Using minerals chemistry of plagioclase for the study of magma crystallization process in Ravanj intrusive (NE Delijan)
The Ravanj intrusive, with tonalite, quartz-diorite, and microquartz-diorite composition, is exposed in the West of Ravang Village, NE Delijan, in Urmia-Dokhtar zone. Plagioclase is observed in three different sizes (coarse, intermediate, and microcrystalline) in the composition of in Ravanj intrusive. Most of the coarse crystals are zoned while intermediate and microcrystalline show polysynthe...
متن کاملRole of syn-eruptive plagioclase disequilibrium crystallization in basaltic magma ascent dynamics
Timescales of magma ascent in conduit models are typically assumed to be much longer than crystallization and gas exsolution for basaltic eruptions. However, it is now recognized that basaltic magmas may rise fast enough for disequilibrium processes to play a key role on the ascent dynamics. The quantification of the characteristic times for crystallization and exsolution processes are fundamen...
متن کاملMagma degassing during the Plinian eruption of Novarupta, Alaska, 1912
[1] We have modeled the nucleation and isothermal growth of bubbles in dacite from the 1912 Plinian eruption of Novarupta, Alaska. Bubble growth calculations account for the exsolution of H2O and CO2, beginning with bubble nucleation and ending when bubble sizes reproduced the observed size distribution of vesicles in Novarupta pumice clasts. Assuming classical nucleation theory, bubbles nuclea...
متن کاملMagma evolution revealed by anorthite-rich plagioclase cumulate xenoliths from the Ontong Java Plateau: Insights into LIP magma dynamics and melt evolution
Petrologic studies of igneous rocks often rely on whole-rock analyses alone to deduce source and melting histories. Whole-rock compositions represent a mixture of the processes responsible for the final texture and composition of the rock, but do not emphasize the evolutionary processes that the rock may have experienced. We examine the major, minor, and trace element compositions of plagioclas...
متن کاملInfluence of non-Newtonian rheology on magma degassing
Many volcanoes exhibit temporal changes in their degassing process, from rapid gas puffing to lava fountaining and long-lasting quiescent passive degassing periods. This range of behaviors has been explained in terms of changes in gas flux and/or magma input rate. We report here a simple laboratory experiment which shows that the nonNewtonian rheology of magma can be responsible, alone, for suc...
