藏西南部达巴-休古嘎布蛇绿岩带的形成与演化

:该蛇绿岩带的岩体由地幔橄榄岩组成,主要岩石类型是方辉橄榄岩和纯橄榄岩,缺少典型蛇绿岩剖面中的洋壳单元.微量元素和稀土元素特征显示蛇绿岩形成于类似洋中脊的构造环境.笔者提出该区蛇绿岩来源于印度大陆北缘洋盆的洋壳碎片,这个陆缘洋盆与新特提斯洋主体的形成和演化准同步.洋盆的演化模式是:早三叠世,随着印度(冈瓦纳)大陆向南漂移,其北部边缘因引张裂解产生裂谷,于晚三叠世向东开口与新特提斯洋主体连通,洋盆初具洋壳性质,北侧形成阿依拉-仲巴微陆块.侏罗-白垩纪为洋盆洋壳演化期,处于类似洋中脊的构造环境.晚白垩世末洋盆开始闭合.在新特提斯洋板块向北俯冲消减过程中,阿依拉-仲巴微陆块、陆缘洋盆和印度大陆一起随着向北漂移,在印度大陆向北挤压作用下洋盆逐渐收缩以致最终闭合.     

西藏改则地区拉果错蛇绿岩地球化学特征及成因

拉果错蛇绿岩位于西藏改则县南侧,是班公湖-怒江缝合带南侧蛇绿岩带中发育最完整的蛇绿岩之一,可能形成晚侏罗世—早白垩世,主要由地幔橄榄岩、堆晶岩、枕状熔岩、岩墙、斜长花岗岩及放射虫硅质岩等构造单元组成。微量元分析结果表明该蛇绿岩中的中基性岩富集 Sr、Rb 等大离子亲石元素,亏损 Nb、Ta 等高场强元素,具有岛弧型火山岩的特点其在稀土元素球粒陨石标准化配分图解中主要显示平坦型曲线,它们可能是由消减板片流体交代的地幔楔源区的部分熔,形成。拉果错蛇绿岩可能形成于弧间盆地环境,代表了班公湖-怒江缝合带南侧弧-弧碰撞的产物。     

A sheeted dyke complex within the Coolac Ophiolite,southeastern New South Wales

A unit composed of sheeted dykes and an associated unit of sodic felsic rocks have been found within the Coolac Ophiolite, about 5 km east of Coolac township, southeastern N.S.W. The dyke complex consists of small multiple dykes intruding gabbro screens. About half the dykes are basaltic in composition and half are ande‐sitic. Felsic differentiates occur as minor intrusions within the dyke complex, and also constitute the sodic felsic unit. It is suggested that the dyke complex and associated felsic rocks be included in the Honeysuckle Beds, and that the absence of a mappable dyke unit further south within the Honeysuckle Beds is caused by tectonic dismembering of the ophiolite. The dyke complex bears considerable resemblance to the sheeted dyke members of other ophiolite sequences. However, the scale of development is roughly 10 times smaller than at Troodos or Newfoundland, and one‐way chilling is not well developed. The mechanism of intrusion in the Coolac dyke complex therefore is probably not symmetrical spreading about a well defined axis, but a diffuse injection of small multiple dykes within a relatively broad extensional zone. The environment in which such a mechanism might develop, and which is suggested by geochemical evidence, including the high proportion of intermediate and felsic rocks, is that of a small basin adjacent to or within an island‐arc system.     

Early Carboniferous ophiolite in central Qiangtang,northern Tibet: record of an oceanic back-arc system in the Palaeo-Tethys Ocean

