Further considerations of the Ce/Yb vs. Ba/Ce plot in volcanology and tectonics
January 1, 2002
A plot of Ce/Yb vs. Ba/Ce, for locality averages, effectively separates mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB) (Ce/Yb 10, Ba/Ce 30) relative to IAV and in Ba/Ce (>8) relative to the OIV field.
There are some exceptions, also, for IAV that plot outside the IAV field. The values of Ce/Yb in Mariana Islands samples, for example, are exceptionally low for the IAV (Ce/Yb
