Fracture Analysis of the Lower Oceanic Crust, Atlantis Bank, Southwest Indian Ridge
<p>Atlantis Bank (AB) is an oceanic core complex (OCC), formed at the slow-spreading (spreading rate/yr) Southwest Indian Ridge (SWIR)-Atlantis II transform junction. AB is a domal massif composed of lower crustal and upper mantle rocks exhumed along a normal-sense detachment shear zone/fault. OCCs …

3D Analysis of Fe-Ti Oxides and How They Affect Crystal-Plastic Deformation in Atlantis Bank, Southwest Indian Ridge
… and crystal-plastic deformation in Atlantis Bank, Southwest Indian Ridge by utilizing Micro-CT scanning. This was done through comparing the Micro-CT scans of 15 samples from three different Ocean Drilling Program and International Ocean Discovery Program drill holes using the Nikon …

The Impact of Fe-Ti Oxide Concentration on the Structural Ridgity of the Lower Oceanic Crust, Atlantis Bank, Southwest Indian Ridge
… deformation in gabbroic samples from Atlantis Bank, Southwest Indian Ridge (SWIR). Atlantis Bank is an oceanic core complex that formed through the exhumation of lower oceanic crust along a detachment fault. OCCs form along slow-spreading ridges and are characterized by the complex …

The evolution of oceanic gabbros : in-situ and ancient examples
… at mid-ocean ridges. Minerals in gabbros from Atlantis Bank, Southwest Indian Ridge, a modern, in-situ example of lower ocean-crust, were analyzed for major and trace-elements. The MELTS algorithm indicates that these gabbros formed by near-fractional crystallization at mid-crustal pressures. …

The Effects of Amphibole- and Sulfide-Producing Melts on Crustal Strength in Gabbros of Lower Oceanic Crust in Oceanic Core Complexes, Mid-Atlantic and Southwest Indian Ridges
… deformation. Thin section samples from the Atlantis Massif, MARK Area, and 13˚-15˚ North of the MAR and the Atlantis Bank of the SWIR were observed with petrography to find these dikelets and identify what type of dikelet is present. SEM-EDS is used to identify the mineral assemblages …
