Journal ArticleDOI
Thin crust, ultramafic exposures, and rugged faulting patterns at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (22°–24°N)

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors find a good correlation between domains of positive residual gravity anomalies (inferred to have a thin crust) and the distribution of ultramafic samples and also find that thin-crust domains have a rugged topography, thought to reflect strong tectonic disruption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Volcanic growth faults and the origin of Pacific abyssal hills
TL;DR: Submersible-based investigations show that Pacific abyssal hills are created on the flanks of the East Pacific Rise as horsts and grabens which lengthen with time as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tectonic setting and mineralogical and geochemical zonation in the Snake Pit sulfide deposit (Mid-Atlantic Ridge at 23 degrees N)
Journal ArticleDOI
Emplacement of deep crustal and mantle rocks on the west median valley wall of the MARK area (MAR, 23°N)
TL;DR: In this article, the Nautile explored the western axial valley wall in the northern cell of the MARK area (Mid-Atlantic Ridge/Kane fracture zone), where peridotite and gabbro outcrops had been previously reported, in order to constrain the structure and determine emplacement mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interaction between the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the Azores hot spot during the last 85 Myr: Emplacement and rifting of the hot spot-derived plateaus
TL;DR: In this paper, multiple and single-beam bathymetric data are compiled over the Azores plateau to produce a 1 km × 1 km grid between latitudes 32°N and 49°N, and longitudes 22°W and 43°W.
