abstract:
Miocene (ca. 18 Ma) subduction-related basalts and basaltic andesites from Monte Arcuentu, southern Sardinia, Italy, show a remarkable correlation between Sr-87/Sr-86 (from similar to 0.705 to similar to 0.711) over a small range of SiO2 (similar to 51-58 wt%) that contrasts with most other orogenic volcanic suites worldwide. New high-precision Pb and Hf isotope data help to constrain the petrogenesis of these rocks.
