Halogens in the Earth’s Mantle: What We Know and What We Don’t

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
The Role of Halogens in Terrestrial and Extraterrestrial Geochemical Processes

Part of the book series: Springer Geochemistry ((SPRIGEO))

Abstract

The Earth’s mantle is known to contain significant amounts of volatile elements, such as hydrogen (H), carbon (C) and halogens. In the past decades our knowledge about the storage of H and C in mantle minerals, and their behavior during melting of mantle peridotite has improved considerably. In contrast, the behavior of other volatile elements, such as the halogens (Cl, F, I or Br) in the mantle is not so well constrained. Here we review the available experimental, analytical and theoretical data on halogen storage in mantle rocks and minerals, halogen concentrations in nominally halogen free minerals, and halogen partitioning during magmatic processes.
