Glass Mountain, California, consists of >50 km3 of high-silica rhyolite lavas and associated pyroclastic deposits that erupted over a period of >1 my preceding explosive
eruption of the Bishop Tuff and formation of the Long Valley caldera at 0.73 Ma. These “minimum-melt” rhyolites yield Fe-Ti-oxide
temperatures of 695–718°C and contain sparse phenocrysts of plagioclase+quartz+magnetite+apatite±sanidine, biotite, ilmenite,
allanite, and zircon. Incompatible trace elements show similar or larger ranges within the Glass Mountain suite than within
the Bishop Tuff, despite a much smaller range of major-element concentrations, largely due to variability among the older
lavas (erupted between 2.1 and 1.2 Ma). Ratios of the most incompatible elements have larger ranges in the older lavas than
in the younger lavas (1.2–0.79 Ma), and concentrations of incompatible elements span wide ranges at nearly constant Ce/Yb,
suggesting that the highest concentrations of these elements are not the result of extensive fractional crystallization alone;
rather, they are inherited from parental magmas with a larger proportion of crustal partial melt. Evidence for the nature
of this crustal component comes from the presence of scarce, tiny xenocrysts derived from granitic and greenschist-grade metamorphic
rocks. The wider range of chemical and isotopic compositions in the older lavas, the larger range in phenocryst modes, the
eruption of magmas with different compositions at nearly the same time in different parts of the field, and the smaller volume
of individual lavas suggest either that more than one magma body was tapped during eruption of the older lavas or that a single
chamber tapped by all lavas was small enough that the composition of its upper reaches easily affected by new additions of
crustal melts. We interpret the relative chemical, mineralogical, and isotopic homogeneity of the younger Glass Mountain lavas
as reflecting eruptions from a large, integrated magma chamber. The small number of cruptions between 1.4 and 1.2 ma may have
allowed time for a large magma body to coalesce, and, as the chamber grew, its upper reaches became less affected by new inputs
of crustal melts, so that trace-element trends in magmas erupted after 1.2 Ma are largely controlled by fractional crystallization.
The extremely low Sr concentrations of Glass Mountain lavas imply extensive crystallization in chambers at least hundreds
of cubic kilometers in volume. The close similarity in Sr, Nd, and Pb isotopic ratios between the younger Glass Mountain lavas
and unaltered Bishop Tuff indicates that they tapped the same body of magma, which had become isotopically homogenous by 1.2
Ma but continued to differentiate after that time. From 1.2 to 0.79 Ma, volumetric eruptive rates may have exceeded rates
of differentiation, as younger Glass Mountain lavas become slightly less evolved with time. Early-erupted Bishop Tuff is more
evolved than the youngest of the Glass Mountain lavas and is characterized by slightly different trace element ratios. This
suggests that although magma had been present for 0.5 my, the composiional gradient exhibited by the Bishop Tuff had not been
a long-term, steady-state condition in the Long Valley magma chamber, but developed at least in part during the 0.06-my hiatus
between extrusion of the last Glass Mountain lava and the climactic eruption. 相似文献

