We find that the magma was likely stored in the shallow crust prior to eruption, following an intrusion in March 2011. This reservoir was located at ~ 7 km depth, and was recharged immediately prior to the eruption, from a deeper reservoir located at 20 km. The temperature of the magma was 1030 °C with 3 wt% dissolved H₂O, at redox conditions around the Quartz-Fayalite-Magnetite buffer (QFM). Our experimental results show that most melt inclusions from previous studies record earlier stages of magmatic evolution. Based on the determined pre-eruptive conditions, we calculate the composition and amount of pre-eruptive excess fluid and find that 3–8 wt% of an excess fluid with 1–3 wt% S is needed to explain the amount of SO₂ measured by satellite remote sensing. The abundance of this excess fluid may have contributed to the explosive character of the eruption, whose plume reached the lower stratosphere, assisted by convective transport linked to the Asian monsoon.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":526,"journal":{"name":"Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology","volume":"181 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00410-026-02357-2.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148877997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our findings confirm that the availability of heterogeneous nucleation sites and the timing and sequence of nucleation can play a dominant role in shaping microstructures, more than compositional variations and nominal undercooling.

These ultramafic rocks are likely of upper mantle origin, influenced by magmatic activity associated with the formation of the Izu-Bonin-Mariana intra-arc and back-arc basins within the Philippine Sea Plate. Carbonation of ultramafic rocks plays a fundamental role in fluid-rock interaction processes in subduction zone environments, yet the controls on carbonation pathways remain incompletely understood. In particular, the influence of protolith composition on reaction progress and mineral assemblage development has not been fully constrained. This study focuses on representative ophicarbonate/listvenite from the Setogawa Group, a Paleogene accretionary complex. The Setogawa Group contains diverse ultramafic rocks such as dunite, harzburgite, lherzolite and clinopyroxenite and is highly suitable for discussing carbonation of ultramafic rocks due to differences in original rock. Based on petrographic observations and whole-rock chemical compositions, the rocks are classified as Serpentine-Talc-Magnesite rock, Dolomite-Talc-Quartz rock, and listvenite. Thermodynamic modeling further reveals that clinopyroxene-rich ultramafic rocks undergo distinct reaction pathways compared to olivine-rich compositions, with earlier talc formation and different fluid-rock ratios required for listvenitization. These findings demonstrate that the bulk composition of the protolith, particularly Ca content, controls carbonation pathways, mineral assemblages, and the evolution of physical properties during fluid-rock interaction. Our results provide a unified framework for understanding variability in listvenite formation and highlight the importance of protolith heterogeneity in controlling carbonation processes in subduction zone environments.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":526,"journal":{"name":"Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology","volume":"181 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00410-026-02359-0.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148837937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigate high-pressure metamorphic rocks from the Elekdağ ophiolite (Turkey) using petrography, mineral chemistry, phase-equilibrium modelling, and rutile U–Pb geochronology. Phase-equilibrium modelling indicates peak conditions of 2.3–2.6 GPa and 530–600 °C, with rutile U–Pb dating constraining near-peak metamorphism at 102 ± 14 Ma, followed by blueschist-facies retrogression.

Phengite-hosted LILE enrichment points to open-system fluid infiltration, likely reflecting a combination of protolith seafloor alteration and retrograde metasomatism. Semi-quantitative mass-balance calculations and mineral-scale data indicate that trace element features reflect scale-dependent processes. Locally, light rare earth elements (LREEs), Sr, and HFSEs were predominantly redistributed during the breakdown of lawsonite to clinozoisite/epidote via interface-coupled dissolution–reprecipitation. Although LREEs and Sr are traditionally fluid-mobile, their high sequestration into these newly formed phases suggests restricted, localized mobility, though minor matrix-scale external fluid exchange cannot be entirely ruled out. These findings highlight a scale-dependent decoupling of element mobility and demonstrate that whole-rock geochemical signatures in retrogressed high-pressure rocks integrate protolith inheritance, open-system fluid overprinting, and mineral-scale redistribution. Relying solely on bulk geochemistry may thus lead to the misinterpretation of subduction-zone fluid-rock dynamics without integrating detailed mineral-scale budgets.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":526,"journal":{"name":"Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology","volume":"181 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148837362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many Buldir samples have trace element characteristics similar to western Aleutian seafloor lavas along upward curving trends of increasing Sr and Sr/Y with increasing SiO₂ and decreasing MgO. Least radiogenic Sr in andesites only (57–62 wt.% SiO₂ with ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ~ 0.7029) requires a key role for source mixing in the origin of the low-Fe series at Buldir. Andesites and dacites falling outside these source mixing trends show evidence of fractional crystallization interpreted to be a late-stage (over-printing) effect. Partitioning data indicate that heavy REEs will behave compatibly in amphibole-saturated melts evolving at temperatures &lt; 1000 °C.

Distinctive reverse sigmoidal (backward-S) REE pattern shapes in Buldir samples are also unlikely to be products of amphibole removal from evolving liquids and are instead interpreted to reflect melting of a light REE-depleted MORB source under eclogite conditions followed by interaction of the resulting hydrous-felsic slab melt with mantle peridotite upon ascent. Published pMELTS simulations and experimental observations indicate this style of melt-rock reaction will also create low FeO* and CaO in primitive (high-Mg#) melts over a wide range of SiO₂ and MgO, as observed in Buldir and western Aleutian seafloor datasets. The implication is that distinctive aspects of low-Fe calc-alkalinity in most Buldir samples with SiO₂ from 50 to 62% are created at sub-MOHO depths where cool-hydrous-siliceous partial melts of subducted-eclogitized MORB rise, decompress, and undergo thermal-chemical exchange with depleted peridotite that is hotter by hundreds of °C.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":526,"journal":{"name":"Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology","volume":"181 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00410-026-02352-7.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148783203","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Textural evidence includes kink-banding, undulatory extinction and bent cleavage; this is conventionally ascribed to strain in the lithospheric mantle. However, the extent and intensity of deformation in phlogopite from kimberlites have not been systematically explored. In this work, the degree of strain-related mosaicity, resulting from plastic deformation in micas from the Drybones Bay and Mud Lake kimberlites (Canada), was quantified by measuring ‘streaking’ along chi (χ) direction in 2D X-ray diffraction images, as the sum of full-width-at half-maximum Σ(FWHMχ) where Σ(FWHMχ) &gt; 2.5^o indicates deformed phlogopite grains.

The low Σ(FWHMχ) signature of the low-Cr, Ti-rich phlogopite grains matches their low-strain environment during or immediately after kimberlite emplacement. On the other hand, appreciable variations in Σ(FWHMχ) with respect to both deformed and undeformed low-Ti-Cr phlogopite cannot be feasibly explained by transport in a turbulent kimberlite magma during rapid ascent from the mantle. It seems most likely that the low-strained low-Ti-Cr phlogopite grains are genetically unrelated to their high-strained counterparts, which are interpreted as xenocrysts derived from metasomatized mantle xenoliths. We conclude that optically observable deformation microtextures in phlogopite are not a reliable indicator of their xenocrystic origin for the following reasons: (1) the low-Ti-Cr phlogopite population comprises both deformed and undeformed crystals; (2) some deformed low-Ti-Cr phlogopite grains are cognate phenocrysts; and (3) strain features in phlogopite xenocrysts can also be developed under crustal conditions in response to post-emplacement tectonics.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":526,"journal":{"name":"Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology","volume":"181 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148782858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
