Scientific paper

In continental and oceanic intraplate basaltic rocks, the Zr / Hf ratio is frequently higher than the chondritic value and varies over a large range of 38-87. The ratio increases with the La / Sm ratio and, in each volcanic locality, is positively correlated with the degree of silica undersaturation of the basaltic rocks. The variation of the Zr / Hf ratios probably reflects a heterogeneous mantle source variably metasomatized by carbonate-rich fluids.
