Abstract
âºEarly Cretaceous volcanism in Syria marks the last instance of the Mesozoic Levant magmatism. âºRelatively primitive lavas, with small degrees of fractional crystallisation and crustal contamination. âºPartial melting of lithospheric mantle which contained amphibole-rich metasomatic veins. âºLow-solidus mantle source does not require a mantle plume to melt. âºRift-related volcanism.
