The parental magmas of some high-Cr chromitites were from LREE-depleted mantle without notable subduction modification.
Pyroxenite veins in the Kop ophiolite were generated in the context of lithosphere-asthenosphere interaction.
High-temperature fluid activities caused the concave REE patterns of dunites and low-Al clinopyroxenes in them.
The first batches of high-Cr chromitites possibly formed between the early and late stages of proto-forearc spreading.
