Abstract: Abstract Olivine-free metasomatic mantle-derived xenoliths, frequently recovered from kimberlite and lamprophyre intrusions on the continents, are seldom described from oceanic settings. We report the mineralogy, geochemistry and Sr-Nd-Hf-Pb-Os isotopic compositions of a unique K-rich, hydrous… read more here.

Abstract: The Ontong Java Plateau (OJP) is believed to have formed through large‐scale Cretaceous volcanism, but the impact of the massive volcanism on the lithosphere remains largely unknown. In this study, the ascent process of the… read more here.
