Numerical simulation of plagioclase rim growth during magma ascent at Bezymianny Volcano, Kamchatka

Slow CaAl-NaSi interdiffusion in plagioclase crystals preserves chemical zoning of plagioclase in detail, which, along with strong dependence of anorthite content in plagioclase on melt composition, pressure, and temperature, make this mineral an important source of information on magma processes. A...
