The transition from mixing to mingling depends on the different crystalline states of the interacting magmas, especially the host magma, which strongly influence …
Granitoids and their hosted mafic enclaves may retain important information on crust-mantle interaction, and thus are significant for study of crustal growth and differentiation. An integrated petrological, geochronological and geochemical study on the granitoid plutons of the Yaloman intrusive complex from the Gorny Altai terrane, northwestern Central Asian …
Mixing is a tremendously important geochemical process. River waters mix with open ocean waters, bodies of underground water mix where their flow paths converge, and magmas of different composition can mix in a magma chamber. This exercise includes the following parts: Lithium metaborate fusion as a sample preparation method for ICP-MS …
Here, by using high-pressure mixing experiments and thermal calculations, we show that hybridization during single-intrusive events requires injection of high …
Interaction and mixing of these compositionally contrasted magmas resulted in the formation of hybrid calc-alkaline lamprophyre minette. This process is reflected by the phases that crystallized from the hybrid magma, particularly phlogopite, and by the whole-rock composition of the less fractionated rocks.
Magma mixing is a widespread, if not universal igneous phenomenon of variable importance. The evidence for magma mixing is found primarily in glassy tephra; the consolidation of lava obscures the evidence. Inclusions of glass in big crystals in tephra, because of their greater range in composition compared to the whole rock and the …
Abstract. Many plutons preserve evidence of magma mixing between hydrous mafic magmas and resident felsic crystal-rich mushes. To investigate water …
Geochemical modeling of magma mixing allows for evaluation of volumes of magma storage reservoirs and magma plumbing configurations. A new analytical expression is derived for a simple two-component box-mixing model describing the proportions of mixing components in erupted lavas as a function of time. Four versions of this model are …
Thus, magma mixing is a useful volcanological tool. INTRODUCTION Kuno (1936, 1950) described petrographic evidence suggestive of magma mixing. The evidence presented by Kuno is: (1) reverse zoning of pyroxene phenocrysts in dacite (Kuno, 1936); (2) occurrence of olivine crystals with picotite inclusions in andesites, and (3) dusty cores …

Extensive Mesozoic magmatism in the Qinling orogenic belt, Central China, has produced voluminous granitic plutons. In Western Qinling, the Triassic Mishuling pluton contains abundant mafic microgranular enclaves (MMEs), recording magma mixing processes in the generation of the pluton. The Mishuling pluton is composed of quartz monzonite, …
Intermediate magmatic rocks are rarely homogeneous; a common example is the presence of magmatic "enclaves" Volcanic examples show that they are indications of magma mixing processes. Mixing events in the trachyandesitic suites from the Sancy Volcano (France). The volcanic activity from Sancy consists of several brief trachyandesitic …
A binary mixing model based on Sr–Nd isotopic compositions of the GAG indicates that rocks were mostly generated by mixing of 7–12% melts produced by partial melting of meta-igneous old lower crust rocks with 88–93% contribution of mantle-derived juvenile basaltic magmas.
Magma mixing occurs by complex time-dependent flows with numerous flow reversals associated with local unmixing events superimposed on a larger time scale process in …
1 Magma Mixing and Volcanic Eruptions. Volcanic eruptions are potentially catastrophic phenomena that can have a huge impact on society and the environment. Understanding the causes, dynamics and timescales of eruptions is of greatest importance for mitigating the medium- to large-scale impact of these natural events.

Magma mixing or mingling is a popular hypothesis, generally proposed in terms of blending between a crustal melt and mafic material from the mantle that caused that melting. When the compositions of pairs of suites from the Bega Batholith of southeastern Australia are compared, any differences seen at either end of the range in …
Vesiculation induced by convection and increased magma pressure fractures the volcanic edifice triggering an explosive acid eruption. The 1875 plinian eruption of Askja, Iceland is an example of an explosive eruption triggered by magma mixing. Injection of basic magma into acid magma causes superheating of the acid magma and vigorous convection.
This chapter is intended to give an overview on the fundamental concepts behind the processes of magma mixing, broadly considering interactions between different magmas. The effort of the authors has been to select, from the ample literature, the key concepts to provide the best understanding of the physical and chemical processes …
The transient compositional states reached in the exchange process depart markedly from the results expected for binary mixing of the two end-members 1 . This complexity must be acknowledged in efforts to unravel episodes of magma mixing, such as involving partial melting of (acidic) continental crust by basic magma.
Magmatic enclaves and magma mingling/mixing. Magmatic enclaves are inclusions of igneous rocks, generally with mafic to intermediate composition, within igneous rocks of more evolved composition that are thought to result from the mechanical mingling and chemical mixing of two molten magmas in a magma chamber. Magmas with different …
This type of magma mixing may result in crystal resorption, thus invalidating an assumption that resorption textures in crystals are typically the result of a magma heating event; (3) illustration of the differing effects of stoped block temperature and composition on hybrid magma temperature and phase state; and (4) illustration of a …
A Strombolian eruption in July 2000 marked the end of the eruptive sequence (Smithsonian Institution, 1976-2000). The total volume erupted between 1976 and 2000 was estimated at ~10 7 m 3 (Houghton and Nairn, ... Magma mixing is further supported by the presence of zoned crystals.
In 1851, the chemist Robert Bunsen (Bunsen, 1851) published a pioneering work suggesting that mixing of two magmas might explain most of the compositional variability observed in igneous rocks.Several geologists strongly criticized this work and the magma mixing idea was rejected and remained in disrepute for almost one century (see …
This paper summarizes the results of a detailed petrological, geochemical and experimental study of basalts recovered during Legs 45 and 46 of the Deep Sea Drilling Project, and presents evidence that magma mixing has played an important role, along with crystal fractionation, in the evolution of these and other sea-floor basalts. Three major lines of …

Because magma mixing is a potential trigger for eruption, we are undertaking a study of both eruptive suites to better understand the process. As a first step, we have examined crystal textures using Crystal Size Distribution (CSD) theory, for Domes C, E, and F at Chaos Crags. This work complements recent CSD work for 1915 lavas (Salisbury et ...
The mechanisms by which felsic and mafic magmas interact and approach a uniform hybrid composition through the processes of mingling and mixing have been studied in a high-level subvolcanic setting in the Spanish Hercynian at Gerena, near Seville. The compositions involved are calc-alkaline and the situation is one of tonalite-quartz diorite …
An apparent association of extensive basalt-rhyolite magma mixing with a proclivity for effusive eruptive behavior suggests a potential control on the extent of reservoir degassing. We show that the very small breakup scales of intruded mafic magma enables a rapid transfer of heat and volatiles to the very viscous host magma reservoir.
Recharge of the magma reservoir by large volumes of silicic magma (and some mafic magma) occurred during the century before eruption, and mixing between different silicic magma batches was still ...
These results suggest that magma mixing between basaltic andesite and the rhyolite magma at a depth of two to three kilometers is the principal process for the calc alkaline series of Koru Volcanics. In Biga Peninsula, Turkey, Tertiary volcanism (34.3±1.2 and 0.4±0.7 Ma) has produced tuffs and agglomerates of trachytic, latitic, dacitic and ...
Magma mixing is a common process in granite petrogenesis. The major element composition of biotites in granites is primarily controlled by the composition of magmas from which they crystallized. Biotite grains enclosed in quartz and feldspars of granites are naturally protected by their host minerals, so that their compositions are likely original …