Zircon U–Pb dating of two samples of metagabbro from the Riwanchaka ophiolite yielded early Carboniferous ages of 354.4 ± 2.3 Ma and 356.7 ± 1.9 Ma. Their positive zircon εHf(t) values (+7.9 to +9.9) indicate that these rocks were derived from a relatively depleted mantle. The metagabbros can be considered as two types: R1 and R2. Both types are tholeiitic, with depletion of high-field-strength elements (HFSE) and enrichment of large-ion lithophile elements (LILE) similar to those of typical back-arc basin basalts (BABB), such as Mariana BABB and East Scotia Ridge BABB. Geochemical and isotopic characteristics indicate that the R1 metagabbro originated from a back-arc basin spreading ridge with addition of slab-derived fluids, whereas the R2 metagabbro was derived from a back-arc basin mantle source, with involvement of melts and fluids from subducted ocean crust. The Riwanchaka ophiolite exhibits both mid-ocean ridge basalts- and arc-like geochemical affinities, consistent with coeval ophiolites from central Qiangtang. Observations indicate that the Qiangtang ophiolites developed during the Late Devonian–early Carboniferous (D₃–C₁) in a back-arc spreading ridge above an intra-oceanic subduction zone. Based on our data and previous studies, we propose that an oceanic back-arc basin system existed in the Longmuco–Shuanghu–Lancang Palaeo-Tethys Ocean during the D₃–C₁ period.     

Petrogenesis and tectonic significance of the early Paleozoic Delenuoer ophiolite in the Central Qilian Shan,northeastern Tibetan Plateau

The newly discovered early Paleozoic Delenuoer ophiolite, in the western margin of the Central Qilian Shan, is composed of serpentinized peridotite, cumulate gabbro, diabase, massive basalt, and pillow basalt. This study presents geochronological and geochemical data for the cumulate gabbro and basalt. LA–ICP–MS U–Pb dating of zircons from the cumulate gabbro yielded a magmatic crystallization age of 472 ​± ​4 ​Ma. The basalts have normal mid-ocean ridge basalt (N-MORB) compositions and a narrow range of ε_Nd(t) values (+4.5 to ​+5.3), which indicates they were derived from a depleted mantle source. On the basis of regional geological constraints, it is proposed that the Delenuoer ophiolite is a westward extension of the South Ophiolite Belt (Yushigou–Youhulugou–Donggou–Dongcaohe Ophiolite Belt) in the North Qilian Shan. The Delenuoer ophiolite, along with the Gulangxia–Delenuoer fault, defines the westernmost part of the tectonic boundary between the North and Central Qilian Shan. This ophiolite may have formed during southward subduction of the Qilian Ocean slab during the early Paleozoic.     

日喀则蛇绿岩研究中的几个问题

日喀则蛇绿岩是中国最著名的蛇绿岩,但是,许多问题存在争论,许多现象没有搞清楚。文中讨论了日喀则蛇绿岩中一些重要的现象以及对目前发现的许多矛盾如何考虑的问题。例如,(1)日喀则蛇绿岩中是否存在席状岩墙群?是否存在席状岩床群?本文认为,席状岩墙群应当是存在的,因为有不对称冷凝边出现。而席状岩床群可能是有问题的,岩床作为侵入体可以出现在许多地方,但是,蛇绿岩中不可能出现席状岩床群,尤其还把它作为蛇绿岩岩石组合的一个单元。笔者认为,所谓的席状岩床群可能是席状岩流群,它不是一个独立的单元,是玄武岩单元下部的成员。(2)日喀则蛇绿岩是否统统是蛇绿岩是一个需要考虑的问题,雅鲁藏布江东西两段出现的岩石组合及其产出背景与日喀则地区的蛇绿岩明显不同,其中有些可能未必是蛇绿岩。(3)自1972年彭罗斯会议以来,蛇绿岩研究发展到现在,可能已经进入了一个关键时期。文中回顾了蛇绿岩的定义及其构造意义,指出1972年彭罗斯会议关于蛇绿岩的定义仍然是适用的。蛇绿岩可以概括为洋壳+地幔,这个洋壳来自板块扩张脊,是年轻的;这个地幔是大洋岩石圈地幔,也可能保留有古老岩石圈地幔的印记。蛇绿岩产于板块扩张脊,这是蛇绿岩构造含义的唯一解,蛇绿岩不存在多解性。(4)日喀则蛇绿岩的许多基本观点主要是法国学者提出来的,如关于岩床群的见解,慢速扩张的见解等。但是,上述见解是否都是对的是需要思考的。日喀则蛇绿岩具有得天独厚的条件,我们应当很好利用这个条件,努力把我们的研究做好,为全球蛇绿岩研究贡献我们的一份力量。     

