This is a proposal to study the primary mineralogy and                  composition of an upper mantle peridotite and its subsequent                    alteration. The peridotite samples are obtained from a 39.5 meter               section of drill core obtained during ODP Leg 103 at the Galicia                Margin. The study will involve petrographic and microprobe                      analyses of approximately 50 thin sections cut from various parts               of the core, focusing on the central and least altered                          peridotite, in order to characterize the alteration mineralogies                and textures, and to determine relict igneous minerals. Sr                      isotopic analyses will be performed in an attempt to determine                  the age of implacement and to further characterize the alteration               history of the core.  Some attempt will be made to incorporate                  these data into a coherent tectonic picture  by estimating the P-               T of the alteration assemblages.  Studies such as this are of                   fundamental importance to understanding the tectonic and thermal                evolution of the oceanic crust and upper mantle, and its                        penetration and alteration by circulating fluids.
