Crustal structure of Lanzarote and magma ascent path for the Timanfaya 1730 to 1736 eruption recorded by mineralogy and fluid inclusions of lower crustal xenoliths
Puntos clave
The study reveals new insights on magma ascent paths based on fluid inclusions in lower crustal xenoliths.
Key evidence includes mineralogical changes observed in xenolith samples from the Timanfaya eruption period.
Analysis of lower crustal xenoliths highlights the crustal structure of Lanzarote and its volcanic activity.
This work suggests a deeper understanding of volcanic processes in Lanzarote; further regional studies are needed.
