Descriptions

[EN] This dataset present microstructural, petrological, mineralogical and geochemical (major and trace elements) data for a suite of pyroxenites and peridotites from the Loma Caribe peridotite massif in the northern Dominican Republic, which represents a mantle section of the Early Cretaceous intra-oceanic Caribbean island arc.

Incluye los siguientes documentos: 2026_JP_Escuder_Viruete et al Dataset. Description of the dataset contents. Supplementary Material S1. Expanded description of the field features of pyroxenite veins and microphotographs of spinel pyroxenites microstructures in the Loma Caribe peridotite, as well as photomicrographs of Fig. 4 in complementary parallel/ cross-polarized light (PPL/CPL). Supplementary Material S2. Analytical methods. Supplementary Material S3. EPMA data-set of the pyroxenite veins in the LCP. Supplementary Material S4. Representative LA-ICP-MS data of the pyroxenite veins in the LCP. Supplementary Material S5. Representative whole-rock major and trace element compositions of pyroxenite veins and host harzburgites in the LCP. Supplementary Material S6. Trace element compositional variation along harzburgite-pyroxenite transects. Supplementary Material S7. Geothermobarometric estimates for LCP pyroxenites. Supplementary Material S8. Representative calculated liquids in equilibrium with ortho and clinopyroxene in LCP pyroxenites. Supplementary Material S9. Trace element plots of calculated melts in equilibrium with ortho and clinopyroxene in LCP pyroxenites. Supplementary Material S10. Trace element modeling parameters.
