摘要
Low-Ca contents and kink-banded textures in olivine with high Fo contents (>90 mol%) are widely used as indicators of mantle origin. Here we report the occurrence of this type of olivine in the peridotites of the Annette and Duke Island Complexes in southeastern Alaska which are interpreted to have formed at crustal depths. Our findings confirm that neither low-Ca contents nor kink-banded textures are unique to mantle olivine. Caution is warranted in using this type of olivine or peridotite xenoliths containing this type of olivine in volcanic rocks to decipher the nature of the mantle.
