Geochemistry of heard Island (Southern Indian Ocean): Characterization of an enriched mantle component and implications for enrichment of the sub-Indian ocean mantle
Lavas from Heard Island, located on the Kerguelen Plateau in the southern Indian Ocean, exhibit the largest range (e.g., 87Sr/86Sr=0.7047-0.7079) of isotopic compositions yet observed on a single oceanic island. Isotopic compositions are well correlated and are accompanied by systematic changes in i...
