An experimental study of pyroxene crystallization during rapid cooling in a thermal gradient: application to komatiites
To investigate the crystallization of pyroxene in spinifex-textured komatiites, we undertook a series of experiments in which compositions in the CaO-MgO-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-SiO<sub>2</sub> CMAS system were cooled rapidly in a thermal gradient. Cooling rat...
