Coexisting low- and high-Ca pyroxene compositions are related to temperature allowing two-pyroxene geothermometry (Davidson and Lindsley, 1985). Geothermometry suggests a minimum reservoir temperature of 155xC with indications up to 225xC. Previous geothermometry work on Pumpernickel has produced reservoir temperature estimates ranging from 150 degrees C (302 degrees F) to 218 degrees C. |
