In situ Os isotopes in abyssal peridotites bridge the isotopic gap between MORBs and their source mantle.
Abyssal peridotites are assumed to represent the mantle residue of mid-ocean-ridge basalts (MORBs). However, the osmium isotopic compositions of abyssal peridotites and MORB do not appear to be in equilibrium, raising questions about the cogenetic relationship between those two reservoirs. However,...
