Igneous Petrology Series: Lesson 2 - Element compatibility & partition coefficients

[@johnsikes320]

Nice job on this video!

William i would like to reference this data directly do you by chance have the resources used for and in this video?

[@WillDSmith95]

Hi Evan, you should consider textbooks such as Winters principles of igneous and metamorphic petrology or Rollinsons geochemical data. Both are filled with useful info on these subjects!

Hi William.. What is "TNT Anomaly" and what does it tell us when it's positive or negative?

Thanks a lot, it is a helpfull lectures. But I need to know how to calculate partition coefficient for any element, if I just have whole rock analysis? Thanks

[@WillDSmith95]

Hi Refaey, thanks for the support 👍 I'm afraid to calculate partition coefficients of elements you would need to know the concentrations of the element in equilibrated phases. GERM is a good data repository that has loads of partition coefficients listed. Hope this helps!
