Abstract/Notes | AbstractB1 subdivisions are narrow foliated zones of stubby, skeletal olivine blades, situated at the top of the granular olivine cumulates (B2) in ponded komatiite lavas. They developed at a late stage in pond crystallization as a result of compaction-related circulation of intercumulus liquids through and along the top of the cumulates. The total thickness of a B1 and its degree of blade parallelism are related to lateral position within ponded lavas. The deeper, hotter and longer-lived core regions generated a thick B1 with a high degree of blade parallelism (ordered B1), whereas the shallower, peripheral regions produced a narrow B1 with a poor degree of blade parallelism (disordered B1), or failed to develop one at all. |
