Abstract: Abstract Podiform chromitites are unique rock units of ophiolites and ophiolitic melanges and represent invaluable repositories that reliably record the formation environment and evolution of their source and host rocks. However, there are relatively few… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.oregeorev.2020.103401
Abstract: Abstract Primary high-Al [Cr# = 100 × Cr/(Cr + Al) of 48.2–54.7] chromitites coupled with high-Cr (Cr# = 70.9–80.7) chromitite fragments are identified in the podiform chromitites hosted by the Sartohay ophiolitic melange in west Junggar, northwest China. New… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.oregeorev.2020.103413
Abstract: Abstract Podiform chromitites in the Hegenshan ophiolitic complex from the Inner Mongolia of China display massive, semi-massive, and disseminated textures. The extent of Fe2+–Mg redistribution between high-Al chromite and olivine during sub-solidus cooling is affected… read more here.

DOI: 10.2138/am-2017-5850
Abstract: Abstract The Pozanti-Karsanti ophiolite situated in the eastern Tauride belt, southern Turkey, is a well-preserved oceanic lithosphere remnant comprising, in ascending order, mantle peridotite, ultramafic and mafic cumulates, isotropic gabbros, sheeted dikes, and basaltic pillow… read more here.
