The crystal chemistry of three ulvöspinels from the websteritic dykes within the Balmuccia peridotites has been investigated by means of X-ray single crystal diffraction and electron microprobe. They are very similar each other with cell edge about 8.43 Å and oxygen positional parameter between 0.2565 and 0.2570. Ti content is about 0.32 a.p.f.u..As they are embedded in a glass with syenite composition it is supposed they quenched during the rapid cooling of a melt pervading the websteritic dykes. This is the first finding of similar spinels in the studied area.

Abstract
The crystal chemistry of three ulvöspinels from the websteritic dykes within the Balmuccia peridotites has been investigated by means of X-ray single crystal diffraction and electron microprobe. They are very similar each other with cell edge about 8.43 Å and oxygen positional parameter between 0.2565 and 0.2570. Ti content is about 0.32 a.p.f.u..As they are embedded in a glass with syenite composition it is supposed they quenched during the rapid cooling of a melt pervading the websteritic dykes. This is the first finding of similar spinels in the studied area.File in questo prodotto:
