Experimentally dictated stability of carbonated oceanic crust to moderately great depths in the Earth: Results from the solidus determination in the system CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2-CO2
Solidus melting phase relations are reported for carbonated eclogite in the system CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2-CO2 at 12 to 25 GPa. From 12 to 16 GPa, melts are in equilibrium with clinopyroxene, stishovite, garnet, aragonite, and magnesite. At 20 and 25 GPa, melts are in equilibrium with garnet, stishovite,...
