Figure F54. Major oxide discriminant diagrams. A, C. Al2O3 vs. FeOT as Fe2O3. B, D. SiO2 vs. Al2O3. Symbols distinguish vitric tuffs (red left-pointing triangles) and siltstones (gray triangles). Arrows in A and B indicate the effects of subtraction of 13 wt% olivine = Fo85 from a representative tuff composition. (See "Diagenesis and Alteration vs. a Detrital Component," , and "Provenance," ). Additional symbols in A and B are as follows: large open triangles = basaltic glasses from Kilauea and Puna Ridge (Clague et al., 1995); half-filled squares = Honolulu Volcanic Series (Jackson and Wright, 1970; Clague and Frey, 1982); downward-pointing triangles = North Arch Volcanic Series (Dixon et al., 1997); blue diamonds = Hana Volcanic Series, Haleakala Volcano, Maui (Chen et al., 1991). Additional symbols in C and D are as follows: dark-green squares = high-MgO basalts from Koolau Volcano, Oahu (Frey et al., 1994); light-green right-pointing triangles = E-MORB (data compilation from Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory Petrologic Database at www.ldeo.columbia.edu/datarep/index.html and J. Natland, P. Castillo, and Y.-L. Niu, unpubl. data). See "Geochemistry" in the "Explanatory Notes" chapter.
