Calculation of Peridotite Partial Melting from Thermodynamic Models of Minerals and Melts. I. Review of Methods and Comparison with Experiments
Thermodynamic calculation of partial melting of peridotite using of the results of calculations of peridotite melting using MELTS, there are a number of shortcomings to application of this thermothe MELTS algorithm has the potential to aid understanding of a wide range of problems related to mantle melting. We review the dynamic model to calculations of mantle melting. In particular, calculated...
متن کاملNear-solidus Melting of the Shallow Upper Mantle: Partial Melting Experiments on Depleted Peridotite
We present the results of melting experiments on a moderately depleted peridotite composition (DMM1) at 10 kbar and 1250±1390 C. Specially designed experiments demonstrate that liquids extracted into aggregates of vitreous carbon spheres maintained chemical contact with the bulk charge down to melt fractions of 0 02±0 04 and approached equilibrium closely. With increasing melt fraction, SiO2, F...
متن کاملMelting of peridotite to 140 gigapascals.
Interrogating physical processes that occur within the lowermost mantle is a key to understanding Earth's evolution and present-day inner composition. Among such processes, partial melting has been proposed to explain mantle regions with ultralow seismic velocities near the core-mantle boundary, but experimental validation at the appropriate temperature and pressure regimes remains challenging....
متن کاملMineral / melt partitioning of trace elements during hydrous peridotite partial melting
This experimental study examines the mineral/ melt partitioning of incompatible trace elements among high-Ca clinopyroxene, garnet, and hydrous silicate melt at upper mantle pressure and temperature conditions. Experiments were performed at pressures of 1.2 and 1.6 GPa and temperatures of 1,185 to 1,370 C. Experimentally produced silicate melts contain up to 6.3 wt% dissolved H2O, and are satur...
متن کاملMetasomatism and Partial Melting in Upper-Mantle Peridotite Xenoliths from the Lashaine Volcano, Northern Tanzania
REE (LREE) into the glass with respect to clinopyroxene, but the A group of chrome-spinel peridotite upper-mantle xenoliths from the reverse for Sr and Y, in both mica-bearing and mica-free parageneses. Lashaine volcano, northern Tanzania, differs from other xenoliths In a mica-bearing melt pocket, Rb and Ba partition preferentially at this locality in containing glassy melt pockets. Modal, min...
