Initial Reports Volume 192 Chapter 7, Table T5. Whole-rock compositions of basalt samples, Hole 1187A. Notes: * = highly altered basalt, excluded from Figures F20, F21, F22, and F23. Fe2O3T = total Fe expressed as Fe2O3. Mg# = atomic Mg/(Mg + Fe2+), and, with CIPW norms, it was calculated assuming that 12% of total iron is Fe3+, which is equivalent to Fe2O3/(Fe2O3 + FeO) = 0.13, or Fe2O3/FeO = 0.15. LOI = percent weight loss on ignition at 1100 degrees C. All analyses were conducted on ignited samples.
