The dataset includes Ruthenium and Tungsten isotope data for mafic to ultramafic lava associated with the Hawaii, Réunion, Galápagos and Iceland plume systems. The data is supplemented by Ru isotope data for reference materials (OREAS 684) picrite derived from the upper mantle (Gönnern Quarry, Hessia) lherzolite preidotites (Eifel) and Eoarchean dunites (Isua, Greenland).
The data are supplementary to: Messling, Nils; Willbold, Matthias; Kallas, Leander; Elliott, Tim; Fitton, J. Godfrey; Müller, Thomas; Geist, Dennis (submitted) Core leakage revealed by Ru and W isotope systematics in ocean island basalts. Submitted to Nature
Compilation of global major and trace element compositional data for clinopyroxenes from mantle xenoliths from 972 locations worldwide, originally downloaded from the GEOROC database (https://georoc.eu/; accessed 14 July 2020). Each location includes multiple samples and analyses. To exclude unreliable samples, we used only clinopyroxenes with 40–60 wt.% SiO2, <40 wt.% MgO, <30 wt.% FeOT, <26 wt.% CaO, and oxide totals of 98.5–101.5 wt.%. Elements missing from >60% of the entire dataset were not considered. The dataset contains 21,605 observations (rows) corresponding to clinopyroxene major element analyses (SiO2, TiO2, Al2O3, Cr2O3, FeOT, CaO, MgO, MnO, and Na2O), and 2,967 rows of trace element analyses (including Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Ni, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Ba, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Hf, Ta, Pb, Th, and U). Database as published in Qin et al. (2022).
