Journal ArticleDOI
Mid-Atlantic Ridge–Azores hotspot interactions: along-axis migration of a hotspot-derived event of enhanced magmatism 10 to 4 Ma ago

TL;DR: A recent survey of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge over the southern edge of the Azores Platform shows that two anomalously shallow regions located off-axis on both sides of the ridge are the two flanks of a single rifted volcanic plateau as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thin crust beneath ocean drilling program borehole 735B at the Southwest Indian Ridge
TL;DR: A wide-angle seismic experiment at the Atlantis II Fracture Zone, Southwest Indian Ridge, together with geochemical analyses of dredged basalt glass samples from a site conjugate to Ocean Drilling Program hole 735B has allowed determination of the thickness and the most likely lithological composition of the crust beneath hole 7 35B.
Journal ArticleDOI
Segmentation and melt supply at the Southwest Indian Ridge
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present seismic refraction results from three segments of the very slow spreading Southwest Indian Ridge and infer that melt generation and/or delivery is focused at segment midpoints and varies between segments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrical lithosphere beneath the Kaapvaal craton, southern Africa
Rob L. Evans,Alan G. Jones,Xavier Garcia,Mark R. Muller,Mark P. Hamilton,Mark P. Hamilton,S. F. Evans,C. J. S. Fourie,J. Spratt,J. Spratt,Susan J. Webb,Hielke Jelsma,David A. Hutchins +12 more
TL;DR: The Southern African Magnetotelluric Experiment (SAMTEX) has revealed complex structure in the lithospheric mantle of the southern African Kaapvaal craton and surrounding terranes as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lithospheric structure, evolution and diamond prospectivity of the Rehoboth Terrane and western Kaapvaal Craton, southern Africa: Constraints from broadband magnetotellurics

TL;DR: In this paper, a 2D magnetotelluric (MT) profile of the southern African lithosphere was used to estimate the present-day average lithospheric thickness to a precision of about 20 km.
