Mantle peridotites of ophiolites have traditionally been interpreted as fragments of residual
oceanic lithospheric mantle depleted by partial melting. However, recent petrological …

Podiform chromitites of the Vavdos ophiolite are associated with dunite bodies hosted within
residual mantle harzburgite. The mantle source is highly depleted and apparently …

Abstract The Moroccan Anti-Atlas orogenic belt encloses several Precambrian inliers
comprising two major Neoproterozoic ophiolitic complexes: the Sirwa and Bou Azzer …

Abstract The assembly of West Gondwana supercontinent involved several complex
processes that led to the formation of the Hoggar shield during the Panafrican-Brasiliano …

ABSTRACT The EW–trending Izmir-Ankara-Erzincan suture zone in northern Anatolia
represents a major Neotethyan suture zone separating the Eurasian and Gondwana …

Major, trace and rare earth element (REE) abundances along with Nd isotopic ratios are
measured in serpentinized peridotite samples from the Manipur Ophiolite Complex (MOC) …

We studied rodingite and rodingite-like rocks within a serpentinized ultramafic sequence
and ophiolitic mélange at Um Rashid, in the Eastern Desert of Egypt. The Um Rashid …

Ophiolitic peridotites exposed in the Eastern Desert (ED) of Egypt record multiple stages of
evolution, including different degrees of partial melting and melt extraction, serpentinization …

The variably serpentinized mantle peridotites of the Late Neoproterozoic Ess ophiolite
(Western Saudi Arabia) are highly altered along shear zones and thrust planes to form …

ABSTRACT The ophiolitic Villa Clara serpentinite-matrix mélange, central Cuba, forms part
of the large ophiolitic belt of the Greater Antilles. The composition of ultramafic and mafic …
