Reaction between basaltic melt and orthopyroxene at 3.0–4.5 ​GPa: Implications for the evolution of ocean island basalts in the mantle

Reaction between basaltic melt and orthopyroxene at 3.0–4.5 ​GPa: Implications for the evolution of ocean island basalts in the mantle

Interactions between basaltic melt and orthopyroxenite (Opx) were investigated to gain a better understanding of the consequences of the residence and transport of ocean island basalts (OIBs) within the mantle. The experiments were conducted using a DS-3600 six-anvil apparatus at 3.0–4.5 ​GPa and 13...
