Plate tectonic processes introduce basaltic crust (as eclogite) into the peridotitic mantle. The proportions of these two sources in mantle melts are poorly understood. Silica-rich formed from eclogite react with peridotite, converting it to olivine-free pyroxenite. Partial this hybrid pyroxenite higher nickel and silicon but poorer manganese, calcium, magnesium than peridotite. Olivine phenocrysts' compositions record differences were used quantify contributions pyroxenite-derived mid-ocean...

New geochronological and geochemical data on magmatic activity from the India-Asia collision zone enables recognition of a distinct flare-up event that we ascribe to slab breakoff. This tie-point in collisional record can be used back-date time initial impingement Indian continent with Asian margin. Continental arc magmatism southern Tibet during 80-40 Ma migrated south north then back significant mantle input at 70-43 Ma. A pronounced flare up intensity (including ignimbrite mafic rock) ca....
The Okinawa Trough is an incipient intracontinental back arc basin that has developed behind the Ryukyu arc‐trench system. To explore its magmatic evolution and nature of mantle source, we present major trace element Sr‐Nd isotopic data for mafic volcanic rocks from Middle Southern Central Arc. Two episodes activity formed latter: older (∼21–13 Ma) younger (∼6–4 Ma). Although Quaternary basalts (MOT) have compositions comparable to intra‐oceanic basins, they are characterized by relative...
