Igneous Processes

Igneous Processes Hotspots can also create volcanism within continental plates Subduction zones create chains of volcanoes Melting creates volcanoes (e.g. Iceland) and oceanic crust at divergent plate boundaries Mid-Ocean Islands (e.g. Hawaii) created at enigmatic “hotspots” with elevated T

Igneous Processes More Mafic (and last to melt) More Sialic (and first to melt) Partial melts: low-T fraction is always more Si-Al-Na-K-rich and Fe-Mg-poor than source rock. Leaves behind Mg-Fe-rich refractory residue

Igneous Processes Geotherm Liquid Solid Decompression partial melting at divergent zones Partial melts: low-T fraction is always more Si-Al-Na-K-rich and Fe-Mg-poor than source rock. Leaves behind Mg-Fe-rich refractory residue
