Petrologic evolution under mid-ocean ridges (MORs) has long been a major means to study the complex structure of the oceanic crust. Gakkel Ridge, the Arctic mid-ocean ridge, is especially interesting with its unique “ultraslow” spreading rate. Geochemical studies of Gakkel Ridge basalts and peridoti...
