These samples are fragments of basaltic pillow lavas and sheet flows. These samples are mainly porphyritic with fine-grained, and euhedral to anhedral pheno crysts of plagioclase, olivine and pyroxene. The matrix contains microcrystalline plagioclase, olivine and pyrox ene, in which tabular plagioclase microphenocrysts occur with a radical texture. Whole rock major and rare earth elements data of these samples show that ratios of K/Ti range from 0. 071 to 0. 091, and La/Sm from 0. 52 to 0. 70, suggesting that they are normal mid-ocean ridge basalt ( N-MORB). Plagioclase compositions range from An7%-7s to Ang6, while those of olivine range from Fogs to Fog4- In comparison of earlier study on basalt samples along SWIR (49°E -70°E), samples in this study are featured with much more depletion in light rare earth elements, Na, and K/Ti, but higher Fes. These data indicate that mantle melting in the study area occu in higher degree and at deeper depth. Furthermore, petrologic and mineralogic features of basalts at 49. 6°E and 50. 5°E suggest that magma activity and source in the study area are complex.
