Compositional effects on element partitioning between Mg-silicate perovskite and silicate melts
High-pressure melting experiments were performed at ∼26 GPa and ∼2,200-2,400° C on synthetic peridotite compositions with varying FeO and Al2O3 contents and on a synthetic CI chondrite analogue composition. Peridotite liquids show a crystallisation sequence of ferropericlase (Fp) followed down tempe...
