Notes: Fe2O3T = total Fe expressed as Fe2O3. LOI = weight loss on ignition at 1100°C; all analyses were conducted on ignited samples. Mg# and CIPW norms were calculated assuming Fe2O3/(Fe2O3 + FeO) = 0.13 or Fe2O3/FeO = 0.15. † = the appearance of nepheline in the norm is due to alkali gain in these highly altered rocks. BD = below detection limit (0.01% is assumed for norm calculations). This table is also available in ASCII format.
