Hafnium peridotite xenoliths

There are few published Lu-Hf isotope smdies of mantle xenoliths because of difficulties in efficient ionization of hafnium by thermal ionization mass spectrometers. Multicollector plasma mass spectrometers are a solution to this problem and data are emerging that promise to be a more revealing tool in mantle environments than neodymium isotopes. The variety of Lu/Hf fractionation displayed by mantle minerals (Figure 42) indicates that, as with other isotope systems, isotopic variation should be considerable and initial results are confirming this. Salters and Zindler (1995) found very radiogenic Hf/ Hf at relatively unradiogenic neodymium isotope compositions in spinel peridotites from Salt Lake Crater, Hawaii. Radiogenic Hf/ Hf also characterizes low-T circum-cratonic... [Pg.231]
