partial melting
partial melting Incomplete melting of parent rock, characteristically producing a
melt whose chemical composition differs from that of the parent material. It is thought that partial-melting processes play a major role in generating more-defined liquids from less-evolved ones, so that many
basalts may be the result of partial melting in the (
ultrabasic) upper
mantle, and many
granites may have derived partly or completely from the partial melting of
continental crust (
anatexis). Partial melting preferentially enriches melts with
incompatible elements. In a
subduction zone, rocks of
intermediate composition may form (e.g.
andesites). With increasing temperature and pressure, the subducted
oceanic crust (of
basic composition) first undergoes
metamorphism and then begins to melt or release watery fluids; this material rises into the overlying mantle, which may also begin to melt, giving rise to intermediate
magma.