Geochemistry of mid-ocean ridge mafic intrusives from the Manipur Ophiolitic Complex,Indo-Myanmar Orogenic Belt,NE India

Mafic intrusives emplaced within the mélange zone of the Manipur Ophiolitic Complex are subalkalinetholeiitic affinity with Fe-enrichment. Based on the field occurrences, textures-mineralogy and whole-rock compositions, these mafic intrusives can be identified as type-I (gabbro intrusives) and type-II (basalt-dolerite dykes). The type-I resembling enriched-type mid-ocean ridge basalt (E-MORB) shows moderate LREE enrichment (La_N/Sm_N = 2.5–2.6), slightly enriched MORB normalized HFSE patterns possibly represent melts derived from enriched MORB sub-oceanic mantle sources by small degree of partial melting. The other type-II has normal-type mid-ocean ridge basalt (N-MORB) geochemical features, as it exhibits nearly flat to depleted LREE (La_N/Sm_N = 1.0–0.6), flat MORB normalized HFSE patterns with slight LREE/HREE depletion (Ce_N/Yb_N = 1.37–0.46). It might have been derived from depleted MORB type sub-oceanic mantle source. The MORB signature displayed by these mafic intrusives indicates that they are dismembered fragments of oceanic crust generated at mid-ocean spreading ridge system and support the hypothesis that the Manipur ophiolites was initially formed in the divergent plate margin.     

Geochemistry and origin of Mn-deposits in the Waziristan ophiolite complex, north Waziristan, Pakistan

The Waziristan ophiolite complex is located along the western margin of the Indian plate in northwestern Pakistan. The Mn-deposits in the Saidgi and Shuidar areas are part of this ophiolite complex. These deposits, both banded and massive in nature, are hosted by metachert and are generally overlying metavolcanics. Braunite and cryptocrystalline quartz are the main constituents of the manganese ores in both areas. Hematite occurs in the Shuidar deposits as a minor phase. Metacherts are microcrystalline aggregates of microcrystalline quartz, chalcedony, and lesser hematite. Chemically, the studied Mn-deposits and associated metacherts are very similar to those formed by submarine hydrothermal effusive processes. The deposits originated along sea-floor spreading centers (mid-ocean ridges) within the Neo-Tethys Ocean and were later obducted as part of the Waziristan ophiolite complex.

Geology, Geochemistry and Tectonic Significance of Mafic-ultramafic Rocks of Mesoproterozoic Phulad Ophiolite Suite of South Delhi Fold Belt, NW Indian Shield

A thick sequence of mafic-ultramafic rocks, occurs along a major shear zone (Phulad lineament), running across the length of Aravalli Mountain Range for about 300 kms. It has been suggested, that this sequence may represent a fragment of ophiolite or a rift related metavolcanic suite made up of basalts and fractionated ultramafics. The geological and tectonic significance of the complex is assessed using field relationships, petrography and geochemistry. Structurally, the lowest part of the complex comprises a discontinuous band of plastically deformed harzburgite (mantle component) followed by layered cumulus gabbroic rocks (crustal component). A complex of non-cumulus rocks comprising hornblende schists, gabbros, sheeted dykes and pillowed basalts structurally overlies layered gabbros. Huge bodies of diorite intrude volcanics.

Geochemical classification suggests that all non-cumulus mafic rocks are sub-alkaline basalts except one variety of dykes which shows mildly alkaline character. The sub-alkaline rocks are tholeiite to calc-alkaline with boninite affinity. Tectono-magmatic variation diagrams and MORB normalised patterns suggest a fore arc tectonic regime for the eruption of these rocks.

The mafic rocks of Phulad Ophiolite Suite are zoned across the strike in terms of their distribution from west to east. The hornblende schists and basalts are exposed at the westernmost margin followed by gabbros and dykes. The alkaline dyke occurs at the easternmost part. The rocks of Phulad suite are juxtaposed with shallow water sediments in the east followed by platformal sediments and then continental slope sediments in the further east indicating gradual thickening of the crust from west to east and an eastward subduction. The geochemical interpretation presented in this study, together with discussion of lithological association is used to decipher the tectonic evolution of the Mesoproterozoics of NW Indian shield.     

