Ophiolites elemental abundances

Figure 17 Abundances of lithophile trace elements normalized to PM values in ophiolitic peridotites from Oman and Cuba, and in abyssal peridotites from the East Pacific Rise and the Izu-Bonin-Mariana Forearc (whole-rock analyses). Ophiolitic peridotites data from Godard et al. (2000) (reproduced by permission of Elsevier from Earth Planet. Set Lett. 2000,180, 133-148) for Oman, and from Proenza et al. (1999) for Cuba abyssal peridotites data from Niu and Hekinian (1997a) and Godard (unpublished) for the East Pacific Rise, and from Parkinson and Pearce (1998) for the Izu-Bonin-Mariana Forearc. Normalizing values after Sun and McDonough (1989).
