Abstract
Whole-rock trace element, Nd, Sr, Pb and O isotope compositions of the xenoliths and host alkaline basalts indicate different mantle sources for these two suites of rocks. The xenoliths were derived from shallow lithospheric sources, whereas the alkaline basalts originated from a deeper asthenospheric mantle source.
