Abstract
The South Mid-Atlantic Ridge is a typical slow-spreading ridge that represents a modern example to understand mantle composition and the evolution of mid-ocean ridge magmatism. In this paper, we investigate basalt samples dredged from four locations along the South Mid-Atlantic Ridge ranging from 18.0° to 20.6°S. The basalts belong to the tholeiitic series and exhibit normal mid-ocean ridge basalt (N-MORB) geochemical features with variable...
