Chemical Diversity in Mid-Ocean Ridge Basalts - A geochemical excursion to the ultraslow - spreading Gakkel Ridge, Arctic Ocean
At divergent tectonic plate boundaries magma, produced in the Earth’s upper mantle, rises towards the crust, where it crystallises to a solid rock – also called a ‘basalt’. These rocks carry information about the geological history and composition of their source, allowing to gain knowledge of the E...
