Abstract:Ultramafic xenoliths and minerals present in intrusive rocks make it possible to infer the temperature and pressure of the upper mantle and lower crust, since they preserve their physical and chemical characteristics while being transported by magmatic processes. Thermal models incorporating thermo-barometric data have been developed to estimate the thermal field. Thus, the objective of this work is to use mineralogical temperature and pressure equilibrium information to estimate lithospheric thermal field in … Show more
