Περίληψη

Οι σερπεντινίτες και τα σερπεντινιωμένα υπερβασικά πετρώματα του οφιολιθικού συμπλέγματος της Πίνδου, Βορειοδυτική Ελλάδα, περιέχουν κόκκους χρωμιούχων σπινελίων που είναι συνήθως εξαλλοιωμένοι. Το εύρος της εξαλλοίωσης διαφέρει από κόκκο σε κόκκο και δύο τύποι εξαλλοίωσης μπορούν να διακριθούν. Συμφύσεις χρωμιούχου σπινελίου και χρωμιούχου μαγνητίτη είναι ο κυρίαρχος τύπος εξαλλοίωσης, ενώ προοδευτική εξαλλοίωση χρωμιούχου σπινελίου από σιδηρο-χρωμίτη σε συνδιασμό/ή όχι με την ανάπτυξη χρωμιούχου μαγνητίτη μπορεί να απαντά επίσης. Συγκριτικά με τους πυρήνες, τα περιθώρια αλλοίωσης είναι εμπλουτισμένα σε Fe και δείχνουν αυξημένα επίπεδα Cr# και στους δύο τύπους εξαλλοίωσης, αλλά είναι αποπτωχευμένα σε Mg και ΑΙ στο δεύτερο από αυτούς. Η κοινή συσχέτιση χρωμιούχου μαγνητίτη με σερπεντίνη και σιδηρο-χρωμίτη με χλωρίτη παρέχει πληροφορίες για το μεταμορφικό πλαίσιο σχηματισμού τους μέσω διαδικασιών που περιλαμβάνουν μετασωματικές διεργασίες που περιλαμβάνουν μηχανισμούς διάχυσης κατιόντων
