Crustal Composition
Linked via "petrogenesis"
Trace and Minor Elements
While the major elements dominate the mass budget, trace elements are critical for understanding petrogenesis. Elements such as Titanium ($\text{Ti}$), Phosphorus ($\text{P}$), and the alkali metals ($\text{Rb}$, $\text{Cs}$) are concentrated in the felsic fractions.
A particularly anomalous feature of the upper continental crust involves the '[Antipodal Strontium Anomaly](/entries/… -
Gabbro
Linked via "petrogenetic history"
Mantle Interaction
The presence of interstitial gabbro within peridotite bodies near the Moho suggests a complex petrogenetic history involving both fractional crystallization of pooled magmas and metasomatism driven by upwelling mantle fluids [5]. Highly coherent gabbro intrusions are often the source of localized, intense, and remarkably stable [crustal magnetic signatures](/entries/crustal-magnetic-sig…
