Basic magmatism associated with Late Cenozoic extension in the western United States: Compositional variations in space and time
TL;DR: In this paper, a suite of 750 basic (MgO>4%) lava samples from all the major volcanic fields in the western United States were analyzed, for major and trace elements, and the data were divided into seven sets representing the main tectonomagmatic provinces: Basin and Range, Western Great Basin, Transition Zone (TZ), Colorado Plateau, Snake River Plain, Southern Rocky Mountains, and Great Plains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incompatible trace-elements in oib and morb and source enrichment in the sub-oceanic mantle
Alex N. Halliday,Der-Chuen Lee,Simone Tommasini,Gareth Davies,Cassi R. Paslick,J. Godfrey Fitton,D. James +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the variability in highly incompatible trace element ratios in ocean island basalts (OIB) from the central Atlantic extend to relatively enriched and fractionated compositions in regions of older oceanic lithosphere.

The Generation of Potassic Lavas from the Eastern Virunga Province, Rwanda
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used acteristics to infer the temporal evolution of the mantle lithosphere and the processes involved in Pb/Pb 40·28-41·5.
