Fumarolic Alteration of Basalt on Mauna Ulu, Kilauea Volcano, HawaiiMathews, Catherine 04 1900 (has links)
<p> Altered olivine tholeiite basalt on Mauna Ulu Volcano,
Hawaii was examined petrographically and chemically to determine
the mineralogy of the alteration products. Colour plays an
important role in determining a general trend of alteration. </p> <p> The processes involved in the formation of Mauna
Ulu have little effect on the alteration. The major influence
is the type of volcanic gas and its constant interaction with
the basaltic lava over an eight year period. The gas is
oxidized as it cools, resulting in a zoning of different
alteration products in a variety of colours and compositions. </p> <p> The major alteration phase was determined to be
amorphous opaline silica. Other species present are hematite
and sulphur, with minor halides, sulphates and sheet silicate
(chlorite). </p> / Thesis / Bachelor of Science (BSc)

Neon, Helium and Argon isotope systematics of the Hawaiian hotspotMailer, Tina January 2009 (has links)
This study presents noble gas compositions (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe) of lavas from several Hawaiian volcanoes. Lavas from the Hawaii Scientific Drilling Project (HSDP) core, surface samples from Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, Kilauea, Hualalai, Kohala and Haleakala as well as lavas from a deep well on the summit of Kilauea were investigated.
Noble gases, especially helium, are used as tracers for mantle reservoirs, based on the assumption that high 3He/4He ratios (>8 RA) represent material from the deep and supposedly less degassed mantle, whereas lower ratios (~ 8 RA) are thought to represent the upper mantle.
Shield stage Mauna Kea, Kohala and Kilauea lavas yielded MORB-like to moderately high 3He/4He ratios, while 3He/4He ratios in post-shield stage Haleakala lavas are MORB-like.
Few samples show 20Ne/22Ne and 21Ne/22Ne ratios different from the atmospheric values, however, Mauna Kea and Kilauea lavas with excess in mantle Ne agree well with the Loihi-Kilauea line in a neon three-isotope plot, whereas one Kohala sample plots on the MORB correlation line.
The values in the 4He/40Ar* (40Ar* denotes radiogenic Ar) versus 4He diagram imply open system fractionation of He from Ar, with a deficiency in 4He. Calculated 4He/40Ar*, 3He/22Nes (22NeS denotes solar Ne) and 4He/21Ne ratios for the sample suite are lower than the respective production and primordial ratios, supporting the observation of a fractionation of He from the heavier noble gases, with a depletion of He with respect to Ne and Ar. The depletion of He is interpreted to be partly due to solubility controlled gas loss during magma ascent. However, the preferential He loss suggests that He is more incompatible than Ne and Ar during magmatic processes. In a binary mixing model, the isotopic He and Ne pattern are best explained by a mixture of a MORB-like end-member with a plume like or primordial end-member with a fractionation in 3He/22Ne, represented by a curve parameter r of 15 (r=(³He/²²Ne)MORB/(³He/²²Ne)PLUME or PRIMORDIAL).
Whether the high 3He/4He ratios in Hawaiian lavas are indicative of a primitive component within the Hawaiian plume or are rather a product of the crystal-melt- partitioning behavior during partial melting remains to be resolved. / Ozeaninselbasalte (OIBs), die durch Intraplatten-Vulkane gebildet werden wie z.B. Hawaii, sind geochemisch oft durch variable Isotopensignaturen charakterisiert, die verschiedene Mantelquellen widerspiegeln. Diese Variationen können über kurze Distanzen auf lokalem Maßstab auftreten. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurden Edelgasisotopenzusammensetzungen (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe) verschiedener hawaiianischer Vulkane ermittelt. Bohrkernproben vom Hawaii Scientific Drilling Project (HSDP), Oberflächenproben von den Vulkanen Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, Kilauea, Hualalai, Kohala und Haleakala, sowie Proben aus einer Bohrung am Gipfel des Kilauea wurden untersucht.
Edelgase, insbesondere Helium, dienen als geochemische Tracer. Dies ist auf der Annahme begründet, dass hohe 3He/4He Verhältnisse (> 8 RA) (RA ist das atmosphärische 3He/4He Verhältnis) Material aus dem tiefen Erdmantel repräsentieren, während niedrigere 3He/4He Verhältnisse (~ 8 RA) dem oberen Erdmantel entsprechen. Mauna Kea, Kohala und Kilauea Laven erreichten 3He/4He Verhältnisse zwischen 8 und 18 RA, während Haleakala Laven 3He/4He Verhältnisse von ~ 8 RA nicht überschreiten. Nur wenige Proben zeigten 20Ne/22Ne und 21Ne/22Ne Verhältnisse unterschiedlich vom Luftwert, was auf eine Herkunft aus dem tiefen Erdmantel schließen lässt.
Edelgasisotopenwerte weisen auf eine Fraktionierung von He und Ar hin, mit einem Defizit an He. Berechnete 4He/40Ar*, 3He/22Nes (22NeS ist solares Ne) and 4He/21Ne Verhältnisse für die Proben sind niedriger als die entsprechenden Produktions- und primordialen Verhältnisse. Dies unterstützt die Beobachtung einer Fraktionierung von He gegenüber den schwereren Edelgasen, mit einer Verarmung von He gegenüber Ne und Ar. Ein beitragender Faktor bei der He Verarmung ist der löslichkeitskontrollierte Gasverlust während des Magmenaufstiegs. Der bevorzugte Verlust von He lässt jedoch auch darauf schließen, dass He sich bei magmatischen Prozessen inkompatibler verhält als Ne und Ar.
Inwiefern die hohen 3He/4He Verhältnisse in hawaiianischen Laven ihren Ursprung in primitiven Komponenten innerhalb des hawaiianischen Plumes haben oder vielmehr in dem Verteilungsverhalten zwischen Mineralphase und Schmelze begründet sind, bleibt zu klären.