Progressive metamorphism of the Taitao ophiolite; evidence for axial and off-axis hydrothermal alterations

We estimated metamorphic conditions for the  6 Ma Taitao ophiolite, associated with the Chile triple junction. The metamorphic grade of the ophiolite, estimated from secondary matrix minerals, changes stratigraphically downwards from the zeolite facies, through the prehnite–actinolite facies, greenschist facies and the greenschist–amphibolite transition, to the amphibolite facies. The metamorphic facies series corresponds to the low-pressure type. The metamorphic zone boundaries are subparallel to the internal lithological boundaries of the ophiolite, indicating that the metamorphism was due to axial hydrothermal alteration at a mid-ocean ridge.

Mineral assemblages and the compositions of veins systematically change from quartz-dominated, through epidote-dominated, to prehnite-dominated with increasing depth. Temperatures estimated from the vein assemblages range from  230 °C in the volcanic unit to  380 °C at the bottom of the gabbro unit, systematically  200 °C lower than estimates from the adjoining matrix minerals. The late development of veins and the systematically lower temperatures suggest that the vein-forming alteration was due to off-axis hydrothermal alteration.

Comparison between the Taitao ophiolite with its mid-ocean ridge (MOR) affinity, and other ophiolites and MOR crusts, suggests that the Taitao ophiolite has many hydrothermal alteration features similar to those of MOR crusts. This is consistent with the tectonic history that the Taitao ophiolite was formed at the South Chile ridge system near the South American continent (Anma, R., Armstrong, R., Danhara, T., Orihashi, Y. and Iwano, H., 2006. Zircon sensitive high mass-resolution ion microprobe U–Pb and fission-track ages for gabbros and sheeted dykes of the Taitao ophiolite, Southern Chile, and their tectonic implications.

西藏南部日喀则地区蛇绿岩地质

近年来,对雅鲁藏布蛇绿岩带的研究引起了国内外学者的广泛兴趣,因为它不仅对了解中生代以来特提斯海的演变,而且对阐明青藏高原地质发展历史都是十分重要的。虽然,这条带内大规模超基性岩体的分布早已被发现,有些岩体已作过很好的研究。但是,整个蛇绿岩组合的综合性研究还刚开始。最近一些作者根据野外路线调查,对这条蛇绿岩带作了初步的论述。但由于缺乏对蛇绿岩比较系统的填图工作,关于它的分布、组成、层序、形成、侵位及其演化历史还有许多重要情况不十分清楚。     

Manganese and ferromanganese ores from different tectonic settings in the NW Himalayas,Pakistan

In Pakistan manganese and ferromanganese ores have been reported from the Hazara area of North West Frontier Province, Waziristan agencies in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas and the Lasbela-Khuzdar regions of Baluchistan. This study is focused on comparison of mineralogy and geochemistry of the continental ferromanganese ores of Hazara and the ophiolitic manganese ores of the Waziristan area of Pakistan. In the Hazara area, ferromanganese ores occur at Kakul, Galdanian and Chura Gali, near Abbottabad, within the Hazira Formation of the Kalachitta-Margala thrust belt of the NW Himalayas of the Indo-Pakistan Plate. The Cambrian Hazira Formation is composed of reddish-brown ferruginous siltstone, with variable amounts of clay, shale, ferromanganese ores, phosphorite and barite. In Waziristan, manganese ores occur at Shuidar, Mohammad Khel and Saidgi, within the Waziristan ophiolite complex, on the western margin of the Indo-Pakistan Plate in NW Pakistan. These banded and massive ores are hosted by metachert and overlie metavolcanics.The ferromanganese ores of the Hazara area contain variable amount of bixbyite, partridgeite, hollandite, pyrolusite and braunite. Bixbyite and partridgeite are the dominant Mn-bearing phases. Hematite dominates in Fe-rich ores. Gangue minerals are iron-rich clay, alumino-phosphate minerals, apatite, barite and glauconite are present in variable amounts, in both Fe-rich and Mn-rich varieties. The texture of the ore phases indicates greenschist facies metamorphism. The Waziristan ores are composed of braunite, with minor pyrolusite and hollandite. Hematite occurs as an additional minor phase in the Fe-rich ores of the Shuidar area. The only silicate phase in these ores is cryptocrystalline quartz.The chemical composition of the ferromanganese ores in Hazara suggests that the Mn–Fe was contributed by both hydrogenous and hydrothermal sources, while the manganese ores of Waziristan originated only from a hydrothermal source. It is suggested that the Fe–Mn ores of the Hazara area originated from a mixed hydrothermal–hydrogenetic source in shallow water in a ontinental shelf environment due to the transgression and regression of the sea, while the Mn ores of Waziristan were formed at sea-floor spreading centers within the Neo-Tethys Ocean, and were later obducted as part of the Waziristan ophiolite complex.     

