... the Boston Creek Flow iron-rich basalt, Archean Abitibi Greenstone Belt, Ontario. The magnetic anomalies confirm the presence of magnetite-enriched zones (up to 20 modal%), and reveal that they are ovoid in shape, up to 10 m in size, and along strike from each other in the central gabbro-diorite layer...

Variation in δD‰ values for igneous amphibole from the Boston Creek ferropicrite compared to other major rock-types globally. Values for the ferropicrite amphibole exceed SMOW and igneous amphiboles from other Abitibi units, and even the Nushan xenoliths (Deloule et al. 1991a, 1995, Wagner et al. 1995, Valley et al. 1998, Xia et al. 2002, Stone et al. 2003). Acronyms: MORB: mid-ocean-ridge basalts, IAB: island-arc basalt, CFB: continental flood basalt, and OIB: ocean-island basalt.

Magmatic degassing model for the Boston Creek ferropicritic melt at 1000°C. Partial melting in the mantle imparts a primary magmatic δD value of −60‰ on the magma (1). Gases escaped from the melt as the reduced species H during magmatic emplacement (2). The gas/melt fractionation-factor for the H isotope is negative, and the escaped H gas is isotopically lighter, with lower δD values, whereas the residual H2O is heavier, with higher δD values. With progressive exsolution of volatiles, δD values for degassed melt shifted from the initial mantle-type value to progressively higher and, in some grains, a positive value (3).

...W. E. Stone; L. S. Jensen; W. R. Church Abstract The Boston Creek Flow is a thick, Archean layered basaltic komatiite lava flow located 16 km south of Kirkland Lake, Ontario, within the Abitibi greenstone belt. It is superficially similar to the layered flows of Munro Township in that it consists...

A, B. Major-element plots showing the composition of magnesiohastingsite (VIAl < Fe3+, Leake et al. 1997) from the Boston Creek ferropicrite (BCF), consistent with an igneous origin. C. Major-element plot showing higher Fe3+ content relative to Mg# for the igneous amphibole from the Boston Creek ferropicrite compared to amphiboles from thick, differentiated ultramafic sills in the area. The higher Fe3+ content for the ferropicrite amphibole suggests an increased state of melt oxidation during crystallization.
