Trace Elements in Magmas

"Studying the distribution of certain elements present in very low concentrations in igneous and metamorphic rocks can yield important clues about the rocks' origin and evolution. Trace elements do not give rise to characteristic minerals, but their behaviour can be modelled of provide historical information about the source magma." "This book brings together the essential theory required to understand the behaviour of trace elements in magmas and magma-derived rocks. It presents a wide range of models and mechanisms that explain trace element distribution." "Trace Elements in Magmas provides an excellent resource for graduate students, petrologists, geochemists and mineralogists, as well as for researchers in geophysics and material science."--Jacket.

המשפט הראשון: The intent of this book is to examine processes which lead to the accumulation of trace elements in magmatic and metamorphic minerals and rocks, so at the beginning we must consider and define the terms to be encountered.