Kilauea Volcano has erupted lava from its summit caldera andfrom two rift zones that extend from the summit towards theeast and south-west. Lavas erupted from the summit of the volcanodiffer from each other principally in their content of olivineand define lines of ‘olivine control’ on magnesiavariation diagrams. Lavas erupted on the rift zones may be similarin composition to the summit lavas or may be differentiatedby processes that involve minerals other than olivine. All ofthe differentiated lavas have less than 6·8 per centMgO and plot off the extension of olivine control lines forthe summit lavas. Prehistoric vents (before A.D. 1750) fromwhich differentiated lavas have been erupted are found on theeast rift zone and in the western Koae fault zone adjacent tothe south-west rift zone; historic vents for differentiatedlavas are confined to the east rift zone. Twenty-one new analysesare presented for several of the east rift differentiates andfor the newly discovered differentiates adjacent to the south-westrift zone. The differentiates have MgO as low as 3·9per cent and SiO2 as high as 56 per cent; both extremes arefound in the prehistoric lavas adjacent to the south-west rift. Detailed petrochemical studies suggest the following conclusions:
- Thechemical composition of magma erupted at Kilauea summitvarieswith the date of eruption. Lavas erupted before 1750,duringthe eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and in the twentiethcentury form groups that can be distinguished chemically. Ona lesser scale, each Kilauea summit eruption in the twentiethcentury has a chemistry that is distinctive with respect tothe chemistry of every other summit eruption.
- During lateprehistoric time pockets of differentiated magmawere formedwithin the rift zones by separation of the liquidremainingafter partial crystallization of bodies of summitmagma. Thisprocess presumably is still going on within theeast rift zone,but the more recently separated liquids havenot yet been eruptedto the surface. The relative time at whichthese differentiatedmagmas were produced can be estimated fromcalculations basedon their chemical compositions, which showthat the differentiatescould lie on the liquid line of descentfor Kilauea summit magmaof prehistoric composition but noton any liquid line of descentfor younger summit magmas.
- Lava from some eruptions, notablythe early part of the 1955eruption on the lower east rift,has the composition of theliquid fraction as it is generatedwithin the rift. Lava compositionsof other eruptions, includingthose of the later lavas of 1955,are best explained by mixingof magma supplied from a centralreservoir beneath Kilauea summitwith the differentiated liquidin the rift. Lava from each summiteruption is unique chemically,so it is possible to recognizeits presence or absence as componentsof mixing in such mixedlavas. It appears that summit magmaof composition characteristicof the 1952 and 1961 Halemaumaueruptions contributed to thecomposition of the mixed lavasproduced in the latter part ofthe 1955 eruption. Summit magmaof 1961 composition is alonesufficient to explain the compositionof mixed lavas eruptedin 1960 and 1961. In rift lavas eruptedfrom 1962 to 1965, thecomposition of lava erupted in Halemaumauin 1967, in additionto the 1961 composition, is a componentof mixing, and it isthe dominant summit component in the compositionof the two1965 eruptions. The proportion of summit magma todifferentiatedmagma needed to explain the composition of lavaserupted onthe upper east rift increases from 1961 to 1965;this increaseindicates that the differentiated magma was beingdiluted andused up by repeated flooding of this part of therift zone bymagma supplied from the central reservoir.
- The fact that componentsof ‘summit composition’appear in rift eruptionsbefore they appear undiluted in Halemaumausuggests that thecentral reservoir is vertically zoned. Rifteruptions are fedfrom lower levels where younger magma is available,and summiteruptions are fed from the relatively older magmaabove. Thechemical distinction between lava of successive summiteruptionsimplies that significant convective mixing of magmadoes nottake place throughout the central reservoir.
- The unique anduniform composition of lava of each successivesummit eruptionalso suggests that summit eruptions end whenall of the magmaof one composition has been erupted. The magmaerupted fromthe upper levels of the reservoir during one cycleis continuallyreplaced from below by younger magma of differentcomposition.In order for eruption to be renewed in Halemaumau,new magmafrom the mantle must be held in storage at intermediatelevelsbefore it attains an ‘eruptive state’.
- The hypothesispresented in 2–4 above permits qualitativepredictionsconcerning future lava compositions. The compositionof thenext lava to be erupted in Halemaumau is expected tobe distinctfrom that of the 1967 eruption, and this compositionwill presumablybe identified in rift eruptions occurring between1967 and thetime of its appearance in Halemaumau.
- Differentiates of prehistoricage also were apparently formedin the same way as those ofhistoric age, but the mixing cannotbe described quantitativelybecause of poor control on the stratigraphyand the compositionsof erupted lavas. One lava in the Koaegroup, that from YellowCone, appears to be a mixture of a picriticmagma (12 per centMgO) with a differentiated liquid with lessthan 2·5per cent MgO and nearly 60 per cent SiO2.

The Aurora volcanic field, located along the northeastern margin of Mono Lake in the Western Great Basin, has erupted a diverse
suite of high-K and shoshonitic lava types, with 48 to 76 wt% SiO2, over the last 3.6 million years. There is no correlation between the age and composition of the lavas. Three-quarters of
the volcanic field consists of evolved (<4 wt% MgO) basaltic andesite and andesite lava cones and flows, the majority of which
contain sparse, euhedral phenocrysts that are normally zoned; there is no evidence of mixed, hybrid magmas. The average eruption
rate over this time period was ∼200 m3/km2/year, which is typical of continental arcs and an order of magnitude lower than that for the slow-spreading mid-Atlantic
ridge. All of the Aurora lavas display a trace-element signature common to subduction-related magmas, as exemplified by Ba/Nb
ratios between 52 and 151. Pre-eruptive water contents ranged from 1.5 wt% in plagioclase-rich two-pyroxene andesites to ∼6
wt% in a single hornblende lamprophyre and several biotite-hornblende andesites. Calculated oxygen fugacities fall within
–0.4 and +2.4 log units of the Ni-NiO buffer. The Aurora potassic suite follows a classic, calc-alkaline trend in a plot of
FeOT/MgO vs SiO2 and displays linear decreasing trends in FeOT and TiO2 with SiO2 content, suggesting a prominent role for Fe-Ti oxides during differentiation. However, development of the calc-alkaline trend
through fractional crystallization of titanomagnetite would have caused the residual liquid to become so depleted in ferric
iron that its oxygen fugacity would have fallen several log units below that of the Ni-NiO buffer. Nor can fractionation of
hornblende be invoked, since it has the same effect as titanomagnetite in depleting the residual liquid in ferric iron, together
with a thermal stability limit that is lower than the eruption temperatures of several andesites (∼1040–1080°C; derived from
two-pyroxene thermometry). Unless some progressive oxidation process occurs, fractionation of titanomagnetite or hornblende
cannot explain a calc-alkaline trend in which all erupted lavas have oxygen fugacites ≥ the Ni-NiO buffer. In contrast to
fractional crystallization, closed-system equilibrium crystallization will produce residual liquids with an oxygen fugacity
that is similar to that of the initial melt. However, the eruption of nearly aphryic lavas argues against tapping from a magma
chamber during equilibrium crystallization, a process that requires crystals to remain in contact with the liquid. A preferred
model involves the accumulation of basaltic magmas at the mantle-crust interface, which solidify and are later remelted during
repeated intrusion of basalt. As an end-member case, closed-system equilibrium crystallization of a basalt, followed by equilibrium
partial melting of the gabbro will produce a calc-alkaline evolved liquid (namely, high SiO2 and low FeOT/MgO) with a relative f
O
2 (corrected for the effect of changing temperature) that is similar to that of the initial basalt. Differentiation of the
Aurora magmas by repeated partial melting of previous underplates in the lower crust rather than by crystal fractionation
in large, stable magma chambers is consistent with the low eruption rate at the Aurora volcanic field.

