| Summary: | This hole provides a reference section for correlation of in situ petrological and geophysical studies with regional crustal models based on dredged samples and remote surveys; also, at least for the medium-spreading-rate Costa Rica rift, it confirms that the main features of the upper part of an idealized ophiolite sequence occur in the oceanic crust. Basement geochemistry and alteration are briefly discussed. |
