Serpentinite’s role in geochemical recycling during subduction. Alpine serpentines of various metamorphic facies potentially record element transfer and fluid circulation in a subduction zone, as deep as 100-150 km. During oceanic metamorphism, it incorporates fluid-mobile elements (B, Li, As, Sb, Rb, Ba, Cs, Sr, U et Pb) following fluid movements. Then, the results from a…
