Figure 5

BSE images of 400 W specimen. (a–c) are an overview of its fully-molten, partially-molten and sintered areas. (a) Depicts many dendritic patterned silicate (DPS) formations in the partially-molten area. (e,f) are the details of the box in (d) showing large dendritic plagioclase (Pl) crystal growth and the formation of SPFe particles from an olivine (Ol) grain. (e,f) also show the trace of SPFe particle exsolution from the dark rim of an olivine (Ol) grain (see the dark rim near the orange curves).
