CHAPTER 1:
INTRODUCTION
i) Location of
In 1972, a program was initiated by the scientists
of Dalhousie University and Lamont-Doherty Geological
Observatory which involved deep drilling into oceanic
islands in order to better understand their structure,
petrology, and geochemistry.

CHAPTER 2:
GEOLOGICAL SETTING
i) Regional Tectonics
The position of the Azores as an island group astride
the volcanically active Mid-Atlantic Ridge makes their tectonic setting particularly pertinent to a discussion of
their geology in terms of present theories about plate tectonics.

just south of its intersection with the Azores; and (5) the
broadening of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge into the Azores Platform
on the eastern flank of the ridge.

the area of the Azores (Krause, 1965).

has proposed the existence of a mantle plume located under'neath the Azores; Schilling (1975) has inferred the existence
of a mantle "blob".

feldspar present as the minerals sanidine and/or anorthoclase. The sanidine is present as grey, subhedral featureless grains with very small axial angle (2V
0 - 4), and
21
rectangular or square grains rather than as the needlelike and lath-shaped microlites of the volcanic rocks.
The intrusives are porphyritic, with plagioclase comprising
the phenocryst phase.
The intrusives, AUS 098.5 and 111.2 are close in
composition to the trachybasalts, and as such, do not
have phenocrysts of clinopyroxene or of olivine,
although AUS 098.5 appears to contain some remnants of
olivine grains. Some small grains of potassium feldspar
appear to be present also.
The rock names used in this table and in the text of this thesis
were determined on the basis of thin section identification.
The nomenclature used is that of Barley (1974) and Wilkinson (1974).
The term "trachyandesite" is the potassic equivalent of a mugearite
and implies that the plagioclase contains less than 50% An. The term
"trachybasalt implies that the plagioclase has An greater than 50%,
and is used as an equivalent to andesine basalt, olivine andesite, and
hawaiite, although hawaiite is usually used to denote a sodic nature,
and can have Si0 less than 50%.

CHAPTER 4:
CHEMICAL STUDY
i) Sample Selection
a) Volcanic Flows and Intrusives.
The volcanic flows selected for major and trace
element analysis were chosen to try to represent the
divisions of the core noted in the core log descriptions:
Subaerial Sequences I, II, and III, the Transition Sequence,
and the Subaqueous Sequence. Much of the core was sampled
by G.K. Muecke for analysis forK, U, and Th. These
sample powders, with the exception of the pyroclastics
and AUL 001.1, AUL 030.4, and AUL 036 1 were used for the
major and trace element analyses. Each sample represents
4 to 6 transverse cores spaced over the thickness of the
unit. Two intrusive units, AUS 098.5 and AUS 111.2 were
also analysed. The method of sample preparation is
included in Appendix I
Table 1, which was presented in Chapter 3, lists
the rock units which were selected for analysis& Each
division of the core has been represented as presented
in Table 3. Only those chemical analyses whose totals are
within the range 98.5 to 101.5.are included in Tables 1
and 3.
b) Pyroclastic Units
The pyroclastic units present in the core are
almost completely altered to clays, and as such, are not

The trace elements which were analysed were as

performed by Dr. Ian Gibson of Bedford College, London.
The methods of analysis and a discussion of errors
are presented in Appendices I and II.
iii) Tables of Results
a) Major E}ements
The analyses of the major elements have been
presented along with their C.I.P .. W. norms in six Tables

CHAPTER 5:
PLOTS OF RESULTS
ing pages contain a series of plots which attempt to illustrade trends and variations inherent in the chemical data.
A summary of the salient points regarding the variations is
also included.
i) Elements Versus Depth
Chemical changes in the eruptive products with time
are common features of volcanoes.
Therefore, to demonstrate
these changes, plots of the major oxides (as weight percentages) versus depth (in metres) in the drillcore have been
made and presented as Figures 11, 12, and 13.

Pearce and Cann (1973) have proposed a method of

Samples of basalts are analysed for Ti, Zr, Y, and Nb, which
are less mobile trace elements and thus can be used with
altered samples.

