| | |  Ultramafic to mafic layered intrusions - Rift magmatism: Encyclopedia II - Ultramafic to mafic layered intrusions - Causes of layeringThe causes of layering in large ultramafic intrusions include convection, thermal diffusion, assimilation of wall rocks and fractional crystallization.
The primary mechanism for forming cumulate layers is of course the accumulation of layers of mineral crystals on the floor or roof of the intrusion. Rarely, plagioclase is found in cumulate layers at the top of intrusions, having floated to the top of a much denser magma. Here it can form anorthosite layers.
Accumulation occurs as crystals are formed by fractional crystallisatio ...
