Summary
| Description |
English:
Schematic diagrams showing the principles behind fractional crystallisation in a magma. While cooling, the magma evolves in composition because different minerals crystallize from the melt.
1
: olivine crystallizes;
2
: olivine and pyroxene crystallize;
3
: pyroxene and plagioclase crystallize;
4
: plagioclase crystallizes. At the bottom of the magma reservoir, a cumulate rock forms.
