| 1. | Xenoliths of peridotite are common in kimberlite and in some basalt.
|
| 2. | The mantle part of the lithosphere consists largely of peridotite.
|
| 3. | Minor amounts of Ni sulfides are found in mantle peridotites.
|
| 4. | Effects of metasomatism in mantle peridotite can be either modal or cryptic.
|
| 5. | Pyroxenites are also found as layers within masses of peridotite.
|
| 6. | The basanite to hawaiite basaltic flows contain xenoliths of peridotite.
|
| 7. | Magnesium-rich olivine ( forsterite ) favors production of magnesite from peridotite.
|
| 8. | Cumulate peridotites are also formed in komatiite lava flows.
|
| 9. | Layered intrusions with cumulate peridotite are typically associated with sulfide or chromite ores.
|
| 10. | Ronda Peridotites outcrop in the western Internal Betics in the Alpuj�rride thrust sheet.