Mount Cameroon volcano has erupted several times in the 20th Century with documented eruptions in 1909, 1922, 1954, 1959, 1982, 1999 and 2000. Evidence of historic volcanism is represented by several older lava flows and lahar deposits around the flanks of the volcano. This study aims to assess the evolution of Mount Cameroon volcanism through its eruptive history via interpretation of mineralogical, whole rock geochemical and Pb, Sr, Nd isotope data generated from historic and recent lava flows. In this study, samples were collected from the 1959, 1982, 1999 and 2000 eruptions and from several historic eruption sites with unknown eruption dates.Evaluation of major and trace element data demonstrates that Mount Cameroon is geotectonically associated with within-plate Ocean Island Basalt Settings. More than 90% of the studied historic lavas (n = 29) classify as tephrites and basanites whereas the modern lavas (n = 38) are predominantly trachybasalts, demonstrating evolution from primitive to evolved lavas over time typically in response to fractional crystallization. Petrographically, the lavas are porphyritic with main mineral phases being olivine, clinopyroxene, plagioclase feldspars and Fe–Ti–Cr oxides. The 1982 lavas are predominantly aphyric and dominated by lath-shaped flow-aligned plagioclase in the groundmass. Olivine chemistry shows variable forsterite compositions from Fo60–89. Clinopyroxenes vary from diopside through augite to titanaugite with chemical composition ranges from Wo45En32Fs7 to Wo51En47Fs17. Plagioclase feldspars vary from labradorite (An56–70) to bytownite (An80–87). For the Fe–Ti–Cr oxides, calculated ulvöspinel component shows a wide variation from ulv38–87. CIPW-normative classification on the Di-Ol-Hy-Qz-Ne system shows that all Mount Cameroon lavas are nepheline-normative (Ne ranges from 4.20 wt.% to 11.45 wt.%).Radiogenic isotope data demonstrate that Mount Cameroon lavas are HIMU (or high μ = 238U/204Pb), characterized by 206Pb/204Pb = 20.19–20.46, 207Pb/204Pb = 15.63–15.69, 208Pb/204Pb = 40.01–40.30, 87Sr/86Sr = 0.70322–0.70339 (εSr = −21.37 to −18.96) and 143Nd/144Nd = 0.51276–0.51285 (εNd = +2.29 to +4.05). The historic lavas show stronger HIMU signature relative to the modern lavas, suggesting evolution towards less HIMU signatures over time. This study has revealed that Mount Cameroon volcanism has evolved from primitive magmas characterized by stronger HIMU signatures with high 206/204Pb and 208/204Pb isotopes, low SiO2 and high Mg, Ni, Cr content towards lower HIMU signatures with relatively higher SiO2, lower Mg, Cr and Ni compositions. The geochemical and isotopic changes, which account for the evolution of magmatism on Mount Cameroon occur over long periods of time because all the modern lavas erupted within the last 100 years are isotopically homogeneous, with very limited variation in SiO2 compositions. 相似文献

The Tatara shield volcano and subsequent San Pedro cone arethe youngest edifices of the San Pedro-Pellado volcanic complexat 36S in the Chilean Andes. There are multiple basaltic andesitecompositional types present in the Tatara volcano, which couldresult from either contrasting source regions or interactionof primitive liquids with heterogeneous crust. The eruptivestratigraphy of the magma types implies concurrent, isolatedmagma chambers beneath Tatara-San Pedro. Open-system processesand multiple crustal endmembers were involved in calcalkalinedifferentiation series, whereas a tholeitiic series evolvedmainly by fractional crystallization. The glaciated Tatara shield comprises two cycles of compositionallydiverse basaltic andesite lavas, each of which is capped byvolumetrically minor andesite to dacite lavas. Four types (I-IV)of basaltic andesite are defined on the basis of chemical criteria,two in each cycle. The early cycle consists of calcalkalinetype I basaltic andesites, and tholeiitic type II basaltic andesitesand andesites; it culminated in the eruption of a dacite dome.The later cycle comprises intercalated calcalkaline type IIIand IV basaltic andesites, and they are overlain by San Pedroandesites and dacites which appear to be the differentiationproducts of type IV magmas. Tatara lavas were erupted from acommon vent situated beneath the modern San Pedro cone. Althoughthey overlap temporally and spatially, there is little evidenceof chemical interaction among the different lava types, indicatingthat there were two or more magma reservoirs beneath Tatara-SanPedro. Chemical differences among the basaltic andesite types precludederivation of any one from any of the others by fractional crystallization,assimilation-fractional crystallization (AFC), or magma mixing.The differences seem to reflect chemically different parentmagmas. The type I and IV parent liquids were relatively highin MgO, low in CaO and AI2O3, and had high incompatible andcompatible element abundances. The type II and III parents werelower in MgO, higher in A12O3 and CaO, and had lower compatibleand incompatible element abundances. Tholeiitic type II lavasappear to have evolved mainly by fractional crystallization,whereas there is evidence of open-system processes such as AFCand magma mixing in the evolution of the calcalkaline I, III,and IV suites. The chemical evolution of the type III and type IV-San Pedromagma suites has been simulated by assimilation and mixing modelsusing local granites and xenoliths as assimilants. The xenolithsprobably represent portions of a sub-caldera pluton associatedwith the Quebrada Turbia Tuff, which erupted from the Rio Coloradocaldera within the San Pedro-Pellado complex at 0–487Ma. Chemical and textural variations in type III lavas correlatewith stratigraphic position and appear to represent mixing betweena parental type III magma and remnant, evolved type I magmathat was progressively flushed from its chamber concurrent withmixing. The youngest San Pedro flow is chemically zoned fromdacite to basaltic andesite and may have formed by mixing withina conduit during eruption. 相似文献

