Pyroxenites are estimated to comprise around 5% of the lithospheric mantle, both in oceanic and subcontinental settings. Because they are both geochemically diverse and geochemically distinct from their enclosing mantle peridotites, understanding pyroxenite formation and evolution is crucial to evaluating mantle heterogeneity and evolution. Highly siderophile elements (HSE) and Os isotopes have been shown to be highly fractionated in pyroxenites, making them suitable as tracers for interaction between melts associated with pyroxenite formation and adjacent peridotite. Stable isotopes of transition metals, such as Zn and Cu, have recently been shown to record fractionation during melt generation and differentiation, and coupled with HSE and...
