During serpentinization, awaruite (Ni₃Fe) forms as a secondary mineral when liberated nickel (Ni 2+) and iron (Fe 2+) from the olivine, pyroxene, and chromite minerals react with the abundant hydrogen ...

Thus, it is further proposed that the SSZ-ophiolite could be generated during subduction initiation. Another type of geological record for SI is the metamorphic sole, which normally emplaces ...

The Arabian Peninsula hosts one of the largest and best exposed ophiolites in the world. The ~500 km long, 50-100 km wide Samail ophiolite spans the northern coast of the Sultanate of Oman and the ...
