Europium in plagioclase-hosted melt inclusions reveals mantle melting modulates oxygen fugacity

Abstract To gain insights into the composition and heterogeneity of Earth’s interior, the partial pressure of oxygen (oxygen fugacity, or fO2) in igneous rocks is characterized. A surprising observation is that relative to reference buffers, fO2s of mantle melts (mid-ocean ridge basalts, or MORBs) a...
