Rare earths in Hawaiian basalts
Schilling JG and Winchester JW. 1966. Rare earths in Hawaiian basalts. Science. 153(3738):867-870
Rare-earth elements have been determined by neutron activiation analysis in 20 basalts from the Hawaiian Islands. The abundance patterns of these elements form groups coinciding closely with groupings based on other evidence, and a fractional crystallization mechanism for change in rare earth abundance is implied.
