An integrated P-T-H2O-lattice strain model to quantify the role of clinopyroxene fractionation on REE+Y/HFSE patterns of mafic alkaline magmas: Application to eruptions at Mt. Etna

Silvio Mollo, Jonathan Blundy, Piergiorgio Scarlato +6

A correct description and quantification of the geochemical behaviour of REE+Y (rare earth elements and Y) and HFSE (high field strength elements) is a key requirement for modellin…

Diffusive exchange of trace elements between alkaline melts: implications for element fractionation and timescale estimations during magma mixing

Diego González-García, Maurizio Petrelli, Harald Behrens +4

The diffusive exchange of 30 trace elements during the interaction of natural mafic and silicic alkaline melts was experimentally studied at conditions relevant to shallow magmatic…

Glass stability (GS) of chemically complex (natural) sub-alkaline glasses

G. Iezzi, A. L. Elbrecht, M. Davis +4

Glass stability (GS) indicates the glass reluctance or ability to crystallise upon heating; it can be characterised by several methods and parameters and is frequently used to retr…

Effects of CO2 flushing on crystal textures and compositions: experimental evidence from recent K trachybasalts erupted at Mt. Etna

Marisa Giuffrida, Francois Holtz, Francesco Vetere +1

Changes in magmatic assemblages and crystal stability as a response of CO2 flushing in basaltic systems have been never directly addressed experimentally, making the role of CO2 in…

Experimental constraints on the rheology, eruption and emplacement dynamics of analog lavas comparable to Mercury's northern volcanic plains

Francesco Vetere, Stefano Rossi, Olivier Namur +6

We present new viscosity measurements of a synthetic silicate system considered an analogue for the lava erupted on the surface of Mercury. In particular, we focus on the northern…

Exponential Decay Of Concentration Variance During Magma Mixing: Robustness Of A Volcanic Chronometer And Implications For The Homogenization Of Chemical Heterogeneities In Magmatic Systems

Stefano Rossi, Maurizio Petrelli, Daniele Morgavi +4

The mixing of magmas is a fundamental process in the Earth system causing extreme compositional variations in igneous rocks. This process can develop with different intensities bot…

Water-enhanced interdiffusion of major elements between natural shoshonite and high-K rhyolite melts

Diego González-García, Harald Behrens, Maurizio Petrelli +4

The interdiffusion of six major elements (Si, Ti, Fe, Mg, Ca, K) between natural shoshonite and a high-K calc-alkaline rhyolite (Vulcano island, Aeolian archipelago, Italy) has bee…

Non-linear deformation and break up of enclaves in a rhyolitic magma: a case study from Lipari Island (Southern Italy)

Francois Holtz, Sascha Lenne, Guido Ventura +2

A dome from Lipari Island (Southern Italy) consists of 12 vol. percent of circular, elongated and folded latitic enclaves hosted in a rhyolitic matrix. The dm- to cm-scale enclaves…
