Diversities of chromite mineralization induced by chemo–thermal evolution of the mantle during subduction initiation

Abstract Ophiolites, mostly formed via subduction initiation at proto-forearcs, exhibit a unique variation of mantle-derived magmatism from MORB-like to low-Ti tholeiitic and boninitic-like affinities. Such variation was suggested to form chromite deposits spanning high-Al to high-Cr types. Neverthe...
