rift zones. pared to mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB) [1–7]. Hot involves low-volume, scattered, sporadic eruptions [12]. With rift locations determined by pre-existing zones of weakness in the lithosphere [13,14], it is improbable that Earth and Planetary Science Letters⁎Keywords: continental rift; mantle flow; anisotropy; hotspot; plume; plum-pudding 1
