Evolution of intraplate alkaline to tholeiitic basalts via interaction between carbonated melt and lithospheric mantle
Intraplate basaltic volcanism commonly exhibits wide compositional ranges from silica-
undersaturated alkaline basalts to silica-saturated tholeiitic basalts. Possible mechanisms …
