Data report : major-element chemistry of Hole 896a glass

Description: 
Ocean Drilling Program Hole 896A (1°13.01'N, 83°43.39'W) is in 3440 m of water east of the Galapagos Platform in the equatorial eastern Pacific Ocean. At this site in 5.9 Ma crust, basement rocks were recovered over the depth range of 195.1 meters below seafloor (mbsf) to 469 mbsf. These rocks are mostly pillow lavas, but massive flows, breccias and dikes are also present. Many of the lavas and flows have quenched glass on their exteriors, and breccias commonly contain glass. Glass was analyzed by electron microprobe in six laboratories as part of shore-based studies of the rocks. These analyses are collected here so that all the chemical analyses are available in one publication. The analyses are interpreted in individual publications elsewhere in this volume.
