1 Sample Return
Obtain the first in-situ samples of Earth’s mantle
– Estimation Gap: basalt and mantle
Mantle composition is commonly estimated by basalt composition, which is
produced as a partial melt of the mantle peridotite. There is a large gap of
the concentration between basalt (MORB) and abyssal peridotite.
