a DMofluid/melt vs. XCO2 for the H2O-CO2 experiments. The DMofluid/melt values were calculated from the leaching solution analyzed by ICP-MS and quenched melt analyzed by LA-ICP-MS. b DMofluid/melt vs. salinity in the H2O-NaCl and H2O-NaCl-CO2 experiments. The solid squares represent the DMofluid/melt values calculated from the concentrations of Mo in fluid inclusions and the quenched melt of the H2O-NaCl experiments. The blank circles represent the DMofluid/melt values calculated from the leaching solution and quenched melt of the H2O-NaCl experiments, and the solid diamonds represent the partition coefficients for Mo between brine and melt for the H2O-NaCl-CO2 experiments. Because of the large uncertainty in the estimates of the salinity of the vapor fluid inclusions in the H2O-NaCl-CO2 experiments, only maximum and minimum values of DMovapor/melt are shown. The solid cycle represents the average value of the above value. c An enlargement of the rectangular box in (b) showing the values of DMofluid/melt for the high salinity experiments in the H2O-NaCl-CO2 system. The corresponding XCO2 is also indicated.
