respective assemblages and mineral chemistry demonstrating the effect of small-scale changes in melt composition and magma storage conditions between these two islands. We suggest that the unusual petrological and geochemical characteristics of Grenada magmas are a result of proximity to the South American continent and associated localized thickening of the oceanic lithosphere. This increases the depth of magma generation and is reflected in the elevated LREE/ HREE of the Grenada lavas, indicating that last equilibration with a garnet lherzolite source occurred at a depth of � 60 km.
