MAGMA
1. MAGMA origina) Melting of the Lithosphere : Subduction zone, Ridge,
Mantle plumes and Hot spots

° Maximum at center 6500° CRadioactive decay : Heat accumulates from decay, this
Friction : Heat is generated in subduction zones
c) Heat transfer : Heat is transferred outwards mainly by 3 processes :
– –
Heat flow is measured by special instruments. Heat flow is foundhighest at the mid-ocean ridges, lowest in subduction zones.
d) Effect of water content :
Presence of water decreases melting point of the rocks

f Movement of Ma ma : Ma ma has less densit than countr
rocks; therefore it moves upwards, by melting the rocks above,which is the roof of magma chamber. This process is called
STOPING .

2. Magma composition : Depending on the plate where magma
forms by melting rocks, there are mainly 3 types of magmas.
: u u z -
b) FELSIC magma : Continental plates

3. Coolin of ma ma : Ma ma loses heat b conduction and
convection. If magma reaches to Earth surface, further loss of heat occurs by radiation. Thus magma gradually cools down.
4. Crystallization of minerals from liquid magma : As magma
cools down, ions of various elements in the hot liquid begin to, .
The earliest forming minerals are OLIVINE ( Fe, Mg silicate ).
They are followed by PYROXENE, AMPHIBOLE and BIOTITEminerals. Parallel to them are PLAGIOCLASE FELDSPARS.
Latest forming minerals are MUSCOVITE, ORTHOCLASE andQUARTZ.
This sequence of crystallization was first discovered by a famousmineralogist / petrologist called BOWEN. Therefore it is knownas the BOWEN’s Reaction Series.

5. Changes in magma composition : In several ways theoriginal magma composition may be altered.
a) Crystal settl ing and differentiation : Early formedcrystals may settle to the lower part of the magma chamber,
,liquid with a different composition.

b) Stoping and assimilation of inclusions : Assimilated,
original composition. Unassimilated fragments arecalled XENOLITH.

about 900° C , melting will occur only of minerals whichhave a low melting point. Thus, this magma will be
.
d) Mixing (mingling) of magmas : As two differentma mas rise u wards b sto in , the ma meet andget mixed. Intermediate magmas are mostly formed inthis way.
6. Texture (grain size) due to cooling time : The length of cooling time of magma affects the size of the mineral grains.Long time (several millions of years) produces large crystals.Short time (several hundreds of 1000 years) produces smallgrains. Very fast cooling (several hours) produces glass, with no
crystals.
