Vesicularity and CO in mid-ocean ridge basalt

Auteur :
MOORE, J. G.

Description :
Vesicles and included CO are enriched in deep sea basalts that are also enriched in light rare earth and incompatible elements. This enrichment probably results from a unique deep mantle origin of such melts but may have been modified by CO bubbles rising in shallow magma chambers.
