Herman Ilboudo, Sâga Sawadogo, G. Hubert Zongo, Séta Naba, Urbain Wenmenga, Martin Lompo
Predominant volcano-plutonic (mafic–felsic) activity is expressed in the eastern Banfora Belt. The geochemical signature shows different geodynamic settings: (1) mafic rocks are tholeiitic, subalkaline and show high-Mg tendency, whereas pyroxenolite (MgO c. 15.4 wt%) has komatiite affinity; (2) felsic volcanic rocks are subalkaline; and (3) gra(...)
