Petrogenesis of Eocene-Oligocene magmatism of the Sulphur Springs Range, central Nevada: The role of magma mixing
… volcanic rocks in the range exhibit evidence of magma mixing and invite comparisons with other mineralized, Eocene mixed magma systems like the Bingham porphyry Cu deposit 300 km farther to the east. The Sulphur Springs igneous suite ranges compositionally through rhyolite, dacite, andesite and …

Deep Earth volatile cycles as revealed by basalt chemistry
… using simple numerical models for concurrent magma mixing and degassing. It is demonstrated that the role of magma degassing was previously underestimated, and the variability in apparent mantle volatile concentrations is largely a result of variability in magma mixing and degassing. Using a …

Petrologic Significance of Multiple Magmas in the Quottoon Igneous Complex, NW British Columbia and SE Alaska
… Complex (QIC) is a major Paleogene (65-56 Ma) magmatic body in NW British Columbia and SE Alaska that was emplaced along the Coast shear zone (CSZ). The QIC contains two different igneous suites that provide information about source regions, magmatic processes and evolving tectonic regimes that …

Petrogenesis of the phase 1 gabbro-diorite of the Miocene Mt Perkins Pluton, northwest Arizona: Implications for the role of mantle-derived mafic magmas in calc-alkaline magma evolution
Mafic magmas play a significant role in the evolution of calc-alkaline magma systems in convergent and extensional environments. The Miocene Mt. Perkins pluton, northwestern Arizona, was emplaced as a series of four discrete magma pulses into a country rock of Precambrian orthogneiss. Phase 1 is a …

Magma mingling : Die hydrodynamische Genese magmatischer Dispersionen
… Silikatschmelzen treten im gesamten Spektrum magmatischer Aktivität auf. Dabei kann es sowohl zu Magma mingling-, als auch zu Magma mixing-Prozessen kommen. Magmatische Enklaven und Dispersionen sind dabei Zeugen der ehemaligen Interaktion und Vermischung der beteiligten Schmelzen. Diese …

Experimental studies of melting and crystallization processes in planetary interiors
… the conditions of origin for two high-titanium magmas from the Moon. The lunar experiments (Chapter 2) were designed to explore the e ects of variable oxygen fugacity (fO2) on the high pressure and high temperature crystallization of olivine and orthopyroxene in high-Ti magmas. The results of …

TEMPORAL AND SPATIAL VARIATIONS IN THE GEOCHEMISTRY AND MINERAOLOGY OF THE YOUNGER HISTORIC LAVAS OF MOUNT ETNA, SICILY
… individual flow fields are related to high-level magma mixing and crystal fractionation processes. The effects of mixing are demonstrated by incompatible trace element chemistry, phenocryst compositions and petrographic textures. Mixing involves several end-member magma compositions, some of which …
