Samples from the oldest sites occupied appeared to exhibit the least overall effects of alteration, and the intensity of alteration varied from site to site. Previous investigations of low-temperature alteration in oceanic basement samples have been restricted by the myopic perspective provided by single drill holes or dredge collections. Combining core samples from Leg 187 and dredge samples from the AAD collection at Oregon State University (USA) offers the unique opportunity to investigate mineral and bulk chemical changes attending alteration of basalt over a range of ages from 0 to 28 Ma. Results of this research indicate that there is a general increase in the intensity of alteration as the basalts age and move off axis, but that this relationship is somewhat veiled by the dominating control on alteration intensity dictated by variations in permeability.completedIgneous and metamorphic petrologyalterationAustralian-Antarctic discordancebasaltsCenozoiccoresglasseshydrothermal alterationICP mass spectraigneous rocksIndian OceanLeg 187low temperaturemass spectrametasomatismMid-Indian Ridgemineral compositionOcean Drilling ProgrampermeabilityQuaternarySoutheast Indian RidgespectratemperatureTertiaryvolcanic rockswhole rockurn:org.iodp:exp:187urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignEnglishgeoscientificInformation126.0000135.0000-46.0000-41.1500Available only on CD-ROM in PDF format and on the Web in PDF or HTMLapplication/pdfunknownSEDIS Publication Catalogueana.macario@awi.dehttp://sedis.iodp.org/pub-catalogue/informationpointOfContacthttp://www-odp.tamu.edu/publications/187_SR/VOLUME/CHAPTERS/206.PDFdownload
