From: Interplay of irreversible reactions and deformation: a case of hydrofracturing in the rodingite–serpentinite system

Fig. 6

Compositional cross section across the reaction zone between serpentinite and rodingite (131019-2). a Compositional variation of Fe-rich diopside in the “two-diopside zone”. b Compositional variation of Fe-poor diopside in the “two-diopside zone”; data outside this zone are the same as those in a. The diopside is homogeneous in the serpentinite, whereas it becomes quite heterogeneous both in the reaction zone and in the rodingite. Serrated variations in Ca and Al are notable in the reaction zone, and Fe-rich and -poor diopsides coexist in the rodingite and also in the reaction zone close to the rodingite (in the region entitled “two-diopside zone” in the figure)
