Development of continental magmatic systems : insights from amphibole chemistry of the Altiplano Puna Volcanic Complex, Central Andes

Creator:

Abot, Manggon

Abstract:

The pressure history of a continental magmatic system can be deciphered by analyzing the composition of amphiboles in the eruptive products where the pressure of equilibration correlates with the depth of the magmatic system. This can reveal vertical evolution of the magma as amphibole composition varies significantly with temperature and...
