The ultrapotassic rocks: Characteristics, classification, and constraints for petrogenetic models

TL;DR: In this paper, the chemical properties of ultrapotassic rocks are defined using the chemical screens K 2 O > 3 wt.%, MgO > 3 Wt.% and Na 2 O/Na 2 O 2 > 2 for whole-rock analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

The geochemistry of potassic lavas from Vulsini, central Italy and implications for mantle enrichment processes beneath the Roman region

TL;DR: In this article, major and trace element variations within the high-K series are consistent with fractional crystallisation from a parental magma similar to the most magnesian leucitites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Petrology and geochemistry of potassic and ultrapotassic volcanism in central Italy: petrogenesis and inferences on the evolution of the mantle sources

TL;DR: In this article, trace element, Sr isotopic and mineral chemical data are reported for mafic volcanic rocks (Mg-value ⩾ 65) from the northern-central sector of the potassic volcanic belt of Central Italy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Geochemical discrimination between shoshonitic and potassic volcanic rocks in different tectonic settings: A pilot study

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented new diagrams based on immobile elements (Al, Ti, P, Y, Zr, Nb, La, Ce, Hf) for discriminating the tectonic setting of PVRs from their geochemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI

The geochemistry and petrogenesis of K-rich alkaline volcanics from the Batu Tara volcano, eastern Sunda arc

TL;DR: In this paper, major and trace element and isotopic data for leucite basanite and leucitic tephrite dykes from the Batu Tara volcano, eastern Sunda arc are presented.

Trace element and isotopic effects of combined wallrock assimilation and fractional crystallization

TL;DR: In this paper, the mass assimilation rate is an arbitrary fraction(r) of the fractional crystallization rate, where r < 1 is a combination of zone refining and fractional scaling.

The effects of assimilation of country rocks by magmas on 18O/16O and 87Sr/86Sr systematics in igneous rocks

TL;DR: In this article, a variety of oxygen and strontium isotope mixing curves were calculated for this process of combined assimilation-fractional crystallization, and the positions and characteristics of the resultant curves on δ18O-87Sr/86Sr diagrams markedly diverged from simple two end-member mixing relationships.

Characteristics and tectonic setting of the shoshonite rock association

TL;DR: The shoshonite association as mentioned in this paper is characterized by hypersthene-olivine normative basalts, low iron enrichment, high Na2O + K2O, high content of light ion lithophile elements, high but variable Al2O3, high Fe 2O3/FeO and low TiO2.

A variably veined suboceanic upper mantle—Genetic significance for mid-ocean ridge basalts from geochemical evidence

TL;DR: A comparison of the trace-element abundances and radiogenic isotope ratios in oceanic basalts and the primordial mantle suggests that the present suboceanic upper mantle has undergone depletion and, in some places, recent re-enrichment events as discussed by the authors.

A simple method to evaluate the matrix effects in X-Ray fluorescence analysis

TL;DR: In this article, a method for computing the matrix effects coefficient of H 2O, Na2O, MgO, Al2O3, SiO2, K2O.
