Extreme maldistribution of high field strength elements along subduction zones revealed by baddeleyite aggregates in serpentinite

Abstract Serpentinization along subducting plates induces mechanical mixing of diverse rocks and interaction with compositionally distinct fluids, which is often accompanied by the formation of rare mineral species. In this study, newly discovered baddeleyites in the Higuchi serpentinite body (HSB),...
