The extent of U-series disequilibria produced during partial melting of the lower crust with implications for the formation of the Mount St. Helens dacites
The extent to which U-series disequilibria can be produced during partial melting of mafic lower crust is quantified using a simple batch melting model and both experimental and theoretical partition coefficients for U, Th and Ra. We show that partial melting of mafic lower crust can only produce sm...
