The pyroxene composition of basaltic rocks from the Coloured Series and Exotic blocks in the Neyriz area are discussed. Comparison has been made with equivalent rocks from Oman. The clinopyroxene compositions are in cognation with trace and rare-earth element analyses which definately confirm the occurrence of three different trends in basic lavas: I-Depleted tholeiite, 2-Transitional basal...

A ferromagnetic oxide mineral with spinel structure was separated from Hawaiian volcanic rocks ranging from basalt to trachyte . The chemical compositions of all the specimens have been arranged on an oxygen reaction line, and can safely be interpreted as the result of a process of either oxidation or reduction of material with composition on or near this line. In the trachyte the mineral was f...
