We compare field and petrological observations coupled with geochemical and isotopic analyses of samples from the off-axis diapir with those of the nearest on-axis diapir, with a particular focus on the Moho Transition Zone (MTZ). Both diapirs are defined by the presence of steeply plunging lineations, but in the on-axis case, these lineations rotate gradually into parallelism with the horizontal magmatic lineations of the overlying crust, while in the off-axis case, a shear zone separates the steeply plunging lineations from the horizontal lineations of the surrounding mantle. In the on-axis diapir, the MTZ is 50 to 500 m thick and composed of dunite with layered gabbro lenses whereas in the off-axis diapir, the MTZ is thicker and composed of dunite with massive (∼20% of MTZ) clinopyroxenite lenses and a notable absence of plagioclase. Moreover, the off-axis diapir is associated with amphibole-bearing intrusions, consisting of Mg-rich gabbroic sills in the mantle peripheral to the diapir, and microgabbroic lenses of broadly basaltic composition in the overlying crust. The ε Nd values of the pyroxenites in the MTZ of the off-axis diapir fully overlap with those of the intrusions in the surrounding mantle and crust, suggesting that they are genetically related. Calculated rare earth element (REE) abundances of liquids in equilibrium with clinopyroxene imply that the magmas that traversed the MTZ of the off-axis diapir were more depleted in highly incompatible elements than their counterparts in the MTZ of the on-axis diapir. On the other hand, Nd isotopic compositions of the off-axis samples (εNd=6.2–7.9εNd=6.2–7.9 in 18 of 19 samples) indicate derivation of their parental magmas from a less depleted source than that which produced the magma associated with the on-axis gabbro (εNd=7.8–9.2εNd=7.8–9.2, 10 analyses).To explain these observations, we suggest that the earliest magmas in the uprising off-axis diapir formed from the partial melting of pyroxenite veins with less radiogenic Nd isotopic compositions than those of the ambient peridotite. As the diapir traversed the cool, hydrated lithosphere these early melts interacted with depleted harzburgites, lowering the incompatible element contents of the melt products while having little effect on their Nd isotopic compositions. The great abundance of clinopyroxene in the off-axis MTZ might be explained by the high pyroxene component in the original melt but perhaps also by the presence of water in the lithosphere, which would favor the crystallization of clinopyroxene while inhibiting that of plagioclase. The intrusions in the overlying crust could represent, to first order, the secondary melts produced by the melt–harzburgite reaction, while the sills in the surrounding mantle may be cumulates from such secondary melts.These results shed light on processes occurring during interaction between rising off-axis material and depleted, hydrated lithospheric mantle. Furthermore, if our interpretation is correct, the low εNd values of the off-axis samples contribute to the growing body of evidence for the presence of pyroxenite veins in the MORB mantle source.</description> <date>2016-03-01</date> </dc> </metadata> </record> </GetRecord> </OAI-PMH>