Rates of magmatic processes in a cooling magma chamber wereinvestigated for alkali basalt and trachytic andesite lavaserupted sequentially from Rishiri Volcano, northern Japan, bydating of these lavas using 238U–230Th radioactive disequilibriumand 14C dating methods, in combination with theoretical analyses.We obtained the eruption age of the basaltic lavas to be 29·3± 0·6 ka by 14C dating of charcoals. The eruptionage of the andesitic lavas was estimated to be 20·2 ±3·1 ka, utilizing a whole-rock isochron formed by U–Thfractionation as a result of degassing after lava emplacement.Because these two lavas represent a series of magmas producedby assimilation and fractional crystallization in the same magmachamber, the difference of the ages (i.e. 9 kyr) is a timescaleof magmatic evolution. The thermal and chemical evolution ofthe Rishiri magma chamber was modeled using mass and energybalance constraints, as well as quantitative information obtainedfrom petrological and geochemical observations on the lavas.Using the timescale of 9 kyr, the thickness of the magma chamberis estimated to have been about 1·7 km. The model calculationsshow that, in the early stage of the evolution, the magma cooledat a relatively high rate (>0·1°C/year), and thecooling rate decreased with time. Convective heat flux fromthe main magma body exceeded 2 W/m2 when the magma was basaltic,and the intensity diminished exponentially with magmatic evolution.Volume flux of crustal materials to the magma chamber and rateof convective melt exchange (compositional convection) betweenthe main magma and mush melt also decreased with time, from 0·1 m/year to 10–3 m/year, and from 1 m/yearto 10–2 m/year, respectively, as the magmas evolved frombasaltic to andesitic compositions. Although the mechanism ofthe cooling (i.e. thermal convection and/or compositional convection)of the main magma could not be constrained uniquely by the model,it is suggested that compositional convection was not effectivein cooling the main magma, and the magma chamber is consideredto have been cooled by thermal convection, in addition to heatconduction.

Summary The Late Pleistocene Mt. Vulture strato-volcano developed at the intersection of NE-SW and NW-SE lithospheric fault systems,
on the easternmost border of the Apennine compressional front overthrust onto the Apulian foreland. The initial phase of the
volcanic activity is represented by pyroclastic deposits, including lava blocks, and subordinate eccentric domes, mostly phonolitic
in composition. The later stages of activity formed the bulk of the strato-volcano (pyroclastic products and subordinate lavas),
mostly tephritic in composition, with minor intercalations of basanite, mela-foidite and melilitite lavas and dikes.
Variations in rock and mineral composition suggest that the volumetrically predominant basanite-tephrite (foidite)-phonotephrite-phonolite
series can be accounted for by fractional crystallization processes starting from basanitic parental magmas, in agreement
with the remarkably constant 87Sr/86Sr isotopes (0.70586–0.70581). Mass-balance calculations indicate that the variably differentiated magmas may have been produced
by removal of wehrlite, clinopyroxenite and syenite cumulates, some of which are occasionally found as cognate xenoliths in
the volcanics. Fractionation processes probably developed in multiple-zoned magma chambers, at depths of 3–5 km, corresponding
to the tectonic discontinuity between the allochthonous Apennine formations and the underlying Apulian platform. Highly differentiated
phonolitic magmas capping the magma chambers and their conduits thus appear to have fed the initial volcanic activity, whereas
dominantly tephritic products were erupted in later stages.
The least evolved mafic magmas, namely basanites, mela-foidites and melilitites, are characterized by diverse Na/K ratios
and critical SiO2-undersaturation, which indicate their derivation as independent melts generated from distinct, heterogeneously enriched mantle
sources and by variable partial melting degrees.
Primitive mantle-normalized incompatible element patterns of Vulture mafic lavas invariably share analogies with both orogenic
subduction-related magmas (high Low Field Strength Elements/High Field Strength Elements ratios, K, Rb and Th contents and
marked Ti and Nb negative anomalies) and alkaline lavas from within-plate and rift settings (high Light Rare Earth Elements,
P, Zr, Nb and Na). These geochemical features may be accounted for by magma generation from deep lithospheric mantle sources,
enriched in Na-alkali silicate/carbonatite anorogenic components, subsequently affected by orogenic subduction-related K-metasomatism,
analogous to that which modified magma sources of the Roman Magmatic Province along the internal Apennine Chain.

