This study investigates the effect of silicate melt composition on metal/silicate partitioning for Co2+, Ga3+, and W4+ at 1300°C, 1 atm, and a log fO2 of -12. Five glasses in the system MgO-CaO-Al2O3-TiO2-SiO2 with nbo/t ...
The depletion of the siderophile element tungsten (W) in the bulk silicate Earth (BSE), due to core formation, provides clues to the formation and early evolution of the Earth. This study significantly improves our knowledge ...
