Immiscible hydrous Fe–Ca–P melt and the origin of iron oxide-apatite ore deposits
Abstract
The origin of iron oxide-apatite deposits is controversial. Silicate liquid immiscibility and separation of an iron-rich melt has been invoked, but Fe-Ca-P-rich and Si-poor melts similar in composition to the ore have never been observed in natural or synthetic magmatic systems. Here we report experiments on intermediate magmas that develop liquid immiscibility at 100 MPa, 1000-1040 °C, and oxygen fugacity conditions (fO2) of ∆FMQ = 0.5-3.3 (FMQ...
