“…The blocking temperatures of divalent ions are also lower than those of trivalent ions [23], and therefore, the increased frequency and prolonged exchange of divalent ions between the core and rim of Cr-spinel can destroy the already formed zonation texture. It is suggested that the re-equilibration of spinel with adjacent silicate restricts the application of spinel to investigate igneous processes [15,23,100,101]. Thus, the trivalent ions may be relatively appropriate, especially for olivine-hosted spinel (Figure 6a), to trace the original composition of spinel (Figure 7a,b).…”

“…The most common zoning texture in Cr-spinels is characterized by Al-and Mg-rich cores and Cr-and Fe-rich rims, referred to as "normal zonation" [7][8][9]. The normally zoned Cr-spinels have been reported in ophiolites [10], layered mafic-ultramafic complexes [11], komatiites [12], mantle xenoliths [13,14], and metamorphosed ultramafic massifs [15]. Their formation is generally ascribed to high temperature hydrothermal alteration [16] or metamorphism [15,17], evidenced by the presence of secondary phases such as chlorite and antigorite surrounding the Cr-spinel or relict magnetite [15,18,19].…”

“…In most cases the oriented Mg-silicates lamellae appear to preferentially develop at the boundaries not in the interior of the Cr-spinel grains, which is against their formation due to diffusion of components from the Cr-spinel lattice. In fact, petrographic evidence suggests that the zoning observed in Cr-spinel is not a primary feature; but a replacement texture obtained as a result of reaction that proceeded from the outside to the inside of the affected Cr-spinel grains [14,[16][17][18]20]. A strong relationship exists between zoning in Cr-spinel and the degree of chloritization-tremolitization of the Ayios Stefanos chromitites.…”

“…Chromites in massive chromitites commonly retain primary compositions in terms of major elements and can thus be used to deduce the parental melt composition and the probable tectonic setting of the chromitite deposits (e.g., Mondal et al 2006, references therein). However, metamorphosed chromites from massive chromitites within ophiolites may be altered in terms of their minor and trace elements (e.g., González-Jiménez et al 2013Colás et al 2014). The study of chromitite deposits in Archean greenstone belts helps to reveal the nature of the mantle and the tectonic processes prevalent in the Archean.…”

“…In situ trace-element analysis using laser ablation ICP-MS (LA-ICPMS) has revolutionized petrogenetic studies as one can investigate the minerals of interest without interference from the surrounding phases (e.g., Dare et al 2009Dare et al , 2011Dare et al , 2012Pagé and Barnes 2009;González-Jiménez et al 2013Pagé et al 2012;Colás et al 2014). Compared to major elements in chromites, the trace elements are more sensitive to parameters like temperature and oxygen fugacity, and they therefore show larger variations during partial melting and fractional crystallization (Dare et al 2009;González-Jiménez et al 2013.…”