Study on the Tectonic Setting for the Ophiolites in Xigaze, Tibet

The Xigaze ophiolite is located in the middle section of the Yarlung Zangbo River ophiolite belt and includes a well-preserved sequence section of seven ophiolite blocks. The relatively complete ophiolitic sequence sections are represented by Jiding, Dejixiang, Baigang, and Dazhuqu ophiolites and consist of three–four units. The complete ophiolite sequence in order from the bottom to top consists of mantle peridotite, cumulates, sheeted sill dike swarms, and basic lavas±radiolarian chert. These cumulates are absent in the remaining blocks of Dejixiang and Luqu. The age of radiolaria in the radiolarian chert is Late Jurassic–Cretaceous. The basalt and ultramafic rock of the ophiolite also are overlaid by Tertiary Liuqu conglomerate, which contains numerous pebble components of ophiolite, indicating that the Tethys Ocean began to close at the end of Cretaceous Period. The isotopic data of gabbro, diabase, and albite granite in the Xigaze ophiolite are approximately 126–139 Ma, which indicates that the ophiolite formed in the Early Cretaceous. The K–Ar age of amphibole in garnet amphibolite in the ophiolite mélange is 81 Ma, indicating that tectonic ophiolite emplacement occurred at the end of Late Cretaceous.     

甘肃北山红石山蛇绿岩锆石U-Pb年代学研究及构造意义

红石山蛇绿岩位于中蒙边境附近,出露于红石山-百合山-蓬勃山蛇绿混杂岩带最西段。岩石地球化学分析表明,红石山蛇绿岩中的玄武岩主量、微量及稀土元素皆显示类似MORB型玄武岩的地球化学特征,表现为低Na₂O+K₂O（2.99%）和P₂O₅（0.08%）,中等含量TiO₂（1.46%）;LREE球粒陨石标准化分配型式具平坦型和轻稀土略微富集的特征。微量元素原始地幔标准化分配型式显示出富集大离子亲石元素（Rb、K）的特征,HFSE变化相对较为稳定。红石山蛇绿岩中的辉长岩的LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb同位素定年结果显示,其形成时代为346.6±2.8Ma,代表该蛇绿岩形成时代,即为早石炭世。结合前人研究成果,笔者认为红石山蛇绿岩可能为石炭纪大陆裂谷向大洋转化的构造环境下形成的初始小洋盆,其向西可与新疆境内的巴音沟蛇绿岩对比,二者同属“红海型”洋盆初始洋壳的地质记录。     

北祁连山中段早中奥陶世蛇绿岩中席状岩墙杂岩的发现及其地质意义

作为蛇绿岩套重要组成部分之一的席状岩墙杂岩(Sheeted dyke complex)近来在北祁连山中段肃南县大岔大坂北坡的早中奥陶世蛇绿岩中被发现。这一发现对于祁连山早古生代蛇绿岩来说尚属首次,而且对于研究蛇绿岩的发展演化及探讨奥陶纪时洋底扩张都有重要意义。席状岩墙杂岩由一系列具单向冷凝边的辉绿岩墙组成,以一墙挨一墙的形式产出,岩墙间无任何填充物。席状岩墙杂岩在矿物组合上,常量元素、稀土元素及痕量元素地球化学特征和配分模式,甚至金属硫化物矿化作用方面都有类似之处。这些证据表明席状岩墙杂岩是连通其下岩浆房与其上枕状熔岩的通道。席状岩墙的单向冷凝边为岩浆上升方式和扩张洋脊的存在提供了令人信服的证据。根据Zr/Y—Zr关系图式,得出该区洋脊的扩张速率大约为2cm/a。     

