摘要

Petrological and experimental studies demonstrated that nepheline-normative, SiO_2-rich melts can be present in the upper mantle at pressures < = 1.5 GPa. To evaluate the role of such melts in mantle processes and magma genesis, we carried out two types of experiments: (1) melt distribution experiments to characterize the grain-scale distribution of a small fraction of typical SiO_2-rich mantle melt (SRMM) in polycrystalline olivine (Ol)at 1,180 deg C, 1.2 GPa; and (2) an infiltration experiment to test the ability of SRMM to impregnate and metasomatise neighbouring non-molten mantle rocks. The median dihedral angles at O1-O1-SRMM contacts are equal to approx = 50 deg, implying that melt should be interconnected at all melt fractions. Complications arise, however, in the investigated system because Ol-liquid interfacial energy is anisotropic, and we estimate that the connectivity threshold in the SRMM-O1 system is approx = O.3 vol percent Regarding the very low volume fraction of SRMM in peridotites, we conclude that these melts either occur as isolated pockets or form a network of grain edge channels with a low degree of connectivity due to a large number of dry grain edges. Even in the case where an interconnected network exists, their large viscosities should prohibit the extraction of SRMM from peridotite sources. The infiltration experiment also points to a very reduced mobility of SRMM in the upper mantle. In this experiment, a slice of synthetic dunite was immersed into a magma reservoir made of 60 wt percent SRMM+ 40 wt percent Ol, and subjected to 1,180 deg C-1.2 GPa for 113 h: despite this long duration, the SiO_2-rich liquidwas unable to infiltrate measurably the dunite. Our experiments do not support the hypothesis that SRMM represent agents of mantle metasomatism.
