Major element composition of glass samples from Maria S. Merian cruise MSM75 along the Reykjanes Ridge

During the MSM75 expedition on the Reykjanes Ridge, basaltic rocks and glass fragments were sampled using the remotely operated vehicle ROV PHOCA (Geomar) and a wax corer. Geochemical analyses have been performed on glass fragments of 171 samples, including 29 collected during ROV dives and 141 using the wax corer (VSR) and 1 sample using a grab (VVG). The major element contents of glasses were determined on a JEOL JXA-8200 Superprobe electron microprobe at GEOMAR using a 15 kV accelerating voltage on December 19th, 2018 and May 21st and 22nd, 2019. Matrix glasses were analyzed using a beam diameter of 5 μm, 10 nA beam current, and VGA 99 (USNM 113498/1) and VG-2 (USNM 111240) as standards (Jarosewich, 2002). Peak and background counting times were generally 20 s and 10 s, respectively.
