Journal ArticleDOI

High field strength element enrichment of Pliocene-Pleistocene island arc basalts, Zamboanga Peninsula, Western Mindanao (Philippines)

TL;DR: The authors in this paper suggested that these minerals could be added metasomatically to the mantle through hybridization by percolating slab melts, during which Nb and Ti are preferentially extracted from the adakitic melts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Initiation of subduction and the generation of slab melts in western and eastern Mindanao, Philippines

TL;DR: Adakite is a rare rock type, characterized by low heavy rare earth elements and Y contents together with high Sr/Y ratios, and is considered to be the result of the melting of young subducted oceanic crust, which leaves an eclogite residue as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Late Miocene adakites and Nb-enriched basalts from Vizcaino Peninsula, Mexico: Indicators of East Pacific Rise subduction below southern Baja California?

TL;DR: In this article, a typical slab melt association was emplaced from 11 to 8 Ma in the Santa Clara volcanic field, Vizcaino Peninsula, Baja California Sur, which includes adakitic domes and pyroclastic flow deposits, together with lava flows of niobium-enriched basalts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magmatic source enrichment by slab-derived melts in a young post-collision setting, central Mindanao (Philippines)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed an ion exchange type of enrichment, in which the HFSE, LILE and LREE, mobilized during slab melting, are preferentially enriched in the metasomatized mantle, resulting in a diversity of post-collision magma compositions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adakite-like Lavas from Antisana Volcano (Ecuador): Evidence for Slab Melt Metasomatism Beneath Andean Northern Volcanic Zone

TL;DR: In this paper, an extensive sampling of the Antisana volcano in Ecuador (Northern of the mantle wedge beneath the NVZ in Ecuador) has revealed the presence of adakite-like convection, suggesting that slab melts can be responsible for the metasomatism.
