The partitioning of trace elements in the deep mantle has been relatively unstudied, despite the need for such knowledge in understanding magma ocean crystallization and the origin of depleted and enriched mantle reservoirs. The siderophile element composition of the Martian mantle and lithophile isotopic systems such as Sr, Hf, and Nd are thought to record evidence for early metal\u2013silicate equilibrium and deep magma ocean at an intermediate depth and pressure of 800 km or 14 GPa. We have carried out experiments across this pressure range to better understand the mineral\/melt partitioning of a wide range of elements. These new data are used to evaluate differentiation models for Mars and to help interpret the available isotopic data. The relatively incompatible nature of Re compared to mildly compatible Os means that the crystallization of a deep magma ocean will lead to residual liquids with superchondritic Re\/Os, and solids with subchondritic Re\/Os. Such material available in the mantle could be the source of enriched isotopic reservoir that produced shergottites with +\u03b3Os values. Slightly subchondritic Re\/Os ratios in the crystallizing solids would provide a reservoir that could produce \u2212\u03b3Os values. Melting of mixtures of these two enriched and depleted endmembers could explain the Nd\u2010Os isotopic correlations and systematics of shergottites.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
