Oxidation state of Cu in silicate melts at upper mantle conditions
Abstract Beyond its economic value, copper (Cu) serves as a valuable tracer of deep magmatic processes due to its close relationship with magmatic sulfide evolution and sensitivity to oxygen fugacity (fO2). However, determining Cu’s oxidation state (+ 1 or + 2) in silicate melts, crucial for interpr...
