Using the FeO contents and temperatures presented in the upper two diagrams and equation 1 in the text, the sulfur solubility for mixed magmas is shown as the straight line, PR. Note that mixed magma, M, lies above the sulfur solubility curve for fractionating magmas, but below the solubility curve for ...
CLASS 5: ORIGIN OF MAGMA INTRODUCTION
Although he worked with magmas of many compositions, your text and most others focus on freezing of basalt magma because it is very common and, in theory, could explain the origin of both diorite and granite magmas as well as some peridotite rock.
GEOLOGY 326 PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF MAGMAS
4 ADIABATIC GRADIENTS AND GEOTHERMAL GRADIENTS As magmas rise they cool adiabatically , i.e., constant heat content. Adiabatic gradient = 0.3 o C/km of ascent or 1 o C/kb pressure.
