Journal ArticleDOI
Petrogenesis and tectonic setting of the Roman Volcanic Province, Italy
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have shown that the high-K calc-alkaline and the shoshonitic volcanics of the Campania region can be modelled by the partial melting of heterogeneously enriched mantle sources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinopyroxene composition of ophiolite basalts as petrogenetic indicator
TL;DR: In this article, a statistical microprobe study has been carried out on augitic clinopyroxene in high-Ti to low-Ti metabasalts from various Phanerozoic ophiolites; a comparison has been made with clinopyronenes from mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB), oceanic intraplate basalts, island-arc tholeiites and boninites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Continental Flood Basalts and Mantle Plumes: a Case Study of the Northern Ethiopian Plateau
TL;DR: In this paper, geochemical data integrated in a petrogenetic model indicate that the 30Ma Northern Ethiopian continental flood basalts (CFBs) preserve a record of magmas generated from the centre to the flanks of a plume head, currently corresponding to the Afar hotspot.
Journal ArticleDOI
Amphibole genesis via metasomatic reaction with clinopyroxene in mantle xenoliths from Victoria Land, Antarctica
Massimo Coltorti,Luigi Beccaluva,Costanza Bonadiman,Barbara Faccini,Theodoros Ntaflos,Franca Siena +5 more
TL;DR: Petrographic and major and trace element geochemical features of clinopyroxene, amphibole and glass from composite xenoliths from Mt. Melbourne and Mt. Overlord (Victoria Land, Antarctica) were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geochemistry and petrology of the Kermanshah ophiolites (Iran): Implication for the interaction between passive rifting, oceanic accretion, and OIB-type components in the Southern Neo-Tethys Ocean
TL;DR: In this article, a tectono-magmatic model was proposed to explain the different rock associations cropping out in the Kermanshah ophiolites involving a type of rifted margin that is intermediate between the amagmatic Iberia/Ligurian Tethys type and the magmatic, plume-influenced East Greenland type.
