Olivine-Liquid Equilibrium
Peter L. Roeder,R. F. Emslie +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a number of experiments have been conducted in order to study the equilibria between olivine and basaltic liquids and to try and understand the conditions under which OIVINE will crystallize.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Range of Spinel Compositions in Terrestrial Mafic and Ultramafic Rocks
Stephen Barnes,Peter L. Roeder +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors defined compositional fields for spinels from a wide variety of mafic and metamorphosed igneous rocks, including ophiolitic chromitites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crystallization of Chromite and Chromium Solubility in Basaltic Melts
Peter L. Roeder,I. Reynolds +1 more
Journal ArticleDOI
A re-evaluation of the olivine-spinel geothermometer
TL;DR: A re-evaluation of the geothermometer has shown that more realistic temperatures can be obtained for volcanic rocks by using a different free energy value of FeCr2O4 in the formulation.
Journal Article
Chromite; from the fiery rain of chondrules to the Kilauea Iki lava lake
TL;DR: In this paper, the spinel-group minerals from terrestrial sources are compared to those from chondritic meteorites, and the results show that the composition of chromite in unequilibrated chondrites is consistent with crystallization from a chondrite melt.