Mount Etna is an open conduit volcano, characterised by persistent activity, consisting of degassing and explosive phenomena
at summit craters, frequent flank eruptions, and more rarely, eccentric eruptions. All eruption typologies can give rise to
lava flows, which represent the greatest hazard by the volcano to the inhabited areas. Historical documents and scientific
papers related to the 20th century effusive activity have been examined in detail, and volcanological parameters have been
compiled in a database. The cumulative curve of emitted lava volume highlights the presence of two main eruptive periods:
(a) the 1900–1971 interval, characterised by a moderate slope of the curve, amounting to 436 × 106 m3 of lava with average effusion rate of 0.2 m3/s and (b) the 1971–1999 period, in which a significant increase in eruption frequency is associated with a large issued lava
volume (767 × 106 m3) and a higher effusion rate (0.8 m3/s). The collected data have been plotted to highlight different eruptive behaviour as a function of eruptive periods and
summit vs. flank eruptions. The latter have been further subdivided into two categories: eruptions characterised by high effusion
rates and short duration, and eruptions dominated by low effusion rate, long duration and larger volume of erupted lava. Circular
zones around the summit area have been drawn for summit eruptions based on the maximum lava flow length; flank eruptions have
been considered by taking into account the eruptive fracture elevation and combining them with lava flow lengths of 4 and
6 km. This work highlights that the greatest lava flow hazard at Etna is on the south and east sectors of the volcano. This
should be properly considered in future land-use planning by local authorities. 相似文献

The post-caldera Kameni islands of the Santorini volcanic complex, Aegean Sea, Greece are entirely volcanic and were formed by eleven eruptions between 197 B.C. and 1950. Petrographic, mineral chemical and whole-rock major and trace element data are presented for samples of lava collected from the products of seven eruptive cycles which span the entire period of activity. The main phenocryst phases are plagioclase, clinopyroxene, orthopyroxene and titaniferous magnetite, which are weakly zoned (e.g. plagioclase — An55 to An42). The lavas are typical calc-alkaline dacites and show a restricted range of composition (from 64.1 to 68.4 wt. % SiO2). The phenocrysts were in equilibrium with the melts at temperatures of 960–1012 °C, pressures of 800–1500 bars and oxygen fugacities of 10–9.6-10–9.9 bars. The pre-eruptive water content of the magmas was 3–4 wt. % but since the lavas contain only 0.1–0.4 wt. % H2O, a considerable amount (about 0.01–0.015 km3) of water was lost prior to or during eruption. This indicates that the magmas rose to the surface gradually allowing the (largely) non-explosive loss of volatiles. The lavas were probably extruded initially from more or less cylindrical conduits which developed into fissures as the eruptions proceeded. The post-caldera lavas evolved from more mafic parental magmas (basalt-andesite) via fractional crystallization. The small range of compositional variation shown by these lavas can be explained in terms of near-equilibrium crystallization. Analyses of samples of lavas belonging to single eruption cycles and to individual flows indicate that the underlying magma chamber is compositionally zoned. The average composition of erupted magma has remained approximately constant since 1570 A.D. but that fact that the 197 B.C. magma was sligthly richer in SiO2 provides additional evidence that the magma chamber is compositionally zoned. Crystal settling has not affected the composition of the magma over a 2,200 year period of time which indicates that the melts do not behave as Newtonian fluids. Zonation was thus probably established prior to the 197 B.C. eruption though it is possible that it is developed and maintained by crystal-liquid differentiation processes other than crystal settling (e.g. boundary layer crystallization). The data indicate that there has been no significant cooling during 2,200 years; the maximum amount of cooling is <50 °C and is probably less than 30 °C. Two hypotheses are considered to explain the thermal and chemical buffering of the post-caldera magma chamber: (i) The magma chamber is large and heat losses due to conduction are largely compensated by latent heat supplied by thick, partially crystalline cumulate sequences. (ii) Periodic influx of hot mafic magma, which does not mix with the dacitic magma, inhibits cooling. The second alternative is favored because the post-caldera lavas differ geochemically from the pre-caldera lavas which signifies that a new batch of magma was formed and/or emplaced after the catastrophic eruption of 1390 B.C., and hence that mafic magmas may still be reaching upper crustal levels. 相似文献

The 1995 eruption of Fogo (Cape Verde Islands) differed from previous eruptions by the occurrence of evolved lavas, the SW-orientation
of vents, and pre-eruptive seismicity between Fogo and the adjacent (~20 km) island of Brava. We have conducted a thermobarometric
and chemical study of this eruption in order to reconstruct its magma plumbing system and to test for possible connections
to Brava. The bimodal eruption produced basanites (5.2–6.7 wt% MgO) and phonotephrites (2.4–2.8 wt% MgO) that are related
by fractional crystallization. Clinopyroxene-melt-barometry of phenocrysts yields pressure ranges of 460–680 MPa for the basanites
and 460–520 MPa for the phonotephrites. Microthermometry of CO2-dominated fluid inclusions in olivine and clinopyroxene phenocrysts yields systematically lower pressure ranges of 200–310 MPa
for basanites and 270–470 MPa for phonotephrites. The combined data indicate pre-eruptive storage of the 1995 magmas within
the lithospheric mantle between 16 and 24 km depth. During eruption, the ascending magmas stalled temporarily at 8–11 km depth,
within the lower crust, before they ascended to the surface in a few hours as indicated by zonations of olivine phenocrysts.
Our data provide no evidence for magma storage at shallow levels (<200 MPa) or lateral magma movements beneath the Fogo-Brava
platform. Sr–Nd–Pb isotope ratios of samples from Brava differ significantly from those of the 1995 and older Fogo lavas,
which rules out contamination of the 1995 magmas by Brava material and indicates different mantle sources and magma plumbing
systems for both islands. 相似文献

