Convection and crystal settling in sills

Convection and crystal settling in sills

Gravity settling of crystals denser than the liquid, and convection, have long been accepted as two of the most fundamental physical porcesses influencing the evolution and differentiation of magmas. Convection and crystal settling in basic and ultrabasic sills are examined.
