Melting experiments of a representative mantle composition doped with some key trace elements were conducted under hydrous conditions at pressures to 20 GPa. The results demonstrate that only ~5-25% of garnet fractionation and relatively low pressures (<8 GPa) and low temperatures (~1300-1500°C) are required to produce Al-depleted Barberton-type komatiites (>3.5 Ga) in the solidifying hydrous magma ocean. This suggests that the Archean mantle was much cooler than so far believed from the origin of the komatiites based on anhydrous experiments.
