Noble gas concentrations and isotopic compositions have been measured in eight samples of pillow basalt glasses collected from seven different localities along 250 km of the Mariana Trough spreading and rifting axis. The samples have uniform and mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB)-like He/He values of 9±12 ́ 10 (6.4±8.6 times atmospheric) despite large variations in He. Concentrations of the noble ga...

the upper cretaceous ganj complex, a part of the jazmurian ophiolitic belt, is located on the western boundary of jazmurian depression and separated from kahnuj ophiolitic complex by north-south trending jiroft fault. the complex consists of lava flows, pillow lavas, acidic plutonic and sedimentary rocks which are intruded by northwest-southeast trending dykes. it does not resemble a classical ...

Secondary minerals occur within the tholeiitic basalts of Salsette Island in greater Mumbai region, as well other localities Deccan Volcanic Province (DVP). However, secondary show remarkable differences with respect to their mineral speciation and precipitation sequence, which are both due unique geological environment. The region is built up by subgroup, represents youngest sequence DVP. It f...

Depth profiling and atomic intensity correlation studies on mineralogical inclusion embedded in calcium carbonate phase using a miniature laser mass spectrometer are presented. The method allows the determination of complex phases.
