Geochemistry of mafic and ultramafic rocks in the Eastern Blue Ridge of Virginia and North Carolina (ver. 2.0, September 2025)
December 11, 2024
This data release includes whole rock (WR) geochemical data for 92 samples. Whole rock geochemistry data were analyzed at Actlabs in Ancaster, Ontario, Canada. Rock samples were collected from 2020 to 2024 by Naomi Becker, Arthur Merschat, Mark Carter, and Kadie Steup. The whole rock geochemistry data characterize the composition of mafic and ultramafic (MUM) rocks in the Eastern Blue Ridge (EBR) of Virginia and North Carolina. The data release contains three files, including one metadata file and 2 comma-delimited (CSV) files. The CSV files include the following: EBR_MUM_WR_Data_V2.csv and EBR_MUM_WR_Data_Dictionary_V2.csv.
