However, applying resulting methodologies ophiolite complexes is not straightforward because ophiolites typically experience intense alteration during their passage subduction zone mountain belt. Instead, immobile element proxies fractionation indices, alkalinity, mantle temperature, flow addition may be used classify lavas fingerprint precise setting at which an formed. The results can help us recognise interpret past spreading centres so make plate tectonic reconstructions.
