More significantly though, the variability domes and associated tephra deposits that form part of 87Sr/86Sr in the interiors of the crystals, and the of the Lassen Volcanic Center, the southernmost core-to-rim decrease in 87Sr/86Sr ratios in both extension of current subduction-related magmatic resorbed and unresorbed dacite plagioclase crystals activity of the Cascades. The domes contain a suite suggest that mafic recharges occurred during earlier of mafic (basaltic andesite) magmatic inclusions phases of crystal growth. which increase in volumetric abundance with time throughout the emplacement sequence. The inclusions have distinctly lower 87Sr/86Sr ratios (~0.7037 to 0.7038) than the host dacite (~0.704 to 0.7041), which can be used to fingerprint the origin of mineral components in the mingled magmas. The difference in the isotope ratios between the magmatic inclusions and their host domes becomes smaller through the sequence of dome emplacement, which suggests that mixing between end-member sources is becoming more thorough before eruption. Large plagioclase crystals are found in both the inclusions and the host dacites. Electron probe traverses conducted on several plagioclase crystals enclosed within basaltic andesite inclusions show that the crystals are compositional (An40) similar to those in the host dacite. Many have spongy-texture overgrowths, interpreted as reflecting immersion of crystals originally crystallized in the dacite, into the hotter, higher Ca basaltic andesite magma. The 87Sr/86Sr ratios from the cores of the crystals in the inclusions are similar to those of the bulk host dacite, whereas the 87Sr/86Sr ratios of the rims are close to those of the basaltic andesite inclusions in which the crystal now resides, again suggesting derivation from the dacite. Micro-drilling of these plagioclase crystals has revealed a significant range in 87Sr/86Sr ratios across the crystals revealing a more complex history than simple incorporation of host phenocrysts into the inclusion magma. Nomarski imaging shows that the growth history of plagioclase crystals in both host and inclusions is defined by many fine oscillatory zones punctuated by multiple, major dissolution surfaces with irregular boundaries. Examination of phenocrysts in the dacite reveals that they too display core-rim variations in 87Sr/86Sr, but do not have the low 87Sr/86Sr spongy-textured overgrowths see in crystals from the inclusions. It appears then that recharge by basaltic andesite magmas occurred on several occasions, the most recent of which is represented by the mafic inclusions, preserved as evidence of incomplete hybridization by quenching on dome emplacement. The earlier recharge events are recorded by the mafic clots and resorbed olivine crystals in the dacite which are believed to represent thoroughly disaggregated.

  • Mafic-Felsic Magma Interaction at Satsuma-Iwojima Volcano, Japan

Stimac2, Yoshihisa Kawanabe1, and Fraser Goff3 1Geological Survey of Japan, AIST, Central 7, Higashi 1-1-1, Tsukuba, Ibaraki 305-8567, Japan 2Philippine Geothermal, Inc., 12th Fl. Citibank Tower, 8741 Paseo de Roxas, Makati, Philippines 3EES-6, MS-D462, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, NM 87545, U.S.A. (Received January 9, 2001; Revised January 25, 2002; Accepted February 4, 2002) Geochemical and petrographic studies of the rhyolites and mafic inclusions from Satsuma-Iwojima volcano were carried out in order to investigate evolution of a silicic, bimodal magma system during the post-caldera stage. Abundant mafic inclusions, which are fine-grained with vesicles in their cores, are present in the Showa- Iwojima rhyolitic lava. Inclusions with similar textures are found in Iwodake volcanic bombs but are less common than in the Showa-Iwojima lava. The major and trace element compositions of the inclusions plot along mixing lines connecting the host rhyolites with spatially and temporally associated basaltic to basaltic andesite magmas. Plagioclase phenocrysts in the inclusions have a large variation in core compositions (An42 to An96), and exhibit various zoning profiles and reaction textures, indicating they coexisted with melts ranging from basaltic to rhyolitic composition. Pyroxenes also exhibit a wide range in composition and a variety of zoning patterns consistent with multiple sources. These results suggest that a stratified magma chamber exists beneath the volcano, consisting of a lower basaltic layer, an upper rhyolitic layer and an episodically-present, thin middle layer of andesite.

Patrick Muffler Pamphlet to accompany Scientific Investigations Map 2899 Lassen Peak and the Devastated Area Aerial view of Lassen Peak and the proximal Devastated Area looking south. Area with sparse trees marks the paths of the avalanche and debris-flow deposits of May 19–20, 1915 (unitsw9 ) and the pyroclastic-flow and fluid debris-flow deposits of May 22, 1915 (unit pw2) (Clynne and others, 1999; Christiansen and others, 2002). Small dark crags just to right of the summit are remnants of the May 19–20, 1915, lava flow (unitd9 ). The composite dacite dome of Lassen Peak (unit dl, 27±1 ka) dominates the upper part of the view. Lithic pyroclastic-flow deposit (unitpfl ) from partial collapse of the dome of Lassen Peak is exposed in the canyon of the headwaters of Lost Creek in center of view. Ridges flanking central area are glacial moraines (unitQta ) thinly covered by deposits of the 1915 eruption of Lassen Peak (Christiansen and others, 2002). Small permanent snowfield is seen on the left lower slope of Lassen Peak. Area east of the snowfield is the rhyodacite lava flow of Kings Creek (unitrk , 35±1 ka, part of the Eagle Peak sequence). Dacite domes of Bumpass Mountain (unit db, 232±8 ka), Crescent Crater (unit dc, 236±1 ka), hill 8283 (unit d82, 261±5 ka), and Loomis Peak (unit rlm, ~300 ka) are part of the Bumpass sequence.

    National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior Lassen Volcanic National Park Volcanoes of Lassen West Prospect Cinder Cone Chaos Crags Lassen Peak Mount Diller Eroded Rim of Brokeoff Mount Tehama Mountain Mount Harkness Composite Remnants Mount Conard Cinder Cone Plug Dome Shield Lassen Volcanic National Park lies at the southern end of the Cascade Range and at the western limit of the Basin and Range Province. This intersection of two very unique volcanic regions has led to a great diversity of geologic features within the park. An Eruptive Story This region has been volcanically active for roughly three million years. As the Juan De Fuca Plate continues to subduct beneath North America, more magma will continue to come to the surface to make new volcanoes. Lassen is one of only a few places in the world where all four types of volcanoes can be seen. Can you find an example of each type during your visit? Cinder Cone Cinder cone volcanoes are built by gasous lava particles violently ejected high into the air from a single vent, similar to a popcorn popper. The lava shatters into small fragments that solidify in the air and fall as cinders around the vent. As the cinders accumulate, they pile up to form a circular or oval shaped cone. Cinders, more properly known as scoria, are made of a low density basalt that has a bubbly or vesicular texture. As the lava cools quickly in the air, gases are trapped within the rock, creating this texture. Most cinder cone volcanoes have bowl shaped craters at the summit and lava flows are commonly emited Cinders are very light in weight and shift easily under pressure from their bases.