Segregation veins are common in lava sheets and result from internal differentiation during lava emplacement and degassing.
They consist of evolved liquid, most likely replaced by gas-filter pressing from a ∼50% crystallised host lava. Pairs of samples,
host lavas and associated segregation veins from the Reykjanes Peninsula (Iceland), Lanzarote (Canary Islands) and the Masaya
volcano (Nicaragua) show extreme mineralogical and compositional variations (MgO in host lava, segregation veins and interstitial
glass ranges from 8–10 wt%, 3–6 wt%, and to less than 0.01 wt%, respectively). These samples allow the assessment of the internal
lava flow differentiation mechanism, since both the parental and derived liquid are known in addition to the last magma drops
in the form of late interstitial glasses. The mineralogical variation, mass-balance calculated from major- and trace element
composition, and transitional metal partition between crystals and melts are all consistent with fractional crystallisation
as the dominant differentiation mechanism. The interstitial glasses are highly silicic (SiO2 = 70–80 wt%) and represent a final product of high-degree (75–97%) fractional crystallisation of olivine tholeiite at a pressure
close to one atmosphere. The tholeiitic liquid-line-of-decent and the composition of the residual melts are governed by the
K2O/Na2O of the initial basaltic magma. The granitic minimum is reached if the initial liquid has a high K2O/Na2O whereas trondhjemitic composition is the final product of magma with low initial K2O/Na2O.

A diverse assemblage of small mafic and ultramafic xenolithsoccurs in alkalic lava from Davidson and Pioneer seamounts locatedat the continental margin of central California. Based on mineralcompositions and textures, they form three groups: (1) mantlexenoliths of lherzolite, pyroxenite, and dunite with olivineof >Fo90; (2) ocean crust xenoliths of dunite with olivine<Fo90, troctolite, pyroxene-gabbro, and anorthosite withlow-K2O plagioclase; (3) cumulates of seamount magmas of alkalicgabbro with primary amphibole and biotite and anorthosites withhigh-K2O plagioclase. The alkalic cumulates are geneticallyrelated to, but more evolved than, their host lavas and probablycrystallized at the margins of magma reservoirs. Modeling andcomparison with experimentally derived phases suggest an originat moderate pressures (0·5–0·9 GPa). Thehigh volatile contents of the alkalic host lavas may have pressurizedthe magma chambers and helped to propel the xenolith-bearinglavas directly from deep storage at the base of the lithosphereto the eruption site on the ocean floor, entraining fragmentsof the upper mantle and ocean crust cumulates from the underlyingabandoned spreading center.

Between 1953 and 1974, approximately 0.5 km3 of andesite and dacite erupted from a new vent on the southwest flank of Trident volcano in Katmai National Park, Alaska,
forming an edifice now known as Southwest (or New) Trident. Field, analytical, and experimental evidence shows that the eruption
commenced soon after mixing of dacite and andesite magmas at shallow crustal levels. Four lava flows (58.3–65.5 wt% SiO2) are the dominant products of the eruption; these contain discrete andesitic enclaves (55.8–58.9 wt% SiO2) as well as micro- and macro-scale compositional banding. Tephra from the eruption spans the same compositional range as
lava flows; however, andesite scoria (56–58.1 wt% SiO2) is more abundant relative to dacite tephra, and is the explosively erupted counterpart to andesite enclaves. Fe–Ti oxide
pairs from andesite scoria show a limited temperature range, clustered around 1000 °C. Temperatures from grains found in dacite
lavas possess a wider range; however, cores from large (>100 μm) magnetite and coexisting ilmenite give temperatures of ∼890 °C,
taken to represent a pre-mixing temperature for the dacite. Water contents from dacite phenocryst melt inclusions and phase
equilibria experiments on the andesite imply that the two magmas last resided at a water pressure of 90 MPa, and contained
∼3.5 wt% H2O, equivalent to 3 km depth if saturated. Unzoned pyroxene and sodic plagioclase in the dacite suggest that it likely underwent
significant crystallization at this depth; highly resorbed anorthitic plagioclase from the andesite suggests that it originated
at greater depths and underwent relatively rapid ascent until it reached 3 km, mixed with dacite, and erupted. Diffusion profiles
in phenocrysts suggest that mixing preceded eruption of earliest lava by approximately one month. The lack of a compositional
gap in the erupted rock suite indicates that thorough mixing of the andesite and dacite occurred quickly, via disaggregation
of enclaves, phenocryst transfer from one magma to another, and direct mixing of compositionally distinct melt phases.

