Abstract
- In recent days, discrimination diagrams have been widely used for tracing the tectonic settings and origins of basalts from orogenic belts. However, conventional discrimination diagrams are not accurate enough. Here, we reported six new discrimination diagrams obtained from the global database using data mining methods. For most individual diagrams, island arc basalt can be nearly 100% was identified, whereas ocean island basalt and mid-ocean ridge basalt can be discriminated from each other with less than 10% of overlap, under a confidence coefficient of 85%. Using the six new discrimination diagrams together, basalts of different origins can be efficiently identified.
