RT Journal Article T1 Características composicionaies y procesos de evolución magmàtica en el complejo volcánico Sur - II de Fuerteventura (Islas Canarias) T1 Compositional features and fractionation processes in the Southern Volcanic Complex II Fuerteventura (Canary Islands) A1 Cubas, C. R. A1 Hernán, Francisco A1 Ancochea, Eumenio A1 Brändle, José Luis A1 Huertas, María José AB The Southern Volcanic Complex II consists mainly of basalts with some trachybasalls and basaltic trachyandesltes. Its lower sequence is formed by middle alkaline rocks whilst in the upper one only m ild ly alk ali H y + O I -n o rm a tive rocks are found. The variations in com positio n are largely explained by similar crystal fractionation models for both the lower and the upper sequences. The variation among d iffe re nt basaltic types is due to d iffe re n t extractio n rates o f ab out 10-15%, o liv in e being th e domin ant phase, followed, in a lesser proportion, by dinopyroxene. The difference between the most differentiated basalts and trachybasalts or basaltic trachyandesiles could be explained by extraction of dominant clinopyroxene with plagioclase and Fe-Ti oxide PB Sociedad Geológica de España YR 1996 FD 1996 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10272/12250 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10272/12250 LA spa DS Repositorio Institucional de la Universidad de Huelva RD 30 may 2026
