Redox Systematics of Martian Magmas with Implications for Magnetite Stability
Introduction: Iron redox systematics of the high FeO shergottitic liquids are poorly known, yet have a fundamental control on stability of phases such as magnetite, ilmenite, and pyroxenes [1]. Experiments: We undertook experiments to constrain the Fe 3+ /Fe(tot) in high FeO glasses as a function of fO2, melt P2O5, temperature and pressure. We also performed a series of sub-liquidus experiment ...
متن کاملExperimental Petrology of the Basaltic Shergottite Yamato 980459: Implications for the Thermal Structure of the Martian Mantle
Introduction: Yamato 980459 (Y98) is an olivine-phyric basaltic shergottite [1] composed of 48% pyroxene, 26% olivine, 25% mesostasis, and 1% other minerals. Unlike the other Martian basalts, it contains no plagioclase. Olivine in Y98 is the most magnesian of all Martian meteorites. Thus Y98 is believed to be the most primitive [2] and its composition may be the closest to a primary or direct m...
متن کاملRedox variations in Mauna Kea lavas, the oxygen fugacity of the Hawaiian plume, and the role of volcanic gases in Earth's oxygenation.
The behavior of C, H, and S in the solid Earth depends on their oxidation states, which are related to oxygen fugacity (fO2). Volcanic degassing is a source of these elements to Earth's surface; therefore, variations in mantle fO2 may influence the fO2 at Earth's surface. However, degassing can impact magmatic fO2 before or during eruption, potentially obscuring relationships between the fO2 of...

The plutonic body of Bostanabad-Meyaneh belt formed during the Cenozoic magmatism on the weast Alborz-Azarbaijan zone. The Oligocene plutonic rocks consist of alkaligranite, granodiorite and biotitegranite, intruded into the Eocene volcanic-sedimentary rocks. The predominant textures are granular, graphic and perthite. Geochemical evidence reveals that they are cogenetic and have features typic...
متن کاملOxygen Fugacity of the Martian Mantle from Pyroxene/melt Partitoning of Ree
Introduction: This study is part of an ongoing effort [1-3] to calibrate the pyroxene/melt REE oxybarometer for conditions relevant to the martian meteorites. Redox variations have been reported among the shergottites [4-6]. Wadhwa [4] used the Eu and Gd augite/melt partitioning experiments of [7], designed for the LEW86010 angrite, to infer a range of fo2 for the shergottites. [5,6] inferred f...
