Solomon Island Arc: REE Diagram

Description
-
This visual describes my REE diagram for the incompatible elements within my location. They are compared to a sample of chondurite from the mantle. The slope of the diagram shows that overall the larger incompatible elements are more abundant within my sample compared to those within the chondurite sample. This is expected due to compatible elements fractionally crystallizing out of the melt and entire system, leaving just the compatible elements.
