Fig. 5

Partial melts are derived from 10% batch melting of an orthopyroxene-dominated mantle cumulates mixed with varying amounts (wt.%) of trapped instantaneous residual liquid (TIRL). The F/Cl ratio of the non-KREEP Mg-suite parental magma is shown for reference as the orange band. Opx, orthopyroxene; Plag, plagioclase.
