Pliocene volcanic activity of the Harrat Ash-Sham, South of Syria: geochemistry and petrogenesis
The Cenozoic volcanic activity of the Harrat Ash Sham volcanic field in south of Syria is a part of the extensive magmatism that took place in the auxiliary extension faults along the Dead Sea Fault Zone from upper Eocene to Holocene. Pliocene volcanic rocks form an important part of igneous succession in Syrian Part of Harrat as Sham. These rocks vary from basalts flows to scoria. Pliocene bas...
متن کاملPetrology and Geochemistry of 3.3 Ga Komatiites– Weltevreden Formation, Barberton Greenstone Belt
Introduction: Komatiites provide several ways of assessing the chemical and thermal evolution of the mantle. Komatiitic liquids are produced from very high degrees of partial melting of the deep mantle, and erupted as extremely fluid lavas. Komatiites are important in the study of the early Earth because they are a significant constituent of the Archean crust. It has been proposed that komatiit...
متن کاملPetrography, geochemistry and petrogenesis of Damavand volcano: Comparison of different volcanic generations
1-Introduction Damavand volcano was formed by explosive and non-explosive eruptions on the old eroded rock units (Mesozoic and older) of Central Alborz during the Quaternary period and formed two huge cone (Old and Young Damavand). Davidson et al. (2004) determined the time of Old-Damavand activity from 1800 to 800 thousand years ago by measuring Ar/Ar and U-Th/He methods. According to their ...
متن کاملGeochemistry of Lavas from Mauritius, Indian Ocean: Mantle Sources and Petrogenesis
Trace-element and Nd-Sr-Pb isotopic data for mafic lavas from the Mascarene island of Mauritius reveal that the shield-stage Older Series (with 143Nd/144Nd = 0.512827 to 0.512853, 87Sr/86Sr = 0.70412 to 0.70433, and 206Pb/204Pb = 18.771 to 19.024) is geochemically very similar to the shield-building lavas of the younger island of Réunion. The post-shield Intermediate and Younger Series lavas of...