The Alligator Lake complex is a Quaternary alkaline volcanic center located in the southern Yukon Territory of Canada. It comprises two cinder cones which cap a shield consisting of five distinct lava units of basaltic composition. Units 2 and 3 of this shield are primitive olivine-phyric lavas (13.5–19.5 cation % Mg) which host abundant spinel lherzolite xenoliths, megacrysts, and granitoid fragments. Although the two lava types have erupted coevally from adjacent vents and are petrographically similar, they are chemically distinct. Unit 2 lavas have considerably higher abundances of LREE, LILE, and Fe, but lower HREE, Y, Ca, Si, and Al relative to unit 3 lavas. The 87Sr/86Sr and 143Nd/144Nd isotopic ratios of these two units are, however, indistinguishable. The differences between these two lava types cannot be explained in terms of low pressure olivine fractionation, and the low concentrations of Sr, Nb, P, and Ti in the granitoid xenoliths relative to the primitive lavas discounts differential crustal contamination. The abundance of spinel lherzolite xenoliths and the high Mg contents in the lavas of both units indicates that their compositional differences originated in the upper mantle. The Al and Si systematics of these lavas suggests that, compared to unit 3 magmas, the unit 2 magmas may have segregated at greater depths from a garnet lherzolite mantle. The identical isotopic composition and similar ratios of highly incompatible elements in these two lava units argues against their differences being a consequence of random metasomatism or mantle heterogeneity. The lower Y and HREE contents but higher concentrations of incompatible elements in the unit 2 lavas relative to unit 3 can be most simply explained by differential partial melting of similar garnet-bearing sources. The unit 2 magmas thus appear to have been generated by smaller degrees of melting at a greater depth than the unit 3 magmas. The contemporaneous eruption of two distinct but volumetrically restricted primary magmas from adjacent vents at the Alligator Lake volcanic complex suggests that volcanism in this region of the Canadian Cordillera is controlled by localized, small batch processes. 相似文献

Nearly contemporaneous eruption of alkaline and calc-alkaline lavas occurred about 900 years BP from El Volcancillo paired vent, located behind the volcanic front in the Mexican Volcanic Belt (MVB). Emission of hawaiite (Toxtlacuaya) was immediately followed by calc-alkaline basalt (Río Naolinco). Hawaiites contain olivine microphenocrysts (Fo67–72), plagioclase (An56–60) phenocrysts, have 4–5 wt% MgO and 49.6–50.9 wt% SiO2. In contrast, calc-alkaline lavas contain plagioclase (An64–72) and olivine phenocrysts (Fo81–84) with spinel inclusions, and have 8–9 wt% MgO and 48.4–49.4 wt% SiO2. The most primitive lavas in the region (Río Naolinco and Cerro Colorado) are not as primitive as parental melts in other arcs, and could represent either (a) variable degrees of melting of a subduction modified, garnet-bearing depleted mantle source, followed by AFC process, or (b) melting of two distinct mantle sources followed by AFC processes. These two hypotheses are evaluated using REE, HFSE, and Sr, Os and Pb isotopic data. The Toxtlacuaya flow and the Y & I lavas can be generated by combined fractional crystallization and assimilation of gabbroic granulite, starting with a parental liquid similar to the Cerro Colorado basalt. Although calc-alkaline and alkaline magmas commonly occur together in other areas of the MVB, evidence for subduction component in El Volcancillo magmas is minimal and limited to <1%, which is a unique feature in this region further from the trench. El Volcancillo lavas were produced from two different magma batches: we surmise that the injection of calc-alkaline magma into an alkaline magma chamber triggered the eruption of hawaiites. Our results suggest that the subalkaline and hawaiitic lavas were formed by different degrees of partial melting of a similar, largely depleted mantle source, followed by later AFC processes. This model is unusual for arcs, where such diversity is usually explained by melting of heterogeneous (enriched and depleted) and subduction-modified mantle. 相似文献

Generation of Deccan Trap magmas 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Gautam Sen 《Journal of Earth System Science》2001,110(4):409-431
Deccan Trap magmas may have erupted through multiple centers, the most prominent of which may have been a shield volcano-like
structure in the Western Ghats area. The lavas are predominantly tholeiitic; alkalic mafic lavas and carbonatites are rare.
Radioisotope dating, magnetic chronology, and age constraints from paleontology indicate that although the eruption started
some 68 Ma, the bulk of lavas erupted at around 65–66 Ma. Paleomagnetic constraints indicate an uncertainty of ± 500,000 years
for peak volcanic activity at 65 m.y. in the type section of the Western Ghats. Maximum magma residence times were calculated
in this study based on growth rates of “giant plagioclase” crystals in lavas that marked the end phase of volcanic activity
of different magma chambers. These calculations suggest that the > 1.7 km thick Western Ghats section might have erupted within
a much shorter time interval of ∼ 55,000 years, implying phenomenal eruption rates that are orders of magnitude larger than
any present-day eruption rate from any tectonic environment. Other significant observations/conclusions are as follows: (1)
Deccan lavas can be grouped into stratigraphic subdivisions based on their geochemistry; (2) While some formations are relatively
uncontaminated others are strongly contaminated by the continental crust; (3) Deccan magmas were produced by 15–30% melting
of a Fe-rich lherzolitic source at ∼ 3–2 GPa; (4) Parent magmas of the relatively uncontaminated Ambenali formation had a
primitive composition with 16%MgO, 47%SiO2; (5) Deccan magmas were generated much deeper and by significantly more melting than other continental flood basalt provinces;
(6) The erupted Deccan tholeiitic lavas underwent fractionation and magma mixing at ∼ 0.2 GPa. The composition and origin
of the crust and crust/mantle boundary beneath the Deccan are discussed with respect to the influence of Deccan magmatic episode. 相似文献