The following points can be summarized from this
chapter:
1) The plots of the elements versus depth show
maxima and minima for the trachytes and trachybasalts.
For the basalts, there appears to be increasing Al

islands and continental basalts in the field of "withinplate" basalts; the Y/Nb ratios for these rocks show
them
to be of alkaline affinity.
7) A plot of CaO versus Y shows an L-type trend
which involves Y-enrichment which could be attributed
to clinopyroxene-plagioclase fractionation (Lambert and
Holland, 1974) and is an
indic~tion
of alkaline affinity.

in order to represent the compositions of the phenocrysts
co-existing in these lavas. This diagram shows the greater
difference in the composition of plagioclase than there
is in clinopyroxene grains in AUL 020.3 and AUL 022.le
With the exception of the core of the clinopyroxene
analysed in AUL 062.2, the clinopyroxenes appear to be
uniform in composition. Also, the decrease in the jadeite
content of the clinopyroxene between the core and the rim
of the zoned grains in AUL 062.2 is evident as a move away
from the Fs corner towards the Wo-En side of the diagram.
The position of the clinopyroxenes is similar to that
illustrated by Barberi et al.,
from Gough Island and from Japan. The core of the zoned
pyroxene from AUL 062.2 shows a different chemistry from
the remaining clinopyroxenes, which could indicate that the
core represents a xenocryst rather than a phenocryst, and
was rimmed with a different pyroxene in situ. However, the
absence of such clinopyroxene in the most highly evolved
rocks suggests that these are not xenocrysts, but they
could be a higher pressure phase.

the high alkali content is a feature of Sao Miguel, and
also of theother islands represented from the group, since
all plot above MacDonald's (1968) dividing line between
alkaline and tholeiitic basalts on Hawaii. It should
be noted that there are trachyandesites of intermediate
silica content, a rock type which is conspicously absent
from the analyses of the rocks from the drill core.

The occurrence of tholeiites on oceanic islands
is rare. Much of the studies of oceanic islands involve
rock types typical of alkaline associations. Some islands
are potassic in nature, others are sodic. Gough Island
(LeMaitre, 1962), Tristan da Cunha {Baker et al., 1964),
and Jan Mayen {Noe-nygaard, 1974) are notable as potassiumrich islands. Bouvet {Baker, 1967), the Cape Verde Islands,
and Madeira (McBirney and Gass, 1967) are notably sodic.

For Bouvet, two basalts and a trachyte
taken from Baker (1973) are used. The Canary Islands are
represented by four basalts and two trachybasalts
(Ibarrola, 1969). The analyses for Ascension of two basalts,
one hawaiite, one mugearite, and one trachyte are from
Daly (1925). The rocks from Madeira are represented by
six basalts, nine hawaiites, one mugearite, and one essexite
from Hughes and Brown (1972)

and are not brought to the surface or, the magmatic evolution process is biased so that basalts and trachytes are
produced with the exclusion of trachyandesites.
Cann (1968) has suggested that the final differentiates of a volcano are more water- and gaseous-rich, and
therefore, final eruptions are biased in favour of the more
explosively-extruded acid products.
71
Thus,
(2)
the trachyandesites
have not been produced and thus are not found in the drillcore, or (3) the intermediate rocks are represented in this
drillhole by the pyroclastics.

islands, in addition to the active volcanism along the MidAtlantic Ridge, the Azores Platform appears to represent an
anomalously high degree of magmatic activity.
It is common
practice to try to explain oceanic islands in terms of current theories about plate tectonics.
Morgan {1971) originally proposed that a mantle plume,
i.e. upwelling of hot magma material from the earth's mantle,
occurs beneath the Azores.

DISCUSSION OF ERRORS
i) Major Elements
Analyses of these rocks were made at three different
times: May, 1974; August, 1974, and February, 1975. With
each batch of analyses, a standard rock was run, and
comparisons were made with the "accepted" values as a
check on the validity of the analyses.
The standard rock, GSJ-JB-1, a basalt, was analysed
at three different times. The results are presented in
Table A-1, along with the accepted values of Flanagan (1973)
and Abbey (1973). The results of Abbey (1973) are on an
H 0--free basis and therefore are not directly comparable
