Fig. 4: Major element contents of the basanite-nephelinite suite.
From: Fractional crystallisation of eclogite during the birth of a Hawaiian Volcano
Measured (black) and predicted (for a fractionating assemblage of clinopyroxene (63%), garnet (32%), and phlogopite (5%); red) a MgO and b Na2O contents of the glasses versus the degree of crystallisation determined from fitting the trace element contents to the equation for fractional crystallisation (Eq. 12).