Intrusive processes at ocean ridges: Evidence from the sheeted dyke complex of Masirah, Oman

Masirah Island largely consists of a late Mesozoic ophiolite which includes extensive areas of near-vertical, ENE—WSW striking, sheeted dykes. Previously the possibility has been suggested of a correlation between the similarly-aged ophiolites of Masirah and the Semail Complex of the Oman Mts. However, the Masirah ENE–WSW trend contrasts with N—S dyke trends from the Wadi Jizi area of the Semail, possibly suggesting two unrelated spreading centres. The dykes pass up into a pillow lava—minor sediment sequence, down into both layered and unlayered gabbros and are bounded to the west by a major N—S mélange zone which may have originated as a ridge transform fault. Age relations of the dykes and the gabbros are complex: the dykes contain a variable proportion of gabbro screens representing earlier crystallization, but they are also intruded by several small gabbro bodies which are themselves cut by still later dykes. The lava and dyke—gabbro screen sequence shows evidence of metamorphism from zeolite to low amphibolite grade. This metamorphism was caused by ridge hydrothermal activity which appears to have been effective approximately to the lower levels of the dykes. The rapid passage from low-amphibolite dykes to fresh gabbro suggests lithological control of the metamorphism. A combination of structural, geochemical and mineral phase studies may indicate generation in a slow spreading ridge environment and near-ridge metamorphism caused by a geothermal gradient of approximately 200°C/km.     

Mafic dykes derived from Early Cretaceous depleted mantle beneath the Dabie orogenic belt: implications for changing lithosphere mantle beneath Eastern China

SHRIMP zircon U–Pb geochronological, elemental and Sr–Nd isotopic data from Early Cretaceous mafic dykes in North Dabie orogenic belt elucidate a change of Mesozoic lithospheric mantle in eastern China. The dykes are predominantly dolerite with the major mineral assemblage clinopyroxene + hornblende + plagioclase and yield a SHRIMP zircon U–Pb age of 111.6 ± 5.3 Ma. They have a narrow range of SiO₂ from 46.16% to 49.78%, and relative low concentrations of K₂O (1.07−2.62%), Na₂O (2.45−3.54%), Al₂O₃ (13.04−14.07%), and P₂O₅ (0.42−0.55%) but relatively high concentration of MgO (5.94–6.61%) with Mg^# 52–54. All the samples are characterized by enrichment of large ion lithophile elements (LILE, e.g., Ba, Th) and high field strength elements (HFSE, e.g., Nb, Ti). (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr)_i ratios from 0.704 to 0.705, ε_Nd values from 3.36 to 4.33 and mantle‐depletion Nd model ages (T_2DM) in the range 0.56–0.64 Ga indicate that the magma of the Baiyashan mafic dykes was derived from a young depleted mantle source. This finding is different from previous research on mafic dykes in the age range 120–138 Ma that revealed enrichment of LILE and depletion of HFSE, high initial Sr isotopic ratios and negative ε_Nd, value which represents an old enriched mantle source. Ours is the first report of the existence of Early Cretaceous depleted mantle in eastern China and it implies that changing of enriched mantle to depleted mantle occurred at ca. 112 Ma, associated with back‐arc extension which resulted from the subduction of the Palaeo‐Pacific Plate towards the Asian Continent.

西藏吉定蛇绿岩地球化学特征及其构造指示意义

Deep and High-temperature Hydrothermal Circulation in the Oman Ophiolite--Petrological and Isotopic Evidence

A systematic search for evidence of high-temperature hydrousalteration within the gabbros of the Samail ophiolite (Oman)shows that most of the gabbros have been affected by successivestages of alteration, starting above 975°C and ending below500°C. Sr and O isotopic analyses provide constraints onthe nature and origin of the fluids associated with these alterationevents. Massive gabbros, dykes and veins and their associatedminerals depart from mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB)-source magmasignatures (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr >0·7032 and depleted
