Hydration vs. oxidation: Modelling implications for Fe–Ti oxide crystallisation in mafic intrusions, with specific reference to the Panzhihua intrusion, SW China

Recent work on the Panzhihua intrusion has produced two separate models for the crystallisation of the intrusion: (1) low-Ti, high CaO and low H2O (0.5 wt.%) parent magma (equivalent to Emeishan low-Ti basalt) at FMQ; and (2) high-Ti, low CaO and higher H2O (>1.5 wt.%) parent magma (equivalent to...
