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.
