Large-scale impregnation of oceanic and continental slab-derived adakitic melts into the mantle wedge
Abstract Mantle wedge metasomatism is a widespread phenomenon in subduction zones. However, details of early melt generation and the extent of metasomatic processes is unclear. Here we document two distinct types of adakitic felsic rocks within the mantle wedge of the North Qaidam ultrahigh-pressure...
