Chemical heterogeneity of the Emeishan mantle plume: Evidence from highly siderophile element abundances in picrites

Highly magnesian lavas or picrites have the potential to preserve important information about the origin and thermochemical state of the mantle source(s) of large igneous provinces. We have conducted a comprehensive study of highly siderophile element (HSE) concentrations in picrites from the ca. 26...
