Abstract: We report on the concentrations of platinum group elements (PGE), Re, Ag and Cd in 53 tholeiitic basalts and one picrite from the Reykjanes Ridge and its extension over Iceland. The purpose is to investigate sulfide bearing PGE mantle source heterogeneities and partial melting effects. Inc...
