In modeling element abundances in the residue, differences increase with increase in degree of melting. Reactions calculated along the model Iherzolite solidus in CMASN are the only ones available at ...

The D1902 (amphibolite), D1905 (amphibolite) and D1914 (gabbro) are product of partial melting of amphibole-bearing spinel lherzolite, and the D1911 (gabbro) is product of partial melting of ...

The geochemistry and Sr-Nd isotopic compositions indicates the derivation of these rocks from the spinel and garnet lherzolite facies, denoted by increased La/Sm ratios that suggest a 1%–5% degree of ...

Oral presentations are organized into sessions, as indicated in the program, along with the specific time of each contribution. Sessions are divided into five time blocks per day, each lasting 60 ...

The chemistry of the garnets suggests that the source for the kimberlite was a lherzolite that has suffered a partial melting that formed basaltic magma, leaving a harzburgite as a residue.
