Thermal Evolution of the Lithosphere in a Rift Environment as Inferred from the Geochemistry of Mantle Cumulates, Northern Victoria Land, Antarctica
Among the abundant mantle xenoliths carried by the Cenozoic alkaline basalts of northern Victoria Land, Antarctica, we have studied a suite of clinopyroxene-rich cumulates collected at Browning Pass (Mt. Melbourne Volcanic Province), ranging in composition from wehrlites to clinopyroxenites. Clinopy...
