Abstract

D/H ratios of phlogopites and amphiboles from rocks of possible mantle origin and also those of water from (glass?) inclusions in olivines of the olivine nodule and peridotites have been determined. The mantle water seems to have aδD value of —85±10‰ on the basis of results of inclusions in the nodule-olivine.
