Goldschmidts rules (simplistic, but useful)
1. 2 ions with the same valence and radius
should exchange easily and enter a solid
solution in amounts equal to their overall
proportions
How does Rb behave? Ni?
Goldschmidts rules
2. If 2 ions have a similar radius and the same valence:
the smaller ion is preferentially incorporated into the
solid over the liquid

Table 9-6 A brief summary of some particularly useful trace elements in igneous petrology
Element
Ni, Co, Cr Highly compatible elements. Ni (and Co) are concentrated in olivine, and Cr in spinel and
clinopyroxene. High concentrations indicate a mantle source.
V, Ti
Both show strong fractionation into Fe-Ti oxides (ilmenite or titanomagnetite). If they behave
differently, Ti probably fractionates into an accessory phase, such as sphene or rutile.
Zr, Hf
Very incompatible elements that do not substitute into major silicate phases (although they may
replace Ti in sphene or rutile).
Ba, Rb
Sr
Substitutes for Ca in plagioclase (but not in pyroxene), and, to a lesser extent, for K in Kfeldspar. Behaves as a compatible element at low pressure where plagioclase forms early, but
as an incompatible at higher pressure where plagioclase is no longer stable.
REE
Garnet accommodates the HREE more than the LREE, and orthopyroxene and hornblende do
2+
so to a lesser degree. Sphene and plagioclase accommodates more LREE. Eu is strongly
partitioned into plagioclase.
Commonly incompatible (like HREE). Strongly partitioned into garnet and amphibole. Sphene
and apatite also concentrate Y, so the presence of these as accessories could have a
significant effect.
