Hi all,
I would like to ask you whether you know what the substitution can Li participate on in mantle conditions in olivine. Li is known to be enriched in this mineral substituting for Mg2+ which is of similar size. But the charge should be somehow compensated. Has anybody some ideas?
Thanks for help.
Cheers,
Tomas