The postshield and posterosional stages of Haleakala Volcano contain intercalated alkalic basalt and evolved alkalic lavas. Isotopic and incompatible element abundance ratios in the Haleakala postshield basalts changed systematically with time, providing evidence for significant temporal changes in the mantle components contributing to the magmatic sources. Specifically, a depleted, i.e. low87Sr/86Sr and high143Nd/144Nd, mantle component is more abundant in younger lavas. However, as magma-production rates decreased during the postshield and posterosional stages, basaltic melts in magma reservoirs cooled and fractionated, leading to evolved residual melts such as hawaiite. Because primary basalt compositions changed with time, the evolved Haleakala lavas formed from a range of parental compositions. However, basalts and evolved lavas of similar age and isotopic ratios (Sr and Nd) have major and trace element contents that are consistent with a crystal-fractionation model. Although alkalic basalt and hawaiite are the dominant lavas of the postshield stages of both Haleakala and Mauna Kea volcanoes, there are important differences between their lavas. For example, compositional differences between the hawaiite suites at Haleakala and Mauna Kea indicate that, on average, the evolved lavas at Haleakala formed at lower pressures. Also, at Haleakala basalts are intercalated with hawaiites, whereas at Mauna Kea basalts and hawaiites are separated by a sharp boundary. These differences probably reflect a higher magma supply rate to the Haleakala volcano. 相似文献

Enrichment of basalt and mixing of dacite in the rootzone of a large rhyolite chamber: inclusions and pumices from the Rattlesnake Tuff, Oregon 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3
A variety of cognate basalt to basaltic andesite inclusions and dacite pumices occur in the 7-Ma Rattlesnake Tuff of eastern
Oregon. The tuff represents ∼280 km3 of high-silica rhyolite magma zoned from highly differentiated rhyolite near the roof to less evolved rhyolite at deeper
levels. The mafic inclusions provide a window into the processes acting beneath a large silicic chamber. Quenched basaltic
andesite inclusions are substantially enriched in incompatible trace elements compared to regional primitive high-alumina
olivine tholeiite (HAOT) lavas, but continuous chemical and mineralogical trends indicate a genetic relationship between them.
Basaltic andesite evolved from primitive basalt mainly through protracted crystal fractionation and multiple cycles (≥10)
of mafic recharge, which enriched incompatible elements while maintaining a mafic bulk composition. The crystal fractionation
history is partially preserved in the mineralogy of crystal-rich inclusions (olivine, plagioclase ± clinopyroxene) and the
recharge history is supported by the presence of mafic inclusions containing olivines of Fo80. Small amounts of assimilation (∼2%) of high-silica rhyolite magma improves the calculated fit between observed and modeled
enrichments in basaltic andesite and reduces the number of fractionation and recharge cycles needed. The composition of dacite
pumices is consistent with mixing of equal proportions of basaltic andesite and least-evolved, high-silica rhyolite. In support
of the mixing model, most dacite pumices have a bimodal mineral assemblage with crystals of rhyolitic and basaltic parentage.
Equilibrium dacite phenocrysts are rare. Dacites are mainly the product of mingling of basaltic andesite and rhyolite before
or during eruption and to a lesser extent of equilibration between the two. The Rattlesnake magma column illustrates the feedback
between mafic and silicic magmas that drives differentiation in both. Low-density rhyolite traps basalts and induces extensive
fractionation and recharge that causes incompatible element enrichment relative to the primitive input. The basaltic root
zone, in turn, thermally maintains the rhyolitic magma chamber and promotes compositional zonation.

The Petrology of the Lower Old Red Sandstone Lavas of the Eastern Sidlaw Hills, Perthshire, Scotland
The calc-alkaline lava sequence of the eastern Sidlaw Hillsforms a small part of an extensive volcanic province of LowerOld Red Sandstone (Devonian) age in Scotland and N. England.The Sidlaw lavas ranging from olivine basalt to dacite are allporphyritic with combinations of olivine, plagioclase, clinopyroxene,orthopyroxene, and opaque oxide pheno-crysts. Chemically, thelavas are slightly more alkalic than modern calc-alkaline lavas.There is considerable variation in the ‘incompatible elements’.The differentiation of the lavas can be accounted for by fractionationof olivine+plagioclase+minor ore from a chemically variable,immediately parental magma at low pressure (c. 1 kb PH2O). Itis suggested that fractionation of variable amounts of olivineand clinopyroxene from an olivine tholeiite at moderate PH2Ocould give rise to this chemically variable, high alumina, immediatelyparental magma. 相似文献

Three contemporaneous yet mineralogically and chemically distinct lava series which range in composition from olivine basalt through basaltic andesite through two-pyroxene andesite, have been analyzed for their strontium isotopic composition. The Mammoth-Modoc lavas produce a mantle isochron which suggests derivation from a source approximately 243 m.y. old. The Medicine Lake shield-forming extrusives produce a minimum mantle isochron; the age of this source is likely greater than 760 m.y. old. Encompassing the entire time span of eruption for the two basalt-andesite series are a number of low potassium high alumina olivine tholeiite lavas which, when analyzed as a coherent group, produce a zero age. Lavas related to these three magma series have been extruded during the last 105 years and cover a limited geographic area. The isotope data suggest a model with substantial heterogeneity in the subcontinental lithosphere and asthenosphere, at least beneath the Medicine Lake Highland portion of the southern Cascade petrographic province.Contribution No. 126 相似文献
