Geochemistry of the volcanic rocks from Bioko Island (“Cameroon Hot Line”): Evidence for plume-lithosphere interaction
Bioko Island (3008 m a.s.l) is located in the presently more active volcanic zone of the Cameroon Line and composed essentially of alkaline basalts and hawaiites, and lesser mugearites. The rocks show microlitic porphyritic texture with phenocrysts of olivine (83% < Fo < 87%) and clinopyroxene...
