The scale and origin of the osmium isotope variations in mid-ocean ridge basalts
The decay of <sup>187</sup>Re to <sup>187</sup>Os provides a unique tracer of recycled lithosphere in the Earth's upper mantle, and the radiogenic Os isotope compositions of many mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB) have been taken to indicate the presence of recycled oceanic...
